Nice new thread for when the old one wears out.

Yes it was stupid, and I think it was his first (or one of the first) shift too, how was he supposed to know how to make all the food etc?

But it was Christmas Day when it started back up so I’m not sure if we have lost days yet and are back on track or not.

It was so stupid. And Krista was being stupid just standing there talking about flour.

Isla and Abi were great as always.

After today with Krista and Seb, I wondered whether Krista would do the drug equivalent of falling off the wagon (not sure what the term is for that), but then I didn't think she would, but that perhaps we are leading up to a storyline where Seb spikes her drink or something like that.

I’m quite enjoying Seb out-manipulating Paul over the party!

You wouldn't know that Krista is supposed to be the co-manager of a hotel!

I really loved the mention of Steph Scully and the Flame Tree today! I thought they had all forgotten the Flame Tree existed. Not sure what Holly's connection to it is though, except of course that she's connected to everything these days.

Steph married Max her uncle maybe is how that feel it’s connected? None of it was when she was anything to do with Max though. I don’t think Summer was even around.

Me too but it was so odd. Holly obviously knew what the message was all about but could they clue the rest of us in please! Also a bit weird that steph didn't get a reply from Holly so called Aaron to give her a nudge.

I noticed that Holly seemed like she wasn't going to reply and Aaron pushed it, but I just thought maybe I'd missed something before when I wasn't paying attention.
Maybe the name drop is a precursor to Steph dropping in for a visit!

A flash appearance of the Flame Tree in todays episode! They are reintroducing it, I wonder if we will see Steph, I really liked her back in the day. A few mentions of Wendy recently as well, she is obviously going to return soon.

Also, if Aaron finds out that Nicolette encouraged Yaz to leave instead of calling the police, I wonder if he will use it in a future custody dispute.

I love Steph and I love Steph and Paul as a duo.

I didn't notice The Flame Tree. When was that?

Does Steph own The Flame Tree?

Can anyone fill me in on The Flame Tree? I remember Steph Scully when the whole family lived in Ramsey St but don't know what happened to her as I stopped watching when it moved channels.

My memory was that the Flame Tree restaurant was 4 tables bordered by a hedge!

And then it became an equally low budget looking retreat.

Yeah I felt like it was a bit of health retreat meets motel lol

Gary made pizza’s there with a cauliflower base.

Why does cousin Hillary no longer speak in Neigh

She used to be so opinionated

Oh she just did

I never quite believed in The Flame Tree. I'd love to see Steph again though.

Yes I wonder if Steph is coming back !

So someone is secretly hiding in the Vaga-Murphy's house. Do we think it could be Chelsea?

Has anyone else noticed that in recent episodes, Terese has been wearing flat shoes or trainers rather than her usual ultra high stilettos, unless she is at a dressy event like Leo and Krista's engagement party? I'm invested as I have a bad back and have had to give up my gorgeous high heels for ballet pumps or trainers in recent decades, to alleviate the pain (not that it's worked, particularly), so I wondered if Rebekah Elmaloglou is also having problems with her back.

I feel her! I walked 2.5 miles in heels two days ago and my feet are still killing me! 😂

I’m a few episodes behind but hurrah for finally getting rid of Yaz, the most boring storyline yet and I’m 100% here for the potential Max and Holly getting together.
