And for those announcing that thid was the worst week they've ever heard in #thearchers , here's the door

I think it's appropriate to post this again, given the regularity of loud exits this week #thearchers
Yes, he & George kept coming up with outlandish names for the business. I think Emma was railroaded into accepting Ultimate Arboriculture because Will paid for sweatshirts with that name on it. Could have been much worse #thearchers
It was a bit of a sore point with them as Will didn't seem to see it as a loan, more an investment in the business. #thearchers
She does, but I don't think he needs more opportunities to talk to her. He needs somewhere out of the house to go and talk to anyone and everyone. In the UK this is what the village pub is for - you can sit for hours over a single drink #thearchers
That's a very odd #
I intended #thearchers of course 😅
Rent is a contentious one, isn't it? Amber thinks her parents were wrong to ask her for rent - I guess that's another example of how they both feel entitled to things #thearchers
Yes, church is the only village activity that approaches the friendly, we'll talk to anyone, atmosphere of a pub. It would look good on socials and with his probation service.
We recently heard Lillian telling Alan that she did it from habit and wasn't a believer, but habits can help #thearcherdls
Loads, none of them as good for a chat as the pub, sadly #thearchers
Oh Matthew you are awful 😉 #thearchers
You can certainly use the jobcentre without the need to be on benefits - my point was that using a jobcentre isn't mandatory unless you're receiving benefits #thearchers
Oh no, you don't - but what I was saying is that it's not mandatory to go there unless you are receiving benefits #thearchers
Yes - accosting her outside the pub really confirms it. #thearchers
Only if he's claiming benefits, and Ambridge residents don't seem to do that #thearchers
She certainly would - I don't think she could be expected to forgive him, tbh #thearchers
So very true! Unlike us on #thearchers hashtag 😉
Yes. Having said that, there is going to be agricultural work for a fit young man, but just not for him. Not so soon, anyway #thearchers
Yes! Always, it's down to him having absolutely no awareness of how others see things. His way or the highway, that's how he works #thearchers
Yep - always a sad thing when the last pub in a village closes down. We've lost so many village locals in the last ten years 😕 #thearchers
In villages where I've lived, the place where young people go who aren't welcome in the pub is the bus shelter. Our village hasn't even got one of them 😅 #thearchers
I have the weekly bowls club in summer, but not much else. Tbf I guess we're not so much the demographic that goes to the pub #thearchers
Which is why he needs a neutral space to talk casually to people who aren't his friends. I guess the online gaming is all he has #thearchers
That's fair, but presumably you have other opportunities to interact with people?
#thearchers
Yes, a job would be best, but unlikely.
In villages usually the only place is the pub. There may sometimes be a cafe, but you don't expect to chat with others not in your group in cafes #thearchers
Small flaw in this - he's got no mates 😅 #thearchers
