TAKE A LOOK

George is looking under the bonnet of his car. Lynne asks him what the problem is and George replies that he doesn't have a clue. He asks her to take a look and then thinks to himself that he'll take a good look too.

There is something wrong with George's car. Although this car has the same front as George's normal car, it seems as though this car has no paint job. George picked up this rustbucket for cheap and now intends to do it up as a little project. What George is most confused about is how something which doesn't even have a battery in it can still have its lights on.

This is not the first time that George has used this method to take a look at Lynne's rear. It is strange that Lynne has fallen for it again. She must really want to improve her car maintenance skills. She must have some knowledge for George to ask her to have a look. Yes, he only wants to ogle her behind, but this ruse doesn't work unless Lynne has at least a passing interest in engines.

The doing up of the car is just a pet project for George, and also Lynne. He really only bought the car for the number plate. 7 BPF is a desirable number plate. George likes to think the P stands for 'property'.

REMEMBER

George and Lynne arrive at a restaurant. The waiter asks them if they would like their usual table and George is impressed that he remembered. He then offers them two dishes and George is again impressed that the waiter remembered. George and Lynne are then doing the dishes because George did not remember to bring his wallet.

George and Lynne have been to this restaurant before. As they have come back it would be safe to say that they enjoyed their time here. It seems that either the steak and the scampi are specialities of the restaurant or that they were just very good as it seems quite a big deal to get dressed up just for steak and scampi. Perhaps steak and scampi are the height of sophistication for George and Lynne. They just aren't as high-brow as we had them down to me. However this could be one of those restaurants that take a classic dish like steak or scampi and puts their own spin on it.

As George and Lynne cannot afford to pay, in classic cartoon style they are doing the dishes. A dishwasher in 1983 would probably be paid about £3 an hour. If this really is a classy a restaurant as we think it is, then their meal could have cost upwards of £50 between them. In order for George and Lynne to pay off their bill, they will have to wash dishes for the next eight hours. It would have been simpler for George to drive home and get his wallet while Lynne waits at the restaurant as some sort of collateral. If he doesn't return with two hours, they are allowed to shoot her.

GREAT TENNIS

George and Lynne are playing tennis. Lynne says that people say she should have played at Wimbledon. George asks if that is because of her great tennis. Lynne says it isn't but because of her great legs. George hugs her and says game, set and match.

Lynne is clearly beating George in this tennis match. She volleys past him twice with little effort. It is this form which causes Lynne to tell George about her tennis past. It seems George and Lynne have not played tennis together before because George would surely know how good Lynne is and perhaps heard her Wimbledon story before.

Lynne has misunderstood why people play at Wimbledon. It is in fact a tennis tournament and you have to be quite good at tennis, which Lynne clearly is, to play there. She however thinks that you can earn a wild card for having good legs. If this was the case, there would be an awful lot of love matches at Wimbledon each year.

By the end, George is just happy to get off this court. They are nowhere near finished but George realises he is being trounced. By saying 'game, set and match' he is implying that the game is over. He has had enough and this is the last time he will visit PDNP Tennis Centre.

BEACH VOLLEYBALL

Lynne is playing beach volleyball with an unnamed friend. She says that beach volleyball is George's favourite sport. Her friend asks, in one way or another, why he doesn't play himself. George says that it is his favourite spectator sport.

Despite only a slash of blue sky cut into the white clouds, Lynne and her friend have insisted on not only braving the beach but also disrobing. The holiday hasn't been a complete failure though judging by Lynne's tan lines.

By the amount of seagulls that are circling the area, the beach must be near a landfill. This really must be a difficult game of volleyball. It's cold and it stinks.

It looks as though Lynne's friend has lost that point. She must be furious with Lynne's gamesmanship. If Lynne had stated initially that beach volleyball was George's favourite spectator sport, then she would not have had to ask the question back, which in turn led to George's comment thus distracting her and losing the point. It seems that George and Lynne cruise the beach volleyball courts sharking their opponents and then cleaning up. Like a Margate version of The Color Of Money.

ASTRONOMY CLUB

George and Sammy are in the garden. George tells Sammy that it seems the local astronomy club wants Lynne as their chairperson. Sammy asks why and George replies that they think she has a heavenly body.

Once again, George is neglecting his duties; talking to Sammy rather than tending to that overgrown garden. When Lynne emerges it's as though she is coming out of a forest. From all these times of seeing their garden, we may have to now accept that this is the way they like it.

George's comment leads to two schools of thought. The first is that the astronomy like Lynne's body, heavenly meaning very nice. This is no way to run an astronomy club. All the men will be ogling Lynne and leave her to make all the decisions. If they're not careful, she'll blow their government grant on perfume and pants. The other explanation is that the astronomy club would never misappropriate the the term heavenly body. This means that they think that Lynne is the size of a small planet. The only reason that the astronomy club want Lynne to be their chairperson is so they can laugh at her. That's just cruel.

If they had said that Lynne had 'heavenly bodies' then that would be correct on both counts. This astronomy club is shambles. However if Sammy finds out they have free punch at the AGM, he'll join in a flash.

BIG QUEUE

George and Lynne are at the pub. Lynne comes back from the bar with two drinks and George lambasts her for taking so long. She explains that she had to wait at the bar. George asks her if there was a big queue in front of her. Lynne says that there was a big queue behind her.

Lynne has bought the drinks. She doesn't trust herself to carry two drinks so she has asked for a tray to carry them back. The pint of cider is for George and the tiny sherry is for Lynne. During the walk from the bar to the garden Lynne acquires a nice tan. That's some strong sun.

Lynne's explanation for her delay does not make sense. If there was a big queue behind her, then the only reason she waited so long at the bar was that she was being so socially inept that she couldn't order two drinks. The resulting queue was getting increasingly annoyed. Lynne got her order wrong three times and then insisted on asking for a tray. The bar staff had to go on a long hunt for one but in the end they found one. George's cider is now flat though.

ENOUGH TO SAY

Lynne is out jogging. She thinks to herself that Hanna's new boyfriend hasn't much to say for himself. She thinks that that isn't a problem though as Hanna has enough to say for both of them. Hanna is talking nearby.

Lynne has gone jogging but has forgotten to put her clothes on. Before you suggest she should be arrested for public indecency, she is in fact wearing her underwear but not her running gear. She is wearing her sports bra and underpants but this is not the attire for jogging. Even the people behind her are commenting on how foolish she looks.

Lynne has been thinking about Hanna and her new boyfriend. This is not a coincidence. She has seen them up ahead and this is the reason this thought flashed into her mind. Hanna talks a lot but most of what she says is just gibberish. That's what Lynne hears – in fact Hanna had been commenting on how ridiculous Lynne looks running around in her underwear. She quickly has to cover up this conversation by changing it. Unfortunately the only thing she could think to say was 'Blah bla more bla'. There is no way that Lynne won't think that they weren't talking about her.
