Mysterious silhouette

Ailsa — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:11:21 +0000

Who was the mystery weirdo watching Charlie and Brax having a pash? Wouldn’t it be deadly if it was Alf, and this was a hobby of his?

Anyway would Charlie and Brax ever eff off? She’s a cop and bad at her job. He’s a prior dealie (betcha that’s a word) with ties to his past. I get it, it’s a conflict. Zzzzzzzz

Miles found out about Elijah fancying Leah. He was heartbroken, poor thing. Leah doesn’t know, and has no interest in the Rev. Good woman Leah, he’s turned into a SAP. Miles is going to visit Sally in Thailand, hopefully he meets Cassie and Baby Henk too.

Romeo got yet another job, and immediately asked for an advance. My faith in his business acumen is dwindling by the day.

Sid and Roo are an item again. Turns out she loves paeLLa.

All change

Flathead — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 19:25:24 +0000

Leah and Miles are no more. Both of them are pretty sad about it. Elijah is ALREADY sniffing around Leah, so Marilyn warned him off.

Marilyn also advised Dexter to apologise to April. He did so while wearing the worst suit of all time. Not only that, but April told him to get bent. She’s still annoyed with him, so she’s devised a plan to seduce some randomer at the formal. She confided in Ruby, who, unsurprisingly, thought it was a great idea.

Bianca is trying to keep Liam away from Brax, as the Rock Star still doesn’t know the truth about the accident. She won’t have to worry for too much longer, as Charlie and Brax are conspiring to leave town. Brax can’t stay around and resist The Boys.

Lady in Red

Ailsa — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 20:14:50 +0000

Hahaha did yis see Roo frolicking down the beach in her red tent/dress? What a pity it was Harvey waiting for her on the beach. Why doesn’t he go on a long, long charter and leave everyone in peace?

Mr. JP was struck off the council, and wants to spend his life savings on the development. Gina rightfully made a disapproving face. Harvey reckons he can win John’s old seat.

Charlie and Brax are living it up, going to the beach during the day, etc. How is Charlie paying rent if she’s not working?

Miles found out Leah is back in town. He confronted her about her lies. He should have confronted her about being a moany oul bag while he was at it. Future babies seems to be the crux of the issue, and neither of them are backing down.

Corpulence, conflict and corruption

Flathead — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 19:42:06 +0000

Harvey is continuing to spread rumours about John Palmer and his corrupt ways. Roo got involved and asked him to stop, to no avail. Rumours tend to get believed in small towns like the bay so John’s in strife with the council now, they want him to resign. Harvey needs stopping asap.

Miles is heading for a fall. He seems to think himself and Leah are headed for a reconciliation but Leah has other ideas and lied to him on the phone. To top it all, Colleen told him that he was looking a bit fat. I’m surprised how thin he is considering he stuffs his face in most scenes.

Sash is in hospital with her infection. Stu had a showdown with Sid, who got a taste of his anger. The doc won’t let him anywhere near Sasha now. But he got the impression that Stu convinced her to get the tattoo, which isn’t true and she didn’t set her Dad straight, future conflict alert. Xavier seems happy enough to hang around the hospital, waiting for her condition to improve. Isn’t he a bit old for Sasha, she’s only 15.

New beginnings?

Flathead — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 19:19:59 +0000

I’m surprised to see that nobody bothered cleaning Liam’s face while he was in a coma, it’s still covered in red crap, maybe some old jam? Bianca doesn’t seem to have noticed despite spending all day every day by his bedside.

April reckons her sister’s rediscovered her love for Liam, is it guilt or something more? April was unimpressed when she found out Bianca slept with Heath yet again. Maybe she’ll move in there now Bianca has moved on.

When Heath called over later, Bianca gave him the heave-ho, “don’t come around here no more”, she said. Heath decided to get his own back by getting locked and sleeping rough on the beach. That’ll show her.

Leah told Charlie that VJ had run away, her response, “that isn’t good”. Brilliant. She’s a genius. There’s a manhunt for Veej underway. He phoned Miles to say he can look after himself. Maybe he’ll head to the bush and be the new Crocodile Dundee.

Constable Watson suspects that Charlie is back on the Brax. Who’ll win that battle of wits? Watson is wiley and Charlie is pretty dim, I expect the cop to cop-on to the ex-cop’s cock-up.

It’s baaaack!

