Episode 76
🎼 Dum ti dum ti dum ti dum...
Peggy: Hello, Jill, in you come, the kettle’s on for tea.
Jill: Oh dear, I think I need something a bit stronger than that.
Peggy: You mean coffee ?
Jill: No, but a large sherry would do it.
Peggy: It’s only 11 o clock in the morning, dear. What on earth’s the matter ?
Jill: Something terrible has happened ! Shula helped herself to some of the cake at Brookfield then she offered some to Jakob and then he ...
Peggy: Oh, I see. I thought he looked a bit tired when he came round to check my pussy yesterday.
Jill: And that’s not the worst of it. Word has got round that I have a marvellous new recipe for lemon drizzle cake and I’ve been bombarded with requests for it - Fallon in the tea room, Pat in the Bridge Farm shop and the WI want to make it their Bake of the Month ! What am I to do ?
Peggy: Well, I see no problem with that. Just give them all your normal recipe, without the secret ingredient of course, and it will all die down in due course.
Jill: Oh thank you, Peggy, I knew I could rely on you for good advice.
Peggy: It’s no problem, dear, us oldies have got to stick together. Now, what’s that in your basket ?
Jill: Oh, just a few scones and muffins I baked last night.
Peggy: Now we can’t have you and Leonard falling back into your old ways. I’ve managed to get some more of Big Boy’s tonic but be more careful this time about where you leave the cake.
Jill: Oh I will, Peggy. It will be under strict lock and key in our bedroom. I’ve got a very good chain and padlock in my dressing table.
Peggy: Really ? Jack and I always preferred handcuffs.
