The Ambridge Socialist

11^th April

How will Ambridge mark the death of Prince Philip?

Given the BBC’s relentless forelock tugging so far we will probably have to accept that there will be a significant difference between how Ambridge actually marks the death of Prince Philip and how the BBC reports it, if it does.

However we can report some potential if preliminary possibilities

Jazzer labelled ‘not bad in the sack’

This week saw Jazzer break up with Jade as she was rude about Jimbo at a birthday celebration. Instead at Jimbo’s urging Jazzer has decided to re-kindle his relationship with Tracy. Perhaps they are the dream team but what will be the implications for the Ambridge cricket team.

Meantime it clearly remains a man’s world in Ambridge…

Kate’s Yurt plans cause split

Kate has announced plans to move her Yurts, part of the whacky Spiritual Home venture to Phoebe’s new site. Phoebe does not agree. Neither does Brian.

Alice and Chris.

Alice has fallen off the waggon thanks to a bottle of Rioja Brian left her (and presumably other imbibements). Chris is full on angst again. Hopefully those that are paying attention will have got the point that drinking should be done responsibly or not at all and help sort it if there are issues.

Meanwhile the problem most of Ambridge has is not drink but the lack of it as the Bull has been closed. We hope the garden is re-opening on 12^th April and The Bull can survive as the centre of Ambridge community life. In short a good story about controlled  drinking in a social setting.
