Neighbours Thread - I vote to keep Mayor Stingray & Rebecchinis - No Spoilers please

[AnneEyhtMeyer]

Can we not keep going in the alternate universe? I want Susan and Phil to be reality. But why wasn't Dee still alive?

Looking forward to next week though - I hope Therese doesn't go back with Gary.

Isn't he still the school counsellor/ Gabezilla's primary carer?

Ah yes. He talked to someone e once last week.

They mentioned it when Pipes went for sex in the city. Oh have you asked Jack? He's Pipers counsellor. So of course she'll tell him where she's run off to

The women don't actually do that much work either. Therese might always be saying she's doing a conference call once in a while, but considering she runs the whole of Lassiters.... You don't her "this is where I have sex with Paul on the green velour sofa" office much anymore. Always think they have more palatial work places now at the least compared to Paul and Gail's shoe box sized office with the one filing cabinet back in the day.

It’s no wonder Paul had a break down in there and is now thriving in the penthouse.

You’re right, maybe the women don’t work much either, they’re just better at looking like they are working as they are in uniform/at their place if work.

Dippi never does any prep for coffee shop. Normally you'd be absolutely exhausted running that sort of business

She has time to go around and be "dragon Dipi". I was thinking the other day Shane's probably The laziest. He does his stupid inventions and then fails to sell them. It must be weeks since that thing with Leo and the urine thing. I haven't seen him do anything since then. How can they afford to stay in that house and feed and clothe everyone and keep Harold's going with Dipi? I know they got money from Mishti's pay out. You'd think he'd insist on paying it back. Or are they just relying on the money Harold's makes?

You’re expecting him to work with a poorly thumb? He can’t even wash the car!

Oh I forgot to mention the odd line Nen said the other day about not being able to do much work without Tyler around... you’d think Lucus might have thought about that in advance?
I know, I was thinking “That’s the garage screwed for the next 10 years at least, then!” But Lucas must have money to burn, he and Vanessa bought 20% of the boat.

Where is Lucas anyway?!

Daylesford apparently-only a couple of hours away. You’d think he’d come back seeing as his business is rapidly going down the tubes! I’m not sure they ever got a new mechanic since Jack-ass talked Steph out of helping Ben. Well, apart from Mark and Tyler who have done the sum total of an afternoon’s work between them since starting. Lucas apparently doesn’t care about any of this

It is odd that they didn’t pop him in baring in mind he directed the hour ep. I guess he really doesn’t want to act much.

Yeah you’d think he’d pop in to see how things are going/see the boat he just spent about $40,000 investing in. Kate Kendall also directs and doesn’t come back much-I will be annoyed if she isn’t back for Gabe’s christening/naming day though, that’d be just stupid. I guess they want to focus more on directing than acting-and Lucas is really more Sonya’s friend than Toadie’s, from memory, so it’s not too hard to believe he wouldn’t pop in for the party. I hope he comes back next time Steph sees Adam, though.

Could have done without a replay of Shelia in the spa after being pleasured by Hamish in the catch up. 😱

Who is kate Kendall?

Lauren

Oh god - she was so annoying. I actually hope they find a typically implausible reason for her not to attend.

smidge001 I think they reserve their quota of implausible reasons for Brad and Ned. Tattoo convention, anyone?!

Yup Brad will be too busy counting his sperm to attend his grandsons christening

It would be amazing for Piper to just say to Paige. “Dad’s not coming. He’s just a shit dad”.

Mark didn't need to think twice about throwing that ring as he knows he has a whole drawerful ready for next time

Did anybody else see that big tail splash in the water after he threw the ring?

Fake Dee isn't stalking Toadie, she's waiting to fish another engagement ring out of Lassiters Lake.

Fake Dee should marry Mark. That'd proper piss off Sonya.

I knew the Paige/Jack thing was going to come out when Mark proposed. It was statistically likely, given how frequently he proposes!

Are Mark & Steph going to get together again now? I don't understand why Jack, the ex-priest who left the church because he knocked up a vulnerable woman, is considered to be a more reliable step-father for Charlie than the policeman, as was. Perhaps Max has a weird thing about blokes who've left their jobs in disgrace - Mark should get more approval now!

I wondered if he'd get bsck with elly
