The Archers - 08/09/2009

Vicky asks Brenda to try a home-made honey face pack, explaining that she's thinking of entering The Versatile Bee category at the flower and produce show. Lynda's surprised to see some trellis in the memorial garden. Robert admits that he and Nigel put it up and asks if they've successfully out-guerrilla'ed the guerrilla gardeners. Lynda comes clean. She's then delighted to see what she believes is a Brown Hairstreak butterfly. Vicky's had an offer on the flat. It's low, and Mike thinks she should hang on but Vicky wants to sell it quickly so she can invest in the dairy. Mike's been worrying about the dinner party at the Snells. He's shocked to find his soup is stone cold and manages to whisper his concern to Vicky. She tells him vichyssoise is meant to be served cold so he graciously tells Lynda that the fish soup is delicious! After dinner, Vicky and Lynda go off and chat away happily while Robert and Mike struggle to keep a conversation going. When they're re-joined by the women, Vicky tells them about her honey face pack. In fact, she's got loads of ideas for the flower and produce show, and she feels like she's on a roll.
