I thought it was having a fortnight off for Christmas but not on today Sad

I've been wondering about the age of baby Nell. In Australia I think they miss some time over Christmas, so maybe Nell is a month old now? She certainly doesn't look like a newborn. But then why does Sonya still need so much rest?

And I didn't like the way Vanessa was so totally unconcerned about all the tests her baby was having. Even if they had been totally routine, as a new mum you're still paranoid. But glad she's ditched Rhys and hope she gets with Lucas soon.

scrappy - I was shouting at the telly to just pick Nell up as well! But not as much material for the writers if she falls asleep on Toadie as he sits and watches telly.

I normally suspend disbelief (the previously mentioned super Drs and lawyers and the one roomed hospital) but for some reason the baby stuff is irritating me... although both babies are very cute and hopefully it will mean Vanessa and Lucas end up together.

I missed it Friday Shock, so she ditched Rhys?

I also thought if Sonya was so into natural parenting she would have Nell with her at all times, not stick in ear plugs and let the other two get on with it.

Willaby you mean to say that you had more important things to do than watch Neighbours Shock Grin Yep Vanessa told Rhys where to go. Hopefully Lucas will enter stage left and all will be well.

There are continuity errors left, right, and centre in Neighbours - no surprise the writers have forgotten that Sonya is the original Earth Mother!

Yes, Sonya would have had a sling, which Toadie could have walked Nell in or she would have taken Nell to bed, fed her and they both would have slept together. No way would she be left to scream.

Thought Kate looked rather like Beth Tweddle tonight. Is she going to end up with Rhys?

I've thought these two would end up together since the start. Remember their torrid one-night stand?

About patrick's web fundraiser. If I was Lucas and Vanessa and i didn't know that the page had been set up, or who did it after asking people, i would assume someone was running a scam to defraud people using my baby as a cover. I would also wonder how on earth they got a picture of my baby.

I don't want to say stuff about the bf story line as not to spoil it for people.

Marking my place . . . going on maternity in 8 weeks (well alright!) and cannot wait to be watching neighbours every single day. Oh yes!

I had a sneak peak on the website to see what has been happening since I returned to work and have been catching up on an episode here and there.

Re baby Patrick's fundraiser - I know there isn't a NHS like ours in Oz,but does it mean without fundraising,he will not be operated on? surely not?

Well as Vanessa has given up work to be with patrick, i am sure her and lucas need money that would have come from her wage for bills.

I'm finding it all very irritating at the moment!

Why isn't Sonya breastfeeding/using reusable nappies/baby wearing? And I'm sure that when she first arrived she was a vegan, but she doesn't seem to be anymore? Confused

Why was Vanessa working until she went into labour? And now stressing about money, has she never heard of maternity leave?

Why is Karl Patrick's doctor? Wtf - he's a neonatologist/ paediatric cardiologist now?! Are there really only 2 doctors and 2 nurses in that huge (from the outside anyway - it's like the exact opposite of the Tardis Grin) hospital?

I knew Brennan wouldn't really be dead, a bit like Connor really Grin

Oh yes - what's all this about a new neighbours theme tune???? Love the failed pop stars (cough-stefan dennis-cough) being part of the challenge.

Does anyone else remember Rosanne Barr 'singing' the American national anthem that time?

Like that Smile
