David feels isolated and Brian hears rumblings of discontent.

Lynda's handing out watering advice for the hanging baskets at The Bull, ahead of the Britain in Bloom judging. She's disappointed in Kenton's feeble efforts at last week's committee meeting for the community games. She hopes he's now got some concrete plans. Kenton side-tracks her.

David helps Ruth pack up the car, ready for her to start the journey to Prudhoe.

Gerry Moreton's not happy at getting the agenda the day before a Borchester Land meeting. Brian apologises, and explains there's been a lot going on. Gerry understands that his family are priority but suggests that if Brian can't keep on top of things it might be time for someone else to take over the chair.

When Gerry later tries to suggest the dairy project could founder, bullish Brian tells him to go and plan how he'll spend all the money it will make.

David's annoyed when Eddie calls to ask him to start milking. He's doing a quote for a landscaping job and has got held up. Stressed David insists he gets to Brookfield immediately. But eventually David's pleased to hear that Ruth and the children have arrived safely at her mum's.
