Gail gave Leanne an unsigned cheque for £2,000 as divorce
settlement from golden-boy Nick. It's only after Leanne signs
the divorce papers that Gail is going to sign the cheque. However,
when Leanne signs and then goes to see Gail, she refuses to sign
it until Nick's solicitors confirm the deed has indeed been done.
Martin and Sarah-Lou sulk for England when Gail writes the 2 grand
cheque, because it means summer holidays will be another wet week
in a Welsh caravan park instead of Disneyworld. Yes, I'd be upset
too.
Mike and Alma agree to disagree (I love that phrase) and go
out for dinner together to chat. However, within the first few
minutes, Mike manages to upset not just Alma, but most of the
female population of Britan sucked air through their teeth and
went "oooh" when he cracked a bad joke about Alma being
on the game. Anyway, dinner was cut short because of Mike's attitude
over Alma's relationship with Ravi. Alma invites Ravi to Audrey's
house for dinner, which he accepts. She needs to find out what
to cook for him, and Curly manages to thoroughly embarass Alma
among the tinned peas when he asks Nita what food her father would
prefer Alma to cook for him. "Ooh Curly!" Alam retorts.
"You really are such a.... man!". Indeed. I find that
to be the trouble with a lot of them. Anyway, Ravi calls round
for dinner, bearing an OK bouquet that looked like he'd picked
it up outside of a Total Garage. Audrey is just about to leave,
on her way out to a council meeting so Alma and Ravi can have
the evening together but Ravi, polite as ever, insists Audrey
stay to join them and being a complete tact-free zone, Audrey
accepts his invitation and stays. Alma is not best pleased.
Over at the salon, Maxine's friend Melanie who was due to get
married in September, tells her friend the wedding is off. Maxine
tells Ashley there's a free wedding slot in September and with
the vicar's agreement, their wedding is booked into the slot that
Melanie and her ex-fiance have just set free. Maxine tells Audrey
she wants to move out of the salon flat to move in with Ashley.
Poor Jack finds out he needs a triple heart by-pass operation
and Vera is worried sick about him. Vera constantly calls the
Rovers to check up on Jack so he goes out and gets himself a mobile
phone that plays a little tune when it rings, quite strangely,
it's "Wooden Heart" and as I hate mobile phones with
a vengeance, it just goes to prove how idiotic they are. Back
at the B&B, Jack has a funny turn on the stairs and Tyrone
is worried sick, but Jack begs him not to tell Vera.
Mike gives Linda a spare key to his flat but for some reason
isn't best pleased when she turns up there and lets herself in
before he returns from his weekend golf afternoon. When Mike is
called away to London for a meeting all of sudden, Linda finds
herself chatting to Nita in the Rovers. Nita asks about Linda's
new boyfriend and wants to know all about him. Linda tells Nita
she'll take her to his flat and the pair of them are in Mike's
flat, with Nita looking around while Linda pours drinks. Nita
picks up a framed photograph. "What's he doing with a picture
of Mike Baldwin?" she asks and Linda just smiles that evil
smile she does so very well.
Danny calls round to see Sally who's still worried to bits
about devil child Rosie. When he leaves and goes to the Rovers,
it's Sharon that's pleased to see him there. She calls round at
the market the next day, frilly market knickers in hand (don't
buy them Sharon, they drop to bits after 3 washes) and acts all
flirty-like with Danny.
Sally and Kevin's decree nisi has come through then, finally.
Just another six weeks and it'll be absolute. When mine came through,
the ex and I were (and are still) such good mates, I bought him
a bottle of (Decree) Absolut vodka which I thought fitted the
occasion quite well. Damn, I told you something personal. I just
knew this mysterious lark wasn't going to last very long.
And that's just about that for this week.
Glenda :-)
