麻豆约拍

David is taking Ruth shopping - for a whole new outfit. They're both enthusiastic about the anaerobic digester scheme.

Brenda comes round to see Mike. She needs to tell him straight away that she's not at all happy about his plans for splitting the house with Roy and Hayley. Mike is surprised, and wonders why, and Brenda tries to explain. She doesn't have a permanent home - she's living in Tom's house really. Mike says there will always be a room for her at Willow Farm, and Brenda says that it won't be her room, so it won't be the same. She points out that Roy is getting a big advantage here, since it could be years until Brenda can afford a mortgage. Finally, Brenda admits that it's about even more than that. It's about her mum, too.

Mike is left with a quandary. He talks to Jolene about it in the pub, and when she complains about Lilian, he says she should take her own advice, and deal with it. Go ahead and ask her when she's leaving!
