Right. I'm back in action. / Oh, I didn't expect to see you again this afternoon, Mrs. Bellamy. / only / for forty winks / Yes. ... Quite some time ago, I assumed you'd fallen into a deep sleep / Hardly. But / apology if / life / difficult / Anthea / any good / think straight. / No. / such a terrible night. No sleep at all. I could not stop worrying. / Then you were wise to have a lie down / I've managed / a lot done / was peaceful. / Such as? / Organizing / plumber / No.14 T___ Street / going / He's there. Now. / Larry? / Yes. / Larry / gone straight over? He didn't try / off / we had a brief exchange about the schedule, but, then we agreed T___Street is the priority. / Well done, Anthea. / I've also arranged three quotes for re-decoration for the flat with a firm commitment on dates / I was going to do / but / you have already done / it still needs your approval. / Huh. Let's see / And, I spoke to Bernard Whistler about the paper mill. / You rang him? / No. He called us, with the asbestos results. / Why didn't you wake me? / mission, Mrs. Bellamy, your behavior was a little erratic this morning. / one of the things I was worrying about. / Would you like to hear what he said, then?

Sorry they are late, Kenton / What's happening? / your ___ is. We've had a shrinkwrap catastrophe. / Huh. / But it's all good now / afternoon / Hi, Jolene. Does / check and sign for them / Oh, OK. / Never hold up a woman in search of an engagement ring, Tom. / Oh, right. / See you. / Catch you later. / Yeah, bye. Happy hunting.

It is only white asbestos, why can't they get rid of it at once? / They have to follow set procedure, Mrs. Bellamy. / Which is? / survey / the specialist needs to know how much material they are dealing with, and precisely where it is in the building. / And we can't resume any structural work at all / ? / No. / take, Anthea? / It very much depends on how much asbestos they find. ... Bernard assured me Felpershire Environmental / start tomorrow and / within a day / why not this afternoon? / That wasn't an option / but you should have / perfectly standard. / got / the rest of the consortium / It was clear there was no advantage to be gained by waking you. So, I let you sleep on. / lord. I meant to be giving a progress report this week / how can I do that / not a breath of progress?

get me to the church, get me to the church / get me to the church / oh, slow down, Kenton. / Oh, sorry. / you don't actually wanna get married in church, do you? / No way. / Oh, that's a relief. / No. I want a simple ceremony, but a massive party afterwards / people keep asking / happening. / What do you reckon? Soonish? / suits me / I / any point in hanging about. / me neither. / has anyone fainted yet? / Huh? / when you told them. / Freda pulled quite a face. / Oh yeah? / Said we deserved each other. / Oh, dear. / I'm in hope / a compliment / nice things on my side / that's good / Joe Grundy nearly bought me a pint / Nearly? why didn't he actually get you one? / enough money / Otherwise, he would have been happy to treat me / I'm not / good intention / crafty old / says he's looking forward to / proper / quite right. We've got a lot to celebrate. / we have. / did you see the pics in the paper,  / baby / oh, yeah, yeah. Cute little thing, isn't he? He's perfected that royal wave already. / I wonder what / great grandma thinks / saw one on telly last night. / Yeah, I noticed. / lucky baby / Well, yeah / obviously / No, I mean, apart from where he is, I just think Kate and William will make a smashing mom and dad. / Oh yeah. they will be great. / Kenton, / Huh? / can't you overtake this slow coach? / Hey, hey, don't worry / still have / engagement ring / before we get there.

