Paul, you still haven't returned my call. I know you said you would be in Cardiff this weekend but I do think / call me back. / simply / Monday morning / flat / one o'clock / arranged. I'm / Loxley / really get suspicious if I pull out of that. / I'll see you / tomorrow / And don't bother / my phone will be off. Bye.

.... but to let us read about it in the papers. / Do you want that last croissant, Brian? / I'd better not. / Do you think they are doing the right thing? / Well, / the milking must be taking up so much of Tom's time these days. Probably / sound business / Jenny. / poor Jill / embarassed. / Sorry? / shop on Thursday / Oh yeah. / She said / bridge / Is there any coffee left? / want me to make some more? / That's fine. / And, of course, mom knew about it all along. / do feel / curtesy to tell us / before it was common knowledge around the village. / I imagine / terms / themselves / Yeah, I suppose so. / such a huge change, isn't it? / I'm sure / get / good price / herd anyway. / marketable these days. / church this morning / Lilian said she'd to it. / about time she had chipped in. / about this agency business / who knows whether / any luck there.

I was so pleased to see the sparrows / come back / Really? / seemed / almost dissapeared the last couple of years. I was quite worried. / you know the one / covered / nest to Elona. The baby ones were making such a noise / lovely to watch. Luckily ... and ...'s / bird-watching days are over. / I've always been hopeless with birds. / I know, dear. / did try. / Robins, pigeons, blackbirds, .... / It's such a joy when you take the time to learn a bit about them. / Yeah, I'm sure. .... Mom? / Yes? / I was just wondering about Elona. / What about her? / Well, the fact is, she's leaving on Friday. And Jenny / agency / that's right. / You don't think / might be / useful stop-gap? / I don't. No. / Right. / Look. I told Jennifer, / capable of managing on my own. / I'm sure you are / So will you please stop fussing? / .... Fine. / I'm sorry if you think I'm being difficult. / No, not at all. / Good. .... You are feeling all right, are you, dear? / Yeah, yeah of course. Why? / Well, it's not quite like you to give up / so easily. / just / a bit tired. That's all. Trying to keep up with all the work involved in the paper mill. / does sound like a mammoth task / just a bit challenging. It'll be fine. / more than you can chew. / Not at all. I'm enjoying it. / Of course. You are such a good team, aren't you, you and Matt? / We are, yeah. / Thanks for coming to church with me. I do appreciate it, especially  / you are so busy. / pleasure, mom. To be honest, / feel better for it anyway. / Yeah. / Anyway, you've got your lovely holiday to look forward to, haven't you? / recharge your baterries. / Yeah. .... yeah I'm .... sure it will.

I suppose that / one thing you can say about all this / what's that? / Well, they can't lay their problems at our door, can they? / here you go / Oh, thanks. / How do you mean? / Well, whatever reasons Pat and Tony have for selling the herd, they, they  / dairy, can they? / past / to have a go / Well, I hope not. / so tired of being blamed / misfortunes / natural human tendency, I'm aftaid, darling. / not very attractive one. Anyway, I'm off to ... on the pickers / survive their first Saturday / Ambridge / I'll come with you. / Oh, right. / time / Rob / gets back from Germany / a lot to tell you. / I hope / good news, that's all.

There you are, Mrs potter. Sugar over there. / Help yourself to buiscuits / you are being busy / few people stay on / after the service. / yourself / break anyway. / you sure / top up your cup? / No, I'm fine. / I'm afraid Lilian's been ...ed by Mr. Honeywell. / Yeah. I noticed. / He never seems to / hearing aid / right way / I did try to help him earlier. / through / as I should know. / You do very well, Peggy. / Oh, I don't know, Jill. Sometimes it does feel quite a battle to make my voice heard. / Really? / particularly just at the moment / Oh, dear. / Jennifer can be very organizing, although I know she means well. / I'm sure she does. / But she's been so determined / finding / replacement for Elona. Lilian had a go / me, too / just now / moves away soon, doesn't she? / sure / does seem a shame / I'm so fond of her, and she has been wonderful with Jack. / I know. / I always / so much better / duty / she was so caring with him, really trying to understand and make him comfortable. / Change is difficult, isn't it? So, have you thought about how you manage when she goes? / Oh, I'm sure something will turn up / in the meantime / I'm perfectly capable of looking after myself. / Of course you are. / Nick's got her hands full / might be better if / didn't / until / very good though, weren't they / came / last hym / that's true / done, but they managed to contain / coloring / doesn't seem / charm / going to junior church. / Clarrie / really looking forward to / Flower Festival / all kinds of / arrangement / I'm sure it will be a lovely weekend. / And, hopefully, we should raise / for the organ / attracting the major donations. / So, how / getting on? / says / responses / rather slow so far / dear / early days yet, of course. / I've written out a, well, substantial cheque to give / fund, a thousand pounds. / Oh, that's wonderful, Peggy / It's a pleasure. Hopefully / help to get the ball rolling / I'm sure it will. / poor Llilian / He looks as if / she's obviously too good a listener.

Yes. Well, I should look forward to the next one then. .... Yes. .... Bye. / anyway / what was the problem? / caravan door. He just must have been over-vigorous / last night. / Ah well, / sort / out anyway / Yeah, I think so. / what did she want? / she was checking if I was / book club meeting this / And are you? / certainly not / It's not that. It's / fascinating Scandinavian thriller / So what's the problem? / Jim Lloyd / hosting the evening / That's why I'm boycotting it / that's very sweet of you / I mean, I appreciate your loyalty, but,  / bearing grudges / you may be able to / but I can't / perhaps I should / church / with mom after all. / Really? / Well / one place / guaranteed not to bump into him, isn't it?
