After a long rest from our farming friends it is back to the job in hand as we think back Bathsheba had gone ahead of her time and showed what a strong character she is by sacking her bailiff i am convinced a bailiff is not wot you may consider to be a bailiff , but I am not doing all the work for you but something to do with dealing with the money side of the farm, but being the type of woman she is she decides to deal with this side of things herself and so she should!!we hear about what has been happening with Fanny and her travels to see TROY at the army barracks I think this TROY is a character not to be messed about with!!
We are reading this in a warm church hall but we can feel the atmosphere darken especially as Fanny is talked about as "A spot almost lost lost in the snow"
This thing called LOVE should not be seen as a game but it seems that way throwing snowballs to get TROYS ATTENTION but feels alot more sinister when we hear the others teasing TROY about this aspect of his life,
the group talk about their games in the emotion of love and alot depends on whether you come out on the winning side!!
Bathsheba is out and about on her farm and it is noticeable how she calls Oak "YOU but everyone else by their christian name but as the saying you only hurt the ones you love and we all get the feeling that it is Oak on her mind.
A farm ladies job is never done and next she is off to the cornmarket were Bathsheba gets annoyed as everyone notices her bar one man a Mr Bold wood and it is a very brave man who ignores Bathsheba although we are not told at first who is the scoundrel who is ignoring her til quite a way later perhaps very cleverly done to experience the range of emotions she does!!
The next event may seem only minor event ut one that may have major consequences for ever the sending of a valentine and as a joke shock horror! dont think it will be viewed as a joking manner
