  5. Well you see Wire, Norm and Mitch work for Telecom and were installing a new pay phone on top of the hill. When Norm was packing up, he obviously forgot to grab Mitch's drill and left it. They went to another job and found that the drill was not there. Norm remembered where he had left it and told Mitch who went back to the work site and picked it up. Mitch is now ringing Norm back to ease his mind and let him know that the missing drill has been found. I think there is a parallel with the story of the Prodical Son, that must be why Rev likes it so much.

  8. Also Wire, not many peope know this, me included, so i Googled it for the real story. The location of the first phone box installation used to be fruit farm back in the day. They started as a Strawberry farm, then due to certain economic factors, they moved into Gooseberries...that was where all the money was. After a short stint in Blueberries, the fruit farm went bust and was reposessed by the bank. In a parting shot, the ill-fated owners of the fruit farm decided to name it after the fruit that sent them bust in the hope that no one would ever want to buy a hill called 'Blueberry Hill', thus rendering it valueless to the bank. As it turns out, the banks did sell the hill to a telecommunications company...and the rest, as they say is history!
