The new Mrs Grundy asserts herself and Pat takes a trip down memory lane.

Arriving back from Cape Verde, Will happily carries Mrs Grundy over the threshold. They enjoy a proper cup of tea, thanks to Clarrie who has left fresh milk in their fridge. Nic's glad to be home but asks Will if they can change the name of Casa Nueva. Will suggests renaming it Greenwood Cottage, which Nic likes.

It may be her birthday but Pat's happy to help Tony with the milking, which he's having to do while Tom visits a butcher in Felpersham. Pat thinks Tony looks tired but he assures her he'll be fine for her party later. Pat's finally starting to believe that the re-launch is going to work and they'll pull the business back from the brink.

Pat's party goes very well. Kathy loves all the old photos which Lilian has had blown up, and Helen enjoys the pianist. She suggests they should have live music for the launch party. Tom doesn't think there's room in the shop. Lilian stops them from talking business tonight, and Pat thanks her for such a wonderful party. Lilian insists that after what they've been through this year, if anyone deserves a party it's Pat.
