Buck Stane Standing Stone (Menhir) in Midlothian, Scotland

Buck Stane which used to stand at the nose of Braid Hill

Yes. It's a bit maddening they just 'lost' it.
I am glad the eponymous 'longstone' is still in situ even if recumbent not standing.

So much more than just a bus destination: the thread about Clovenstone and the Wester Hailes housing scheme I’ve previously jested that Clovenstone is a placename that only exists on bus timetables. This is of course silly, it’s one of the neighbourhoods of the Wester Hailes housing scheme. B…

@gjmichaelson.bsky.social do you remember a while ago there was a thread with a map of Redhall quarry and a standing stone? You asked if it was still there.
I went to look, no joy.
The answer lies here- it was the Cloven Stone

It might. You get athletes foot cream that has the same active ingredient but at higher concentration

Akhram's daughter?

If they have to sell land to pay tax, then having a share out of the sale proceeds would cause issues.
However, there is still cake having & eating happening as Josh does unpaid labour for Brookfield and now will mot have a stake in it

What about Johnny?

In this case Josh gets his bit, Ben gets his, (unclear when now or on death) and Pip get everything else, including the bill from HMRC - which will be paid either from the business or by selling part of the farm. However, Pip by virtue of the partnership will already own part of the farm.

The tax comes out of the entire estate and the inheritors get what is left. So Josh & Ben's inheritance also counts to the total.
In an estate with liquid assets - easy, deduct the tax split the rest, any fixed amounts are paid in full so it is the 'residual' that gets hit.

Why do Stella and her bruvver Zack have totally different accents?

But Emma might appear and bite him on his what was the phrase 'daft backside'

And yet there's Alice, who everyone seems to believe in a genius at everything but actually has very little farm experience and seems largely 'office' based.

He might be able to plea to GBH. He's 'from a good background' with no previous convictions. Might he get it down to a couple of years, out in one?

Brian otoh has priors.

He took a weapon, followed him, watched him talk to Alice, followed him again, sneaked up on him and hit him from behind (so in no way a brawl) and then wanted to leave him to possibly die.

Has shown no remorse.

It's worth at least the same time that George served.

Ruari was so nasty and self righteous to George at the 'apology'. He clearly still believes he is better than George despite evidence to the contrary.

Agree. Brian is just George with a posh accent. He is manipulative, violent, vengeful, doesn't like accountability.

And tonight? ....5 minutes of Pip and Rosee making a school project and 7 minutes of Bert Fry's poetry by the stained glass in the re-wilding.

Nothing on door knocking or bottling

She didn't say Will, she said Well? What do you want? As if someone had been banging orhad phoned ahead and was unwelcome.

If that was George who said can I come in then the actor slipped out of character. Wrong timbre /accent

Well? What do you want?

Lillian surely doesn't always answer her door like that though?
I don't think it was George but it was someone she was not expecting.

I think it was maybe Chris

Correct. Jazzer goes to his door (but he was expecting someone).
George, who had recently seen Fallon go to her cottage, hammers on a door.
Lillian answers another door and someone (chris?) Says can I come in. Maybe Lils is his hot dating app date.

Map time. Who else is George near?

As it should

2) Pip has to run Brookfield farm solo. Roseee shows no interest in farming. Pip is aided by a rotating cast of Ed, Rex, Johnny, Poppy, & is finally forced to employ George.
Runs off with Natasha in the end.

3) Josh via his business empire morphs into Matt Crawford crossed with Tom the sausage man

@onambridge.bsky.social far future plot predictions
1) Chelsea's horsebox hairbox succeeds in a way that defies normal business models to supply a mobile gossip venue & many polticle opportunities for mishap and breakdown. She eventually takes over running Grey Gables.

Oh Brookfield has some kind of rotating pastures though where they are always measuring the grass. That's what I was confusing it with.
