The Archers Radio 4 from 1983

oven, no thanks, take care of Eddie's guitar. Oh, give it to me in any of the potatoes, I'll take care of it, no, they said to protect it with my life, give it to me here, okay, thank you, here you are. it's a hot one I really shouldn't really it's all good because the temperature ends oh yeah, crimson has I think Eddie has the money oh, you can owe it then I thought Eddie was in a very good voice, didn't you look? Yes, you had it. Have you seen Susan Nora up here? She doesn't think it's our night off?

Pretty girl, right? Yeah, sure you could call her pretty, your spouse. I think I saw her talking to Neil. Do you want it once? No, I don't want her, I was just wondering if he sneaks up here with her. I think he's quite jealous of poor Susan and they always had a bum. I didn't let Susan Harvey touch it with a barge, although that's what makes it so unfair just for you. I think so, how do you get along with the siren of the Oh, yes, yes, sir, night off. Eddie came over and wanted to talk to her, so I let them.

You have to keep saying how good he sings all the time. You don't like her singing? You don't like it very much. I'm going to sing too, don't you know? I'm just taking care of the edge of the guitar while Clary is going to hit why she's going to hit the potato. Neela, don't look so worried. Ah, here comes the Prairie Singer, what are you doing? think about my new song, it grabbed you oh yeah definitely parts of it parts of it grabbed parts of you yeah what parts can you get your guitar back now yeah oh sorry where's Chloe?

She came to look for you, I don't think so. I don't see her. Maybe you were too busy talking to Susan or you got in the way. Are you worth it? I can't help if I'm popular. I don't think you're very popular with Susan. There she told me that she thought your singing was the worst thing she did since her father was single from Frank. I think you're making it up. I won't ask Eddie the younger generation. Different tastes. You'll just have to learn to live with it. Clara said that she thinks he is the best so far.

Where he goes? Give us one of those pieces of bread and cheese. He would like Harry to like better cheese. Oh, he already has a potato. No, she would love it. Here you go, go and look for her. I think it just ended. the top there with mom going all over you for this so I must uh Clary it's about alimony you won't make much for the church funder this lightning oh it's just some bread and cheese well I'll go see if Susan wants a ride getting home it's getting late there doesn't seem much point in staying until tomorrow Shirley, bye, pity for Neil, he'll get over it in good time, I hope he's fine, the bonfires are almost out, wouldn't you better get some weed San Juan? and stick it in your ear or whatever, why would I want to do it right?

I thought if you did that and sat in the cemetery for 12 months you would see your future husband. I can wait to see it the normal way. Thank you. You don't have any romance in your soul yeah let's get this straight and give your mother our earnings about two pounds fifty and then we can go for a little walk yeah if I want to give all the money I have to the church that's what I will do you have to keep a sense of proportion Walter a little saving may come in handy one day some day I may not be here one day I said to the vicar if you give me time to think about it I might not be right here if you were so cheerful with everything I didn't know.

You even listened to the Lord. Well, normally I don't turn off my hearing aid, but on Sundays a little knob got stuck. I don't know if it was the vicar or the voice of God in the first place, so he does a fog, a key word, the sermon. I don't, no, I think that's what I intended and I'll tell you that someone else left them, um, started that vision thing, everyone knows that I. No, but Peggy also got Jack's message earlier, like she always gets them, she gives it to him and up, Greg, a boy, no, not yet, it's not confusing.

Jack Archer, isn't this meeting spiritualist that she has been attending because I don't agree? those beers and he used to go and bring her the ring the benzo that the family most approves of ends up a little Dutch anyway Peggy went on Wednesday night and yesterday I was in a really old state, you know, of course, ma'am. B, tell me in confidence, so what was the message? That's what I can tell you, but she said it loud and clear that it was like an electric shock going through her. Well, could you tell me what the message was.

It could have something to do with me. No, I'm sure it was fine, it could be anything, couldn't it be a bruise? She used to get all kinds of messages and after the survey, Leonie decided that she wanted the cheese boy, then she wanted to mark him and then she wanted another friend, that's Jackie. about them Nelson, you know how nice she is, it's not like I have much color right now, I'm fine, she knows that. I always thought Jackie must have hollow legs, she could really stack them, yeah, long after the third Brandon I offered her. to take her home visiting her with a warm smile in a languid look.

