Ian has a go at Cindy about her going out last night and she says it was a friend of hers who had just split up with her boyfriend so she couldn't say no. Grant says hello to Michelle while she's at Mark's stall! He asks Mark how his head is. Michelle gets a phone call from work and says she's still not coming in. Gary asks her if it's because of what happened, and she says no. Ruth comes in to ask if she talked to Grant, she says she didn't get a chance and thought maybe she'd make things worse if she did. Ruth asks her to do it soon. Michelle doesn't look too thrilled! Pauline and Arthur come back from Greece - Arthur is burnt to a crisp! She asks why Michelle is off work and Michelle says she's taking annual leave, but Pauline doesn't believe it. Michelle has got a letter from Sharon and starts to write a reply but gives up after "Dear Sharon". Ricky has only half finished the decorating and Phil's back so he can't skive off work any more. Pat is cross about it. She asks David but he turns her down flatly and says he was never good with his hands. Roy says he'll get his friend in. Pat says Ricky is family, so Roy says Barry will do it - he's his family. Pat reluctantly agrees. Alan is trying to finish their decorating, but of course has trouble keeping awake as he's still working nights too. Mark goes into the Vic at lunchtime and orders a pint of lager. Grant says it's on the house as a thank you. Mark tries the lager - it tastes horrible and Mark thinks it's off. He offers it to Grant to try, but he takes his word for it. At this point Tiffany comes over saying someone's told her the lager's off and Mark says yes. Grant is holding Mark's drink and Tiffany very quickly tastes it as Grant stares at her oddly but can't say anything. She goes off to change it. It's quiz night and Cindy is worried, so goes to see David about the bloke from the other team. David says don't worry. Pauline asks Mark and Michelle to go with them to the quiz and Michelle tries her best to wriggle out of it, firstly saying that she has to reply to Sharon's letter. Pauline won't take no for an answer. They do the quiz, and David and Cindy know lots of the answers. Ian is impressed. David chats to Cindy alone, saying that obviously the pubs all use the same questions, and the bloke who probably didn't see them won't dare to challenge them as he was obviously cheating himself. Peggy announces that they've raised £150 from the quiz so far and presents Arthur with a cheque for the Flowering Wilderness. Michelle asks Grant to speak to her in private about last night. Grant raises his eyebrows. She says she doesn't want any comments she made about Mark to go any further. Grant says he doesn't know what they've been talking about, so of course it won't. Kathy is still being incredibly nasty to Phil, and he's obviously totally at a loss as to why. Kathy says she has to go to the dentist, and has her baby tests, but won't get the results for 2 weeks. She talks to Pat, who says she has to tell Phil, but Kathy wants to wait until after the results, and says it's tough. Pat says he will need an explanation soon! Michelle phones up Sharon and is talking about the job in Alabama and how it will be quite close to her. |
