Helen's not sure she can go through everything again. Kirsty suggests talking to Anna when she's back.

Bert tends to Carol's garden while she's on holiday and he'll do her entries from the garden for the Flower and Produce Show. Joe's not entering but will be back in future years to challenge Bert. Like he said at his party, he intends going on forever! Joe tells Bert that Clarrie's got high hopes for her chutney for the Freda Fry Memorial Award.

Adam spends his evening in The Bull. Kenton chats about the government guaranteeing farm subsidies for a while yet but Adam's not in the mood for talking.

Their team name is The Old Contemptibles, which Adam finds appropriate.