Ailsa — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 18:30:54 +0000

I’m so excited, I’m gonna live blog this episode, here goes:

Harvey putting pressure on Alf re: Blaxland.
“Just because I’m your son, doesn’t mean you can control everything I do”. Veej demands RESPECT.

Leah and Miles blue-ing

Ailsa — Mon, 12 Dec 2011 19:38:35 +0000

This breakup is very difficult for Leah, Miles, Veej, and most importantly, me! I don’t know how much more moping, staring into the distance, talking to everyone but each other about it, crying over the answering machine, and general all-round misery I can take.

Romeo basically told Alf to sell Harvey the boat. I hope it blows up the first time he takes it out on the water, the big weird bastard.

We’ve had some comments that Alf had the best quote of all time in today’s episode, but I can’t remember it – what was it?

Update: I forgot about Charlie’s date with the robbery victim, and it being uncovered that Brax was the getaway driver in said robbery. Good police work by Constable Watson.

Harvey’s hoax

Ailsa — Fri, 09 Dec 2011 21:07:47 +0000

Harvey is some boy. He poured petrol on the Blaxland, then “saved the day” when Alf was around, blaming Romeo for the spill. He then offered to buy the boat. Luckily Liam saw Harvey on the boat with the petrol. Grr Harvey is such a weirdo.

Miles and Leah agreed to stay together, were back to normal for about five minutes, then had a row, and Miles moved out. Veej saw it coming. He might be the most sensible person in the Bay.

Indi got an internship with the dude who’s building the new resort. Hope he doesn’t turn out to be a perv.

Sickener!

Ailsa — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 19:29:07 +0000

There was a collective shout of OHHHHH in our house just now, as preteen Lily told prospective da Mark that mammy Gypsy was being bold on the beach with Liam Murphy, all-round rockstar. The only one I feel sorry for is Irene. She’s trying to recover from chemo in the midst of many dramas. At least her illness means she can get Lily to do the dishes.

Charlie was ready to ride Brax, but found his lawyer’s earring in his car. That car sees some action.

Leah is being a wagon to Miles. I hope they do break up. She’s telling him he pushed her into going ahead with the pregnancy. He did in his HOOP, Leah.

Braxton blowout

Flathead — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 19:24:40 +0000

Not a great time to be a Braxton in the bay. Casey is in Juvie, but still able to talk to Brax on the phone. Heath is in trouble with his Neighbours, Gina and John, while the object of his affections Bianca wasn’t too impressed with his threatening of Gina. Brax is the only one who is enjoying himself. He got an earful from Charlie over the court case. You would think he’d be sick of her by now, but no. She only has to “say the word” and he’ll be there. In the meantime he’s going to enjoy himself with the hotshot lawyer who is mixing business with pleasure.

What’s Ruby going to do while Casey is doing hard time? Will she be able to wait for him? A month is a long time to be on one’s own in the bay.

Leah and Miles continue to struggle along. She seems to be doing anything she can to avoid him. She maintains that everything is ok but Miles seems unconvinced. Whither now for them both? Marilyn is doing all she can to help them but will it be enough? I fear not.

Party time

Ailsa — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 19:18:09 +0000

It was parties a-go-go in Summer Bay in that episode. Mr. JP was 50 and having a posh pizza dinner in Angelo’s with every local over 30. Gina was looking lovely. Harvey gatecrashed, Sid scowled, Leah moped, Miles drank and Romeo and Indi (under 30 but there anyway) crept off to consummate their marriage once again.

The under-30s were in the caravan park, where Dexter and April discovered Sasha’s nudie photos. It’s ok, she says everyone is doing it. Casey thought Ruby was with Xave, when in fact she was only trying to catch his eye. Anyway, they are friends again and she is going to wait for him if he has to do a few long months of juvie. I hope she can stick to that promise, she’s never without a man for long.

Text update

Ailsa — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 19:37:07 +0000

I missed today’s episode, but here’s a text I got about it:

“it was awful aul shite. leah really is a pain in the hole. she wants to get her tubes tied. and sasha is seeing a guy doin his HAC& he’s gettin her to take nudie pictures of herself. U know that won’t work out?? very similiar to a neighbours storyline.”

Do you agree?

Braxton boycott?

