Home and Away thread before Summer Bay gets locked down...

[SleepingStandingUp]

No spoilers blah blah blah

Oh dear, why would he let logic and coherence ruin it for him!!

Oh no, Def tell him of he joins the club he has to be quiet. How old is DS?

DS is 17 and is plodding on with his online schooling despite his exams being cancelled. He studies upstairs, I teach online downstairs: we meet at lunchtime to watch H&A. We're a bit behind so have just seen Colby sent down. DS is traumatised because just before the trial, they did that thing where they made Colby slightly less of an evil villain (nice chats with Bella; going for his symbolic last surf with Dean) so we felt bad about him going to prison. DS: "They even made his hair less evil!" 😂

He sounds like a darling. Your son, not Colby. And I feel old refering to a 17 year old as a darling 😂 but I'm def old enough to be his Mom so it's fair enough

Thank you 😊 I am biased but I am very proud of how he's handling things at the moment.

H&A is central to any game we play of "Would you rather..."

"Would you rather spend the night on a boat in the Everglades worrying you're about to get eaten by alligators...or be a cop in Summer Bay?"

Everglades. Survival rate is higher

i am finding Martha beyond annoying.

Me too! Feel like he son is going to be annoying too. Poor Alf, he just wants to quietly get on with his life

He should have got it on with Irebe

I'm hoping Martha's son is evil. Need a juicy plotline to fill the Colby gap please! Also Dean can bring back some reprobate from Mangrove River to entertain us

So can we count up how many half siblings Roo has? It is Ryder's mum, Aiisa's son who went to Hawaii or somewhere and this Kieran bloke. Have I missed any?

Also shocked by super-cop Colby telling Taylor that none of the prisoners knew he was cop. The trial mustn't have featured in the Coastal News.

Any when Roo announced that "we need a family meeting" I had a flashback to Maz and the big pepper grinder!

Yeah o think that's all. Quinn, Duncan and Keiran.

@Focalpoint I've no idea how the other prisoners haven't heard about Colby being the cop on trial... Oh what a funny memory - Maz and "you can only talk if you're holding the big pepper grinder" 😀

Yes, most jails have a wing where the cops tend to live for their safety, isn’t that right? I have a feeling they aren’t protecting hairdo for a plot reason...

marthas son has confused me. so she was away for 30 years. so how come he is so old? (he looks over 30. i say that as a mum of 29 year old)

You're right. The actor is 35 but I'd say he looks older. They surely needed someone about 25?

Also, we’re assuming she gave birth soon after her disappearance 🤔

@SleepingStandingUp

Yeah o think that's all. Quinn, Duncan and Keiran.

Alf has another child as well, remember Ric Dalby from way back when, and somehow it transpired that he was Alf's grandson? I can't remember who Ric's parent was meant to be, no doubt they'd already died or something!

I was going to say there's another one, yes that one but I don't know the story either. I remember Ric I think.

Honestly they need to do Alf a big birthday party with Roo, Quinn, Duncan, Ric's dad if he's alive, Kieran, Martha, Ric, Ryder, Duncan's kid.

Irene and John Palmer on a non date yesterday was a bit weird 😬

Yeah, I know what'll build up your ego, the locals thinking were on a date.

If it wasn't for Max tho.... Irene does deserve some action. Maybe he's like Gary and has a signature move that makes his amazing in bed - the life buoy??

John Palmer The Stud 😱😀

The only plot line you need this week is Heath's return. Yes can't wait!

Oh my god is Heath coming back? I love Heath!

@matilda2013 he sure is but think it's only for a short time. To do with the Parata storyline. Him and Tane are hot, hot, hot but think Heath just pips it.
