I agree dave, and we can start with Lillian. I used to like her, as she reminded me of a disreputable Aunt I used to have many years ago. She committed some sin during the blackout for which the rest of her family never fully forgave her. I never knew exactly what it was that she supposed to have done, as every time I brought up the subject as a boy, I got kicked under the dinner table, but there were mutterings of a GI.
Liilian is behaving in an entirely ridiculous way over the death of the Ghastly Paul, who seemed to be a Jeckle and Hyde character. She never really took it seriously but suddenly its taken on the appearances of being worse then the death of Elvis. Matt is being terribly cruel to her though, so that should be punishment enough I suppose.
Another one heading for a slap is Clarrie. She appears to have lost what little of her senses that she ever had over this bloody flower arranging nonsense.
So many faces, but so little time for slaps !
