Joy is written as quite variable, I think. She was shown as somewhat uncaring when the truth came out about Rochelle. However that was Rochelle's truth so I'm sure there are more twists and turns in the offing #thearchers

That's what I think too. If she lost the squeal now, it wouldn't be a natural progression arising from the plot #thearchers

Agree to disagree?
I think it's an essential part of Amber's acquired persona, one she might possibly lose eventually, if she becomes more confident in herself. If she lost it now, it would be too much like the new Robert, rather than a natural process. I do hope she's less irritating for you tho'

True. The character *has* to have that voice, or she wouldn't be authentic. I hope you find her a bit more palatable #thearchers

Mmm. The smell is glorious. Will be cooking them today 😊

Last time I remember was Emma helping Mia with her periods. Will couldn't really help #thearchers

I think it's connected with the surface area. You get the best flavour from melting chocolate, and with a flake, there's more melting in the mouth going on

Free electricity for me today 🌞, and probably tomorrow/Monday too. The graphic shows when electricity is being cheaply generated, eg by wind power, and we've certainly got a lot of wind

Tis the season when the wind blows down my bean frame, telling me I'll have no more beans this year

Yep, vomit city. But I don't understand the distinction tbh - to me, dating someone just means you're going out together. The next step up from it is *going steady* but I don't imagine anyone says that anymore?? #thearchers

03.10.2025 13:11 β€” πŸ‘ 3    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Btw does anyone say *going steady* any more? For when you progress on from dating to exclusivity

03.10.2025 11:01 β€” πŸ‘ 3    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 3    πŸ“Œ 0

Could be. I've heard it used for dating since I started dating in the late sixties, though. These days, we have so many nouns becoming verbs (gifting, ffs!) that perhaps it was a front runner in that trend #thearchers

We call it dating, going out together, going on a date. As usual in English we have a few options #thearchers

That's how I remember it, although perhaps they believed it to be RuairΓ­'s flat. Alice had worked it out, yes, and Ruairi was not returning calls or texts, so they drove to London together. #thearchers

I think Chris is aware too, as he drove Alice to London to help him #thearchers

Nope, I'm just good at knowing where to look things up πŸ˜‰

A lot of people stopped listening then, of course. I was doing my catch-up thread so it's easy for me to look it up.
I'd think Paul is probably not aware of Julianne #thearchers

But we heard Ruairi tell them both - him and Jenny. They were playing Cluedo at the time. It must have been years ago now, during the covid times?? #thearchers

Fortunately we can still buy Garibaldi biscuits πŸ˜‰

They did make a substantial investment in the stables, probably around 50%, but I can't remember who is the majority shareholder now. You'd imagine Shula wanting to keep that for herself #thearchers

It's a horrible thought, isn't it, having to get through all that sickly milk chocolate to get to the biscuit, and then when you do it's just a custard cream πŸ˜‰ #thearchers
