The wedding afters were mighty crack.  There was dancing aplenty and great decorations in Angelo’s.  That venue can be turned to any occasion.

Leah was dying to get stuck into some work and stress in Angelo’s. Maybe Brax needed help moving the salad bowl around the kitchen. She has a thing for Brax by the looks of it. eanwhile, Elijah professed his love for Leah but was rejected like a massive reject.

Brax came up with a great money making scheme to pay Leah back, start doing some cage fighting against the mighty Sully. Heath came up with a master plan, get Sensai Elijah in as trainer. Brax is like one of the TMNT and Elijah is Splinter. This is like when Ric got roped into doing the underground boxing.

April ditched out of her sister’s wedding to go and see Heath. Bianca wasn’t impressed but let her off. Much to April’s chagrin, Heath wasn’t alone in the gaff, Henri was there with a six pack.  Cue April getting all possessive and clingy. What is she at? Surely it’s clear that’s not how Heath rolls, he won’t be tied down to one woman.

Leah is becoming the Bay’s own Karate Kid with her martial arts classes.  Rev Elijah is teaching her some nifty moves and her confidence has returned.  She’ll be dealing out bashings left right and centre in no time.  I predict that she’ll enter the illegal fight club that Ric got messed up in and kick ass.  After that she’ll claim the Ultimate Fighting Champion crown.  The racist hoons who smashed up the Diner will want to watch themselves when Leah gets on their case.

How come nobody bar Geoff has seen any of them since the riot?  You’d think they’d be easily recognised in a small town like SB. Yet again YCPD are doing sterling work in tracking down those involved and bringing them to justice.  Angelo and Charlie are busier breaking up/making up than solving crimes.  Worst police force ever.

Ok, so we have fallen a fair bit behind with the old Home and Away.  Holiers’ll do that for ya.  However, we are slowly but surely catching up.

Today we saw Kirsty in her pelt.  Well, she was wearing underwear.
Miles’ reaction was amazing though.  The scenes when he was imagining her half-dressed were gas.
Sure there are always young ones running around Summer Bay in bikinis.  He must have a terrible time controlling himself.

Kirsty was horrified, oh, about ten episodes back, when Ric kissed her.  I believe "I’m a married woman!" was the phrase roared with piety.  She seems to have forgotten the oul’ marriage vows now.  Oh yes, she has the glad eye for the young Miles and no mistake.

I hate to say it, but are they going to keep Martha in the Bay after a double mastectomy?  It’d be a first if they did.  You barely get away with a birthmark in those parts.

Jack yet again displays his terrible cop skills – abusing his position by picking on Roman.  How he’s holding that job down I have no idea.

It’s about time Rachel got a stalker.  She’s pretty awesome.

“Questionable hairstyle” was what Mathilda’s Uni room mate said when she saw the photo of Ric. Not half.

It’s a tough one to figure out. Ric has to choose between going to WA with Mathilda or spending his days with worms and maggots. Yes, that’s right, Ric has chosen the maggots. I think that I might have gone the other way and given Perth a chance. Maybe he’s afraid that they’ll make him cut his hair in Perth. They plan to try a long distance relationship but I can’t see it lasting. He’ll get a phone call in a few weeks and Mathilda has met somebody else and moved on. Poor Ric will have his worms and maggots to comfort him though. That’s worth more than any hot girlfriend.

Where are all the Summer Bay residents gone? I can only suppose that they’ve all taken off to Beijing to compete in the Olympics.  The competitors and events are probably as follows:

• Saving people from improbable disasters: Alf
• Eating competition: Miles
• Make-up application races: Morag and Nicole
• Fussing: Leah
• High jump: Colleen
• Hair-growing: Ric
• Partner-swapping: Martha

Can you think of any more?

Morag flippin’ BATTERED that cranky Christian.  With a few well-placed words from her blackened lips, she knocked down her opponent’s whole argument. Why did Christine even bother crossing her?

Is there anything Justice Bellingham can’t do?  And was I the only one who cheered when Melody’s ma was deemed "perverse"?  Paddy O’Flaherty aka Miles (good one Alf) must have been hella relieved.

On another note, Jack is full of truisms these days; today he said the SBPD were "stupid enough" to take him back.  You ain’t wrong there, bucko.

The Ric/Matilda/Viv/Noel/whatever you’re having yourself storyline is wearing a bit thin.  Hopefully that’s the last we see of Viv.

Ric managed to get out of fight club with his life intact after Jack used his non cop powers to "arrest" Noel. Fitzy and Jack back in harness? The local crime lords must be quaking in their boots.

All is now well in the world of Ric and Matilda, or is it? There’s just the small matter of Viv and the unborn baby. For a woman who seemed to know exactly what she wanted a few months back, Ric’s manhood, she now seems to have lost the ability to make any decisions.

What of Jack? Is it all falling into place now? Back with Martha, almost back in a blue uniform and engaged, for the third time in little over a year. Himself and Martha are mental. How long will their marriage last this time? Longer than the last one? In summer bay, life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

The first rule of Fight Club is you do not talk about Fight Club. How long do you think it’ll be before Ric is down the diner talking about it? I must say that I think this is one of the stupidest storylines in a while, and that’s saying something. Surely it is going to cost Viv’s husband more money to get Ric fighting than he’ll make from it? What’s the bet that Roman will do an SAS assault on the fight club and batter everybody?

Good lying from Ric. But what was even more impressive was his guilt tripping of Cassie so that she wouldn’t tell Matilda about him sleeping with Viv. By exposing her as a hypocrite, she felt obliged to keep quiet. Clever Ric. Pity he’s not clever enough to get his hair cut.

Sally told Rachel about her imaginary friend from all those years ago, Milco. We’ve featured Milco on the blog before. I wonder if the years have been kind to him? I would imagine that he’s done well and is an imaginary millionaire now. Made his imaginary money investing in imaginary property.

Isn’t little Pippa a very handy plot device? First she was drawing pictures to try and get Sally and Brad back together, now she says that she wants to go and visit him in Tasmania. I expect we’ll hear more about that.