I guess a lot of people thought that last night Marc Summers is more than others that she's a witch, she jumps up and says she'll walk, thank you, didn't you walk with her, no, her. Said you'd like to walk alone, all you had to do was pay the bill and tip that oleaginous Mario or a day's earnings at the store and go home try a little, oh dear, never mind the fortune, Fool, that's me, only the thought of my father's recent good fortune keeps me from drinking myself to death. What do you think about him giving everything to the church, not everything in his brand?

I understand that he has offered a small donation that the idiot has told him to think about at the first sign of intelligence. I have ever noticed to that extent that it is not just a small donation that Nelson gave me to understand that he is giving them something that he considers substantial with 20 pounds, but why are you looking at me like that? I thought he would have told you, I guess. Maybe he wouldn't have wanted everyone to know. Shula, tell me how much that stupid old creature is trying to give away a thousand pounds. You're not talking seriously.

That was the story I heard. Tom Forest told me. I know it's true because, of course, Mom had to do it. I know this because she is a church guardian. Nelson Connors got out of your face, he must have gone pretty crazy. What is that legal? Mark when you decline, our parents go crazy and you take control of their financial affairs. I don't believe for a minute that your father has gone mad, but he must have. There is no other explanation. The vicar preached a sermon on repentance. You know the 99 righteous sheep and the lost righteous sheep.

That proves it and I will twist it for you because the neck if I see it yes look when you miss dad what is he doing? okay since naughty Bale is going to break up a game there is no one for eros is going to be the death of me we were wondering if you would come in for the steak, mushrooms, an egg and some artists and those waffle things we will do instead of me leg as well as I don't know what I'm going to do with this damn baler. It is taking about four times longer to fill than it should.

I thought you had a spare part. I have one. Something else has gone wrong. Oh, something. New machinery, maybe we'll go to the world exhibition and take a look. Oh, but can we afford to buy something? If we save up, we can have a couple of sandwiches, maybe well, I'll see what dad says. We can go to the field. from a milking there's no need for the baby to be crushed, no pets, no, that's your problem, you've got a deaf mother, you've got William and a broken baler, no, but you know, I thought you were trying that horrible thing.

Suzanne knows my nature, Clary. I'm actually a bit of a leader toy, doesn't mean I'm going to run away with her No, well, okay then, anyway, she wouldn't accept me, don't make fun of me. I got very angry when I didn't have the need. I know when. I'm fine, I'm telling you what I'd like for PUD is one of those steamed chocolate puddings, I just like one of those, didn't you hear me knocking on the door, Dad? Oh, Nelson, oh, this is the third time I've seen him. Can we turn it off for a few minutes?

Yeah, okay Nelson, turn it off if you want. I've got the angle to start over now Lord, how do you feel? Oh, not so bad all things considered, I still have that stiff Nick he is. Since you will be sitting in this chair when you are watching TV, you should sit on the couch or move the TV. I like to sit where he is and I don't want to sit on the couch. It's lumpy, it's up to you of course. It's um, you know what you were telling me the other day dad, what is that? How were you going to make a donation to the church button? oh yes, the vicar said to think about it, but I haven't changed my mind, you haven't given him the money yet, I know, he said to wait, he doesn't want to take your money, dad, he won't take it, I'll give it to the church , you can't buy your way to heaven, you know, no, I'm not trying to. buy my way anywhere it's just that I'm not going to be greedy anymore that's what I decided dad mm-hmm I mean hardship Oh what kind of hardship isn't it Jackie is I never thought she was up to something it's not Jackie though Sir, no, she doesn't help with things.

Oh, are you in debt, dad? I've been in debt since 1951, that's not the point, what's the point? I'm just keeping my head above water because of the wine bar, the store. making money, you saw how much stock we have left, there is about £50 worth of products in there, even if you could sell it all, which we can't do, what are you going to do? That's it, what can I do right? I don't know, I should buy more shares. Well, you don't need to yell at me. I'm excited, René. I'm not sorry, Dad. I can't always tell from what you say whether you've heard me correctly or not.

What's stopping you from getting more shares? I can't afford to buy any. Uh-oh, I see you mean you don't have the money to replace the stock you sold. Yes, dad, that's all. Well, what are you going to do? The truth is dad. I need five thousand pounds and I need it quickly, which is why I've come to you. Can you lend me five thousand pounds to buy more shares? Of course I will Danson, yes, why did you ask me before? Yes, we will go look for them. first monday morning if that's what you want