Flathead — Thu, 24 Nov 2011 19:38:33 +0000

Those Braxton boys are fierce hard to resist. Charlie was making pained faces as she tried to wean herself off Brax, again. She’s staying strong, for now, but I don’t see it lasting. Bianca nearly gave into temptation with Heath but stopped short of taking it to the next level with him. Ruby makes it a hat trick of babes besotted by Braxton with her continuing Casey conundrum. She wants him, he pretends he doesn’t want her. Ruby should give up on Casey and concentrate on other things. I reckon she could rent her hair out to the department of the environment as a wildlife sanctuary.

Leah is still struggling to come to terms with losing the baby. Miles is caught in the crossfire. I can’t see this lasting too much longer. She’ll ditch him and Elijah will mop up afterwards.

Juvie

Ailsa — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 19:48:10 +0000

Casey turned himself in to the cops, and reckons he’s going to jail or juvie. That’s why he’s keeping Ruby at arm’s length. I reckon he’ll be out for the HSC.

Leah is back to work. That can’t end well.

Sasha has a new male friend who apparently is a River Boy. I was confused about that as he had his top on at all times.

Return of the Rockstar

Ailsa — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 18:56:44 +0000

Liam Murphy took to the stage in Angelo’s and Gypsy was LOVING it. A budding romance, no doubt. Lily will be delighted. She thinks her ma is going to marry her flash boyfriend and leave her in the dust. That’s why she’s being such a brat.

Everyone is sad about Leah’s lost baby. Poor cute Veej was going to teach him to play football. Veej had a touch of Henry XVIII about him as he declared the baby was definitely a boy. Leah is pushing Miles away. Leah, noooooooooo!

Irene is doing it tough after her chemo. Her carers are terrible, they’re barely in the house to look after her. Plus they are both crushing on Rockstar Liam Murphy. LOVE TRIANGLE YO

Absolute corruption

Flathead — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 18:53:41 +0000

Gina and the “save the school” crew are on the Dept. of Education. It turns out that they covered up the fact that the school wasn’t properly repaired after an earthquake in 2006. Inspector Xavier was the one who found the details in the school’s files. Now the school is going to rebuilt after all. Final score: citizens of the bay 1, department 0.

Poor Leah is in a bad way. It looks like she might have lost the baby. Veej called Miles, who was preoccupied with the school situation. When Miles didn’t answer he called Elijah who rushed over. He was there to comfort Leah, which is all well and good but wouldn’t he have been better calling Sid or the Ambos? No doubt Leah will now break up with Miles and get back with Elijah, who’s still holding a massive torch for her.

Romeo to the rescue

Flathead — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 18:02:20 +0000

While Romeo was rescuing Harvey in the midst of the storm, only one of them got stage instructions on their script. Harvey spoke in normal tones about his boat sinking while Romeo shouted to be heard over the roar of the wind. I suppose it’s not that important when you have a compound fracture with bones sticking out of your leg. Romeo must be quite precious about his hair, he didn’t bother putting up his hood despite the weather. He did end up as quite the hero in this episode.

Leah got some pregnancy pains. Why do this kind of thing always happen at times of crisis in the Bay? There are echoes of Angel giving birth in a car in the middle of a storm.

Coleen howling around the school was quite entertaining. It sounded like she was auditioning for a part as the hunchback of notre dame. Bianca came a cropper when the roof collapsed. I predict a life threatening condition which will clear up by the end of the week.

Storm warning

Flathead — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 20:08:59 +0000

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.

Irene gets a storyline

Ailsa — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 19:35:39 +0000

In today’s episode, Marilyn talked Jessica the bride out of getting married. She robbed Leah of an order in the process. Jessica seemed fairly simple and downtrodden, so I’m surprised she took action.

It looks like Irene might have breast cancer. No-one has even noticed she’s out of sorts. Bianca broke up with Liam and is moping around. April’s too busy giving Bianca advice. Irene even had a slow-motion, soft-focus scene and still no-one copped on.

Roo called around to check on Sid. In return, he gave her a tongue-lashing over walking out on the Walkers. He’s a cheeky doctor.

Crisis!

Ailsa — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 19:05:26 +0000

Ah, those Summer Bay folk are mad. Sid has a few drinks and falls asleep on the couch, and it’s a SITUATION! They wouldn’t be able to cope round our way.

Sid found out he has a new daughter, borne of an old flame who has since died. It looks like he’ll have to take on Sasha, and her little brother, too.

Indi and Romeo are broke. She wants to move back in with Sid.

Miles has moved in with Leah. They were quick to christen the bedroom.
