Ed is hoping he will get a deal, while Brian just does not get it.

Adam asks Brian to trust him with his little experiment - the herbal leys - as he goes out to drill in the field. It's only 15 hectares and Debbie's on board with the idea. David's interested to see how the soil improves.
David and Adam discuss strawberry picking - the pickers will start to arrive soon. They also discuss cricket -Adam fancies his chances in the Single Wicket this year.

Rex is excited about some possible land for him and his brother Toby to farm on. Despite Eddie's words of caution, Rex feels that he and Toby may be beginners but will work hard and learn fast. Rex also mentions that his grandfather used to own part of the Estate.

Ed offers to see whether the Estate would be willing to transfer his tenancy to the Fairbrothers, Rex will talk to Toby - they could build some housing on one side for their geese.

Eddie and Ed spot a piece in the Echo about May Day. 'Unstoppable' Emma has been flat out with that and the wedding. Ed feels he could have been a better son at times. No use crying over spilt milk, says Eddie. Ed asks Eddie to be his best man. Eddie would be happy to.
