    I'll never remember the plot that long.

    I'd forgotten half of that....it seems as dangerous as being in Midsomer Murders. :)

    Interestingly I read that the chap playing Arnott has a strong Scottish accent and in the programme tonight (before I knew that) I picked up that his accent had gone a bit weird in one place.

    Oh really? I hadn't noticed - will have to find an interview with him now!

    Not a spoiler, but...

    The only plot hole I couldn't get my head round was why Tim Ifield had a hairbrush :)

    He also said he based the wearing of the waistcoat on someone he was told about who insisted on wearing one although he worked in a call centre....regarded as a wally by the men and loved by the women.

    I can't move! Had to shift 2T of slate yesterday and my shoulders, back and legs are screaming at me.

    I'm old :(

    Be careful....you don't want a permanent injury to carry into your later years....then you really will feel old. Pace yourself...you only get on spine.

    The little bugger dropped me in it! He couldn't resist and even pulled out some green ones that were hidden at the bottom!!!

    Agreed! I've told the wife that Fran says I should rest today and leave the slate for the side until another day :)

    Bollocks. Took the wife and children out shopping for trainers and some bits for the new bathroom. I've come home and nobody has stolen the rest of the slate off my drive! Decided to have some lunch and a read on here.... just checked out the window. Still not stolen. Made the wife a cup of tea and said I'd go out after that. Still not stolen.

    My last hope now is the big, dark cloud heading over. It's got about 4 minutes and the time it takes me to get changed! Come on cloud, save me!

    Why can you never rely on the rain in his country, even when you want it to come!!!

    Done now. Doesn't look much however the wife can now buy some pretty pots to fill the gaps.

    I did exactly the same last year round our borders - only 1 ton though as I am a lightweight :) I though had to wheel barrow it from the driveway where the lorry dropped it off on a pallet round to the back. I also got no chance to postpone it as the cars wouldn't go on the drive. Killed me. Absolutely killed me, so I feel your pain!
