David and Ruth are relieved, and Rob has things on his mind.

Ruth and David are almost as nervous as Pip as they wait for her assignment results. They needn't have been so anxious as it's good news. Pip passed both retakes and her work was of such high standard she received a phone call of congratulations from her tutor. Pip has further promising news. She thinks Spencer has found her a second hand car that's in good condition.
David and Ruth discuss their delight that all their children are so full of enthusiasm at the moment, and both boys are in full preparation mode for Open Farm Sunday. Ruth remarks how strange it will feel once the cows are dried off and the milking stops for a while. She's ready to explain to the crowds on Sunday why they have decided to change to block calving. She is glad they are not in Pat and Tony's position, having to say goodbye to the herd for good.
Rob picks Adam's brain about hiring staff. He offloads his issues onto Adam, who is only too happy to provide some tips about handling Brian. The pair are getting on well and Rob has an idea about Open Farm Sunday at Brookfield.
