Brian despairs, and Roy has a suggestion for Jolene.

Roy tells Elizabeth to go ahead and book bands for Loxfest. The licence is in hand. Elizabeth is daunted by the scale of their project. Roy has decided who to contract as the events manager and Elizabeth supports him. They agree to have a stage for local bands as well.

Jill raves about Fallon's efforts on May Day, getting the hall together and creating the atmosphere. Fallon's upcycled goods stall certainly did good business. Jill is hosting Clarrie's 60th birthday party, lending a Brookfield barn. Nic and Emma are in charge of catering.

Brian's disgruntled as building work starts on the new kitchen, with lots of racket. The lovely floor has to be dug up as well. Brian feels his sciatica is getting better. But Jennifer is horrified that he secretly planned to do tractor work at night for Adam.

Dan is finding his first week at Sandhurst tough but he's coping fine. Jill is more worried about Shula, who seems to think Dan is having a terrible time.

Roy invites Elizabeth to a local music festival, Greenbury Fields, to give her an idea of what it's all about. Jill thinks it's a good idea. Roy invites Jolene to do a set at Loxfest. She'll check if the rest of the Midnight Walkers are up for it - they'd better get rehearsing asap.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