Sorry, Rob. Am I late? / Oh, no no. / I had a real backlog to deliver / massive problem / sausages / already / longer than I thought. / Don't worry, Tom. You are doing me a big favor. / no / you are. I've no idea where is the best places to go in the reserve / it's not that big. / when you don't know it. And / useful / someone in / pretend / real ones / be better. The only time I / normally / run / during / you won on Saturday, didn't you? / Oh, just about. Little / fell three / catch / a win is a win / I felt so unfit in the field. ... Shall we go in? / Oh, lead on. / Right. Well, if we head to the height first / well, whatever you think. / so, partly I'm here for exercise, and partly on business, / Huh huh. / to find out about your friend in Montreal / M__ __? / French-Canadian? / proud of it / he started with two or three cured meat / from his own livestock? / no, no, he's always been a processer / he is fanatical about sourcing. / That's key. / now he markets the whole deri range, and he's doing very well on it / I can push on like that / any more news from Belinghams? / I rang this morning. The second batch isn't going as fast as the first. / Huh. How big is the difference? / Not massive. ... Uh, how about a photo here? / Yeah. it's quite atmospheric. / oh, that's a s___ m___, isn't it? / Or a h___ m___ / no white lump, band under the throat / oh, you are right. / You said you weren't a T___. / you can't grow up in Ambridge and not know the difference. / so, uh, they are still selling? / Oh yes. / disastrous. / all you can ask / in your second week / I don't want to lose the momentum from the launch. / that won't happen / I'd be much happier if sales are still climbing. / that'll do for a start. / as long as you haven't nose-dived. / Oh, no, no. We haven't done that / perhaps you should / increasing production. / Already? / that's what / shall we ... ? / Sure. / Yeah. He says, what nearly killed his business in the early days wasn't thinking too big but too small. / Yeah? / Yeah. He was like you, just getting himself established. And then / his pastrami / trebled / order / overnight / that would / brilliant / except he was so boxed in / suppliers / get enough / for two months. By then / competitor completely cut him out. / so frustrating. / so, maybe you need to boost production now. / I can't really. / Why not? / I don't want a load of unsold stock piling up. / You've got  / frozen product, Tom, with a nice long shelf life. Where's the risk? / maybe. I'll chew it over.

Oh, that's better, seen in the light. / What do you think? / Beautiful cut, isn't it? / Uhm. / It's not too deep, not too shallow. / Hmm, very sparkly / yeah. I can't see any marks or flaws. / magnifier again, just to make sure? / Why bother? You can't spot it with a naked eye / Fair enough. / there's no real color to it / Is that good or bad? / It's good, especially for such a reasonable price. / Hey, money doesn't matter, Jolene. / Let's have a one / eat again / don't worry about the cost. I'll see to it. / this is pricy enough, thank you. ... Oh, I love how it sits / It could be a contender then? / No. / Huh. / This is the one. / You wanna buy it? / Yeah. / Now? / Yeah. it's gorgeous. It's my size. / You ... you don't wanna ... well, / What? / Well, / normal female thing? / which is? / come / buy this one anyway? / No. I've made up me mind. So, why mess around? / Oh, Jolene, you really are my perfect woman.

that was good timing. / Finding Jim and Christine? / yeah, saved you from / imagenary binoculars. / Yeah. ... I'll have to see this welcome pack when it's finished. / I'll email you a copy, Tom. / thanks / Of all the places I've seen, this could well be my favorite. / You said Helen suggested it. / Uh, yes. / I'm surprised she didn't want to show you around / well, you know / she comes here a lot with Henry. / yes. Well, uh,  / I can see why she likes it. It's absolutely beautiful. So peaceful. / The last time they were here, he came back soaked up to his thighs / Now that's a distinctive song. Some kind of wobbler / s___ or ___. We've had one or two by the lagoons this year. / I imagine he can be quite a handful. / Henry? Oh, totally. he was chasing a butterfly and slipped in the mud and didn't bother him in the slightest. / he was like that / tumble in the playground / He hardly ever cries, unless, of course / he can't have another piece of cake. / I really admire your sister for having / herself. Can't have been easy. / No. ... Mom and dad were dead against it. / Were they? / should / see them now / when Helen first, ... well / such a big decision. Going it alone. / Once she decided that's what she wanted, nothing was going to stop her. / I had my doubt as well, but, it's all worked out. She's much happier now than she used to be. / nice to see / valued that way / hard / making / two / yeah / demanding jobs / n't leave much time for anything else. / can be a deal-breaker, Rob. / Sometimes I think my parents / a lot easier / much clearer division of responsibility. / Things have changed a lot since then. / Oh, I, I'm not saying we should go back to the Dark Ages, but, uh, well, it does bother me. / What? / Uh, the people finding it so hard committing / family / especially with your job. You can't have everything. / Helen's done pretty well / Oh yes. / lot of supports from mom and dad. Not everyone gets that. But, all the same, she runs the shop, makes / and cheeses / she's still a damn good mom to Henry. / Yes. Yeah. that's what's so impressive about her.
