Categorie:

Susan and Clarrie are looking forward to Adam’s first day in the dairy but they are surprised to find that he’s unusually officious, quizzing them about their work and routines. Susan is annoyed by this and decides to play some tricks on him. While they are making yoghurt Clarrie tells Susan she will be doing a few extra shifts in The Bull to help Jolene out. Later when Adam comes to check on them he complains his wellies are too tight. They tell him it’s ‘Dairyman’s Foot’, where lactose can make people’s feet swell. They quickly let him in on the joke. His behaviour continues and he makes Susan help him with the Borsetshire Blue, reminding her that she did say all the processes could be streamlined. As they are leaving he winds Susan up, telling her that hair is hanging out of her hair net.Jolene goes to visit Kenton at the hospital. He’s been moved back onto a ward and is starting to get bored and grumpy. He is complaining about the other patients and is feeling frustrated that he’s had to leave Jolene with no help. Later, when Jolene is showing Clarrie how to use the till, Kenton arrives at The Bull having discharged himself against doctors’ wishes. Jolene is shocked and angry with him but he bats away her protestations, saying he’s fine and he’ll manage. His bravado vanishes when trying to climb the stairs leaves him in excruciating pain.
