Family comes first for Ruth and Elizabeth is filled with trepidation.

Ruth wants to sort Pip's birthday present and is determined that for once David should give priority to his own family. She insists he looks for some suitable cars on the net. David finds some, and Kenton agrees to check them out.

Elizabeth wishes tomorrow's meeting with the trustees wasn't happening but assures Lily that it's nothing to worry about. David is walking the bull, General Custard, and Elizabeth panics when Freddie goes over to pat him. Freddie explains that he's a very friendly bull and sometimes Daddy used to let him ride on Custard's back. 

Ruth's concerned that David won't be around for lambing. Pip assures her that she and Josh will be there but agrees it might be worth sounding out Eddie for some night shifts. Pip's hopeful that David's meeting with Graham Ryder will be the last big job he has to do, and after Elizabeth's meeting tomorrow he'll know exactly what's going on. So once lambing's over, they'll probably be back to normal. It can't come too soon for Ruth. She's not sure how much longer she can go on working like this.
