    Some of the oddities I noticed last week:

    1. Allegedly a school trip came to Rewilding on Friday - the last day
    of the summer term - simply not possible.

    2. Harrison has been on long term special project assignment.
    Allegedly he has a late shift on Sunday night and comes home on a
    Monday. He had a farewell party so why was he working the weekend? he
    would have finished on a Friday and been home over the weekend

    3. Brian has forgotten that Adam and Debbie had double shares so should
    have received twice the amounts paid to Alice/Kate/Rugrat. Plus for tax purposes HMRC needs to see the accounts for winding up the partnership
    to enable the profits to be assessed as income or capital - when will
    HMRC demand their 40% of the -u7k?

    4. David and Pip had heard the dog and I thought one of them caught
    sight of it (possibly not). So they might have known if it was at all
    like Monty.

    5. Earlier in the week Kirsty told off Rex for being patronising and overbearing. The relevant part of the scene concerned was trimmed in
    the Omnibus making his apology and comments meaningless as we had not
    heard her say that.

    6. Helen appears to have suffered a complete brain transplant given the
    way she accepted the greenhouse. Is she going to Scotland?

    7. Susan fell for Anne-Marie's sob story. I thought she was brighter
    than that.

    8. Where is Emma?

    We don't know (do we?) the details of Borsetshire school term dates, but during Breakfast on R3 this morning the presenter said his children
    still had 2 more days before they broke up.

    2.-a Harrison has been on long term special project assignment. Allegedly
    he has a late shift on Sunday night and comes home on a Monday.-a He had
    a farewell party so why was he working the weekend?-a he would have
    finished on a Friday and been home over the weekend


    We don't know who he was shifting with (see Brritski's post).

    3.-a Brian has forgotten that Adam and Debbie had double shares so should have received twice the amounts paid to Alice/Kate/Rugrat.-a Plus for tax purposes HMRC needs to see the accounts for winding up the partnership
    to enable the profits to be assessed as income or capital - when will
    HMRC demand their 40% of the -u7k?


    Or Brian doesn't care.

    4.-a David and Pip had heard the dog and I thought one of them caught
    sight of it (possibly not).-a So they might have known if it was at all
    like Monty.


    Were we ever previously aware that Monty was a doberman? Not something I
    was aware of.

    5.-a Earlier in the week Kirsty told off Rex for being patronising and overbearing.-a The relevant part of the scene concerned was trimmed in
    the Omnibus making his apology and comments meaningless as we had not
    heard her say that.

    6.-a Helen appears to have suffered a complete brain transplant given the way she accepted the greenhouse.-a Is she going to Scotland?


    If only!

    7.-a Susan fell for Anne-Marie's sob story.-a I thought she was brighter than that.


    Not another manipulative mother, shirley! [cf Ma Tichener, Julia
    Pargeter, etc]

    8.-a Where is Emma?
    Bath?

    Yes. Apparently it was mentioned when he was rescued. I had forgotten
    but it was documented at the time.

    Needless to say last night continued the nonsense. If the Cruck Barn is
    to be refurbished to provide an arts centre, well being and much else
    then the potential manager will need consulting on the facilities to be installed - especially things like electrics and lighting and speakers
    and so on. But Lizzie has not seen Fallon to discuss it since some
    imaginary meeting in January but she needs to start work today.

    It feels like another round of maternity leave to me.
