Home and Away, fancy a pizza and a beer at Salt? We can set the Bay to rights on the balcony...

So Zig and Dean have left, leaving lonely Mack with just Mali to walk in on in the bathroom. Remi loves Bree and Cash loves Eden, Tane married Flic and Leah hasn't dumped Justin yet. Kirby loves Theo and that's about it.

But who'll love who by page 40....

Speaking of Justin's brother, saw this (warning does contain the video), seems like life imitating fiction (only it was Brodie with the drug problems but it real life in seems it was Mason).

Bloody hell, that's shocking 😦

I remember hearing about the drug problem for the Mason actor - so awful!
I never liked Brodie, so his drug storyline didn't affect me at all. He treated Zig like s**t. Good riddance.

This is all going to come crashing down for Theo, and there will be a ripple effect for Justin and Leah, who have been through quite enough. He is such a fool!

I almost want to stop watching, with this baby storyline. It is so ridiculous (I know, I'm repeating myself....) - suspension of disbelief can only go so far.
At least Rose, an to an extent, Roo, are considering that there is a troubled mother out there somewhere...... [Tane is of course, passing judgement]

Tane - and Felicity - have absolutely no right to be planning to tale her on (and give her a name ffs!) I am so cross with this!

I never liked Brodie. I liked Mason so am surprised to hear about the troubles the actor is having.
Yeah the baby storyline is so daft, and I really don't like Tane anymore after how he's treated Felicity, not impressed by his judgemental attitude either

And so Cash pointed out to Felicity that you don't get to "become a foster carer" (overnight) just for one specific baby, and to make your pretty much ex-husband Happy. Jesus H Christ!

Ooh, Cash as The Bodyguard. I hope no harm comes to him.

Can they just end this Mac and Levi storyline it's making me fast forward and Mac is now completely unlikeable.

Agreed. Neither of them are likeable in this scenario.
Mac trying to twist it and rationalise is absolutely beyond the pale.
He needs to get himself back to the City (and not come to the Bay on the most flimsy of excuses - what a total drip he is!), he will be ruining everything with Eden, which is heartbreaking for her as well, especially as this Cash storyline has warning bells written all over it for their relationship (despite her adorable fangirling.....)

Agree. Used to like Mac but not anymore

I love that Mac has had heart surgery yet has no scar..... and can wear low cut tops.

Do the scriptwriters ever think of these things........... sigh.

Especially as it was only about a month ago. It would still be looking quite fresh.

Things I noticed about today’s lunchtime episode.

Leah’s special biscuit plate. Made the biscuits look tasty!

And I was a bit shocked at the journalist putting his phone on record immediately and launching into questions. I suppose that’s the new way now but it looked really aggressive.

Roo, Tane... they just need Tom & Pippa back in the Bay!

Wasn't Roo a foster parent at one point? Irene and John definitely were (Irene had Hayley/her brothers and Belle) and John had Jet.

There are few adults in Summer Bay who have been there more than a year or two who haven't fostered at some point, although usually they've had recalcitrant teens rather than babies.

The trailer seems to show the story takes dark turn for tane.

Why hasn’t anyone said to him if they did the baby’s mother then he may have to return her!

His moods are annoying me.

Tane is annoying me too, gone right off him.
Is it just me or does anyone else have no interest in the Stevie actress storyline?

I think it’s just a way for Cash to be suited and morose in serious body guard mode.

Urgh, I just saw a trailer on my Facebook feed not going to say anymore but I think I'm going to stop watching again.

On current storylines, I'm getting so bored with Tane and the baby storyline. Theo and Valerie just seem odd.

Mac and Levi do my head in. Fancy using your sister as an excuse but not actually telling her.

@xSideshowAuntSallyx Ooh, I'm intrigued - can't you hint?
I missed about three days, and didn't even bother with catching up. It seems a bit repetitive, I feel.
I am equally bored by and angry with the affair storyline, and do not like Levi, and feel awful for Eden - so selfish of him and Mac (and I do know a spoiler about them....).

I can't stand Levi and have completely gone off Mac. Not so keen on Tane anymore either

It's probably the same one I saw.

I hope Justin has good life insurance, every other one of Leah's husbands have died eventually. I also feel sorry for John, I thought his idea of being their Celebrant was a lovely thoughtful one. They came across as ungrateful.

Oh Lord - is Leah going to regret giving Justin free rein.....? More to the point, is Justin going to regret being given free rein. Although I fully approve of his first decision!

The spoiler I saw was a summary of who might be wearing an engagement ring - from a selection of present/future couples.

Why do I feel like Nike boxers wouldn't be Remys fashion taste? 🤔 😂

i didn’t notice that. Was aghast at Stevie posting pics. Surely someone would know lyric and where they’re based.

Tane tane tane 🤦🏽‍♀️ what are you doing!

I just hate it all.
I know I'm old-fashioned (and old), but how long had she known Remy?
It's all just predictable and somewhat boring. And tacky.
I think Bree should go with Doctors without Borders; she is such a competent doctor but goes to pieces in her love-life...
