Liam is staying with Bianca in Irene’s house to recover from his jam stains. Where did Liam live before this, in a caravan? How much room is there in Irene’s house? Loads by the looks of it.
Bianca and April are having sisterly tiffs over their respective love lives. Usually it’s April who has more sense but Bianca looks smarter this time, moving on from Heath to Liam. April is displaying a lot of interest in Heath, an unhealthy amount. She must be very hot, she came home at night after a day out still wearing her bikini. Xavier set her up by tricking her into going to the pizzaria where Dex was waiting. April believed him that he didn’t do Dallas but still broke up with him over his boorish bragging.
Xavier seemed happy to see Mink and vice versa. She’s not back five minutes and is already causing trouble. She scabbed a free lunch from Indi and borrowed money from Romeo. Indi is wise to her scams but Romeo is too trusting. She wants to borrow money as she’s in a bit of strife but where is Romeo going to get two thousand dollars? He’s making a fortune teaching the schoolies to surf but that won’t go on forever. Indi wants him to think of the future but he can’t see past tomorrow, poor boy.

Was what Dex was saying, well almost. It was more the reaction he got in the diner that he liked rather than the actual kiss itself. Needless to say, April didn’t like it. It’ll take some time for things to get back to normal with them, if ever.
Harvey is blackmailing John Palmer over receiving gifts as a councillor. He said he’d drop it if Roo got back with him. What is it with ex boyfriends trying to blackmail their ex girlfriends recently between him and Stu?
Indi started her internship which involved buying coffee for Dennis and posing in her bikini. She’s clearly headed for the top of the business world. Romeo was none too pleased when he found out and tried to lay down the law, expecting her to be the obedient wife but she was having none of it. Not really turning out to be wedded bliss for the newlyweds.
Mink is back, great news. She was a right royal pain in the hole the first time round, doubt anything’s changed there.
Ruby was having yet another bad hair day. What the hell Roobs?

What happened to Sasha and Stew? She was professing her love for him to Indy and saying how well things are going. She did have the sense to tell him that she’s not ready to “take it to the next level”, which was sensible. That sense deserted her when it came to dressing up for her date with Stew, she looked somewhat ridiculous, which goes to prove that she is a Walker, taking after Indy. So she went out for a ride in Stew’s awesome green machine and he gave her abuse for not texting him back. But the verbals weren’t enough and he slapped her in the face! I hope she sees sense and kicks him to the kerb. No doubt she’ll forgive him, tell herself he’s changed, until he does it again.
Were there any other violent relationships recently? I was casting my mind back to see if I could remember them. Did Kane hit Kirsty at some stage? Maybe I’m slandering him incorrectly. I’ve a feeling we’ve had this storyline before, “what’s new with that” I hear you say.
April is a right little addict these days. Robbing prescription papers from Sid, where will it end? Did she get the wrong tablets for Irene? That didn’t seem clear. Irene seemed very pepped up once she took what April gave her. Irene’s going to end up addicted to pro plus and caffeine tablets.

Could Romeo’s business be back on track? Harvey is trying to make amends for his earlier mistakes and pay Romeo back for saving his life. Alf can see that it makes sense as a business idea, but Romeo seems more circumspect. I reckon Harvey’s near death experience has made him turn over a new leaf. If Roo agrees to a date then we’ll know for sure that he’s on the straight and narrow as she always seems to have good judgment.
Sid gave Sasha the mother of all bollockings. She was, as he said irresponsible, but it seemed she felt bad enough about it already so maybe Sid could have timed things better. Dex and Indi were really helpful and friendly when little Felix was brought home from the hospital. It’s about time Sasha got the chip off her shoulder and started to appreciate the effort all of the Walkers are making for her and Felix. Sasha lost it with Sid when he couldn’t convince Felix’s dad to part with his son after a five-minute chat which was a bit unfair on poor Sid.
The diner is all changed now. Roo & Marilyn are running it while Leah and Irene are off work. Roo put her neck on the line for Sasha in the diner. I hope that she doesn’t live to regret it. Roo has a habit of adopting a younger protegé, see Nicole and Indi in the past. Is there anything that Roo can’t do?

