Barbara brings in the meals and Jim asks her if she is ok because she has a red face and Barbara tells him to leave it.

Throughout the meal many conversations a lot of toilet talk and swearing from Jim, Twiggy's new girlfriend and the different modes of transport that Norma has been on.

Everyone finishes their dinner and hands their plates to Barbara and she goes out to get the dessert being tinned fruit. Antony starts with the whipped cream but is interrupted and gives it to Jim who layers it onto his bowl while he contemplates Antony's selfishness. Jim once again question Barbara on her red face and she tells him she is just hot, but when Denise predicts that it might be the menopause, she has a big outburst. The subject of the Baby's room is brought up and it related back to the moped still being in there and after a big argument, Dave agrees to move it and Twiggy plans to get it shifted for them, much to Dave's dismay.

After a cup of tea, Twiggy goes to leave and once again after he leaves Jim starts to slag him off and Nana get's ready to go home but later changes her mind and goes upstairs for another try and takes quite a few papers with her. Jim asks to tell him when she is finished because he wants to phone Dyna-rod.
