Discontent seethes in the village. Ben has what many a therapist would describe as a ‘frozen need’. This means that whatever Ben gets, it’s never enough. You will know someone’s with a frozen need - these types are all over the place. Last year,Ben got a set of wheels off Grandma Jill and her paramour for his birthday. Will this year’s offering live up to his expectations? Make a wild guess.
Eddie has his own gripes, and vows to take revenge over Lynda’s decision about the Miracle Plays, while Jazzer gets a bit of a talking-to from another Ambridger about his bragging, and Susan finds herself caught between a rock and a hard place.
All these niggles and gripes, though, are nothing compared to Alice’s struggles.