It seems the Bay, just like real life Dublin, is suffering from extreme weather conditions. That’s some coincidence considering that while the downpour was happening yesterday, I thought what we need now is Alf and the emergency rescue team in the orange suits.
Gawd save Ireland, Irene is having it tough. The cancer needs to be operated on but she’s told Leah and she’s ready to tell everybody about her cancer. That will be a weight off April’s young shoulders who was carrying the burden on her own.
Indi gets a lot of slagging on this blog for her insane outfits but her vest with the cat on it today was lovely on her. Fairplay, for once.

Hammer will be annoyed that he missed all of the fun and games in the surf club. He was stuck on a back road getting his car searched by Constable Watson while it was all going down. Heath, Brax and all the rest of the boys took on some very old looking members of Jake’s crew. They should have had mercy on them, they must be some losers if they’re still hanging around the surf club, playing at gang stuff at their age.
Sasha turned up at the hospital after Sid cancelled on her. She has something of Indi about her with her constant pouting and sarcastic jibes. Sid took her in giving us another troublesome teen to throw into the mix, just what the Bay needs. They’ll need to add some more young characters for her to hang around with, is she too old for VJ to have a crush on?

Indi managed to get over herself and talk to her ma, for Dexter’s sake. Very progressive of her. What kind of an accent does Jodi have anyway? Roo is having problems accepting second best in Sid’s priority list and kicked him to the curb. Roo doesn’t have much luck in love by all accounts.
Alf is a big cricket legend apparently. No doubt he was the inspiration for Shane Warne and the Aussie team.
I felt a bit sorry seeing Liam ask Romeo for a job. He must be desperate. It’s not that long since Romeo was working for Liam, fixing up his gaff. How the tables have turned. He is being very helpful and sympathetic to Bianca, she let him stay over. In fairness, why are herself and April still living with Irene? It’s about as logical as Charlie and Ruby still living with Leah.

“That boy is heading for a fall” is what I thought looking at today’s episode. Little did I realise that it would arrive before the end of the show.
He’s in the midst of a period of strife. April & Dexter’s betrayal has hit him hard and he’s in a bad place mentally. Sure he didn’t even feel like earning an honest living delivering pizza, hooning off with Summer was a preferable way to occupy his time. Not happy with mitching off work, he stole a work vehicle and took a passenger. Their joyride didn’t last and they ended up in a heap at the side of the road. I don’t fancy Summer’s chances given that she’s such a minor character, they’re easily expendable. If Gina doesn’t kill Xavier when she finds out, Brax will.
What’s up with Indi? She threw a strop over Roo & Sid despite the fact herself and her bloke are living with Roo. Talk about biting the hand that feeds. There has to be more to it than that. Could it be that married bliss isn’t all she had hoped it would be? If they do break up, it will be setting a new record for short lived relationships. The summer bay time-warp strikes again.

Would you like to do the hula hula and go surfing, while listening to the ukulele? If yes then Hawaii is the place for you and for the cast of Summer Bay. Budgets must be boosted if they can afford location shooting like this.
Marty, the American guy, said he found Roo by asking the hotel manager who she was. I imagine he told him to look for the woman in the mad dress.
Who knew Indi is a business student at Uni? That seemed to pass me by. Maybe she’ll be the new Apprentice for Lord Sugar. Romeo doesn’t seem to have much of a business head on him so she could help him with the charter business, that’s if Marty doesn’t poach her for his business/bed.
But Romeo’s not as dum as he looks. In order to protect his future with young Indigo, he decided to lock in the value of his current investment. Not only did he propose to her, he went on to suggest a wedding in Hawaii. Even by Summer Bay standards, that’s breakneck speed. Sid is going to be drinking for years to get over this one.

I’ll miss Nicole and Angelo. Don’t think I can say the same for baby George as I haven’t had as much time to get to know him. They had some good storylines in fairness. What about the time Nicole trying it on with holy Geoff? Who can forget the time that Angelo shot his colleague Jack? How we laughed.
The bay will be a duller place without them. At least we have Marilyn to keep us amused. Child kidnapping isn’t a bad way to keep the town talking. Luckily for her, Nic isn’t pressing charges so she got away with that one.
Is Roo some kind of world class problem solver? She’s a one woman A-team. She defused the kidnapping situation and made sure George got back to Nicole in one piece. I wonder if part of her wouldn’t have minded to see Marilyn locked up, leaving a clear path to Sid. Given her mental state and all of the flirtatious texting going on, I think the doctor would be on for that scenario too.
