Well, hello there. I wondered if we were going to be together tonight and it looks as if we are. I do hope your usual real life issues aren't going to drag you away from episode 2.

I've had a shocking week this week. And my dad has just started tapping the nails into MY coffin!

How kind of him to think of you this way. Saves you having to do it yourself, and you probably wouldn't be feeling up to it when you needed it most.

Anyway, I had to go to the dentist this week, so that's almost as bad.

If only he was so thoughtful. But anyway...onwards and upwards. A bit more humour in tonight's episode.

So count your blessings, I guess. My lot are relatively OK, by their standards. I stole the mixed nuts already in case he doesn't think of any snacks.

Hello. Sorry you've had such a miserable week, OSP.

Sorry, I was too busy watching. Hello, AnneA. Hope things are OK with you. Are you on holiday now?

Marshall Lancaster who plays Chris gave up acting and runs his own construction company. What a waste of talent.

Not really, although the schools are on holiday, so I don't need to get up so early.

But perhaps a more reliable income?

I think the 'Guv' is trying too hard this week.

True but he is excellent in character. He could have put money into a scheme and made more that way.

He could.

What sort of scheme are we talking about here?

Anything that's better than being a plasterer which is the operation he's running now.

Maybe he likes being a plasterer - less stress, and fantastic money.

What was it you wanted to be when you grew up, then?

Might as well be, since they're only talking most of the time.

It's part of what makes LoM so good. The verbal interplay.
