    Oh dear. I can see Josh ending up in trouble so far down the line because of those illegal supplements. I found it hilarious that Tyler thought that his brother and Nate should get together just because they're gay. :D

    They really need to put a stop to this bizarre menage a trois situation with Josh, Amber and Daniel. It really annoys me the way they're just sitting there, going to appointments as a trio and the people around them aren't even batting an eyelid.

    It's probably quite common now in real life. Its not all 2.4 kids anymore.

    I think you mean Sharon.

    I assume she lives in Frankston (which is where the Cannings are from), which is an hour away. So, it makes sense that she can plausibly pop up when summoned.

    Yeah, I did. I even checked before I typed it :blush:

    Still, an hour is quite a trip just for a short conversation.

    I've often thought about the huge untapped potential for selling supplements and steroids by sitting outside Harolds all day. This next next year Josh will be a millionaire.

    Good to see Amy taking more stock in Mother Theresa's advice than trusting in her own father. Sure there is bad history, but at least he is trying and is actually family. But yeah, much better to confide in, and listen to someone you have known for five minutes.

    Also love how Saint Sonya has been quick to point out Naiomi's past flaws, and to have those sly digs at Paul today. But at no point has she declared full disclosure to Amy and told her about her own troubled past and child abandoning ways.

    Was Sonya's canary yellow, patterned dress the worst thing she's ever worn?

    Oh, shut up Amber, and go back to being passive and impartial with Josh and Daniel. She should know that when Imogen has a hunch, she's most usually right. It's not like Imogen would sabotage her own twin's job if she didn't have valid concerns.

    I really dislike how Amber never stands up for Daniel or tells Josh to stop winding him up. It's Josh's smugness, arrogance and possessiveness that pushes Daniel's buttons. He should be there for the baby, not ingratiating himself into Amber & Daniel's relationship. Amber should be grateful that Daniel still wants to be with her and, is willing to co-parent Floater's child. I really feel sorry Daniel in this mess. He's done nothing wrong, yet has somehow drawn the short straw.

    BIB- i also feel terribly sorry for daniel but perhaps it's karma for how he was cheating with amber on josh?
    But Josh treated Amber like crap, so Daniel and Amber falling for each other was Karma for that. You could say that this is Karma for them cheating, but having Josh come up smelling of roses doesn't sit well, considering he's still the same selfish, smug jerk, now obsessive and possessive to boot. If Josh had completely changed, then I'd embrace the Karma angle more willingly.

    Karma is Josh losing out in the end.

    I cannot blame Terese for having issues with Lauren spending time with Brad. However, didn't Terese get involved with Brad when he was with someone else? What goes around, comes around and all that.

    Still catching up on demand, so I can skip the Paige scenes.:D

    Terese did not know Brad was married, when they 1st got together. Brad said he and Beth drifted apart and they got married to young etc. So i think Terese being insecure is realistic. If he could cheat on one wife and kissed Lauren behind his back then he can cheat again.

    Paul and Nick are right (strange to say). She can do soo much better than Brad and his dramas.

    Brad has become one of the dullest characters that i have seen on neighbours for a long time, he also isnt very likable and when bad things happen to him i just cant sympathize with the character. He goes round thinking he is the most innocent man there is and of something isnt right he just flaps his arms. Personally i cant wait until he is written out, although that may be a long time to wait. Rant over:)

    I completely agree. I think both Matt and Brad were ill conceived. What were the PTB thinking with these two. Completely let down the characters of Lauren and Terese. At least we are rid of Matt, hopefully Brad is next.

    I have to say i think Matt and Terese would have worked well together but that cant happen, i didnt mind the character of Matt as you could understand him and sympathize with him which isnt possible with Brad. Perhaps they should give Brad a storyline that doesnt revolve around his kids.

    It's like Amy's looking for reasons to cease all contact with Paul. At least give him a chance. If he started losing interest, then tell him that it's not working out. She just doesn't seem willing to give him a chance at all. In fact, she's behaving as if she dislikes him intensely and is just trying because it was someone's dying wish. I wish she'd at least give him a chance. Yes, okay, he didn't bother with her over the years, but people can change. I think she's being way too hard on him and isn't giving him a chance. I just feel like yelling at her to give him a bloody chance! I agree about Sonya.

    I did enjoy Amy and Naomi's little spat it was like a good old fashioned soap argument.

    How very strange that Jayden is still loitering around after all this time, especially since he doesn't seem to be doing anything. I laughed at him trying to blackmail a date out of Paige

    I'm quite like Nate's storyline and it's nice to see him doing something without Chris or Tyler

    I'm glad that Sonja used her past mistakes to make Amy see that people can change. I think Nate had to tell that lass that her boyfriend had kissed him because she was demanding that he tell her. As for Jayden...I really can't see Paige getting with him, especially as she hasn't shown any interest in him whatsoever. Olympia is a very nice looking lass, so I can see why Jayden wants to get with Paige.

    Or even worse "this baby" .... on the subject of which, I feel like punching the screen whenever Josh's smug and arrogant face appears. I hope he gets done for pushing illegal supplements.

    Josh convinced this surgery will work. How exactly does he intend to pay for it and didn't Karl say they won't do it in America until there is a diagnosis which can't be done until 20 weeks?

    I don't know who bugs me more: smug, arrogant, pushy Josh, or how Amber treats Daniel. She praised him for how well he's handled the situation, then completely dismisses his opinions. If she wants Daniel to be a step-father to her baby, then surely he has to have some say in the baby's welfare, otherwise he'll never treat the kid the way he should. Taking Josh's opinion over Daniel's just b/c Josh is the father is ridiculous, especially when Josh is talking sh!t.

    The CDH specialist (and Karl) can't all be wrong. There is a reason why the procedure hasn't been fully approved in Australia, and rushing to America (without even having a confirmed diagnosis) is foolish.

    I've enjoyed seeing the #24 and #30 backyards. Its been a long time since we've seen #24's pool, due to the mess Susan Bower created with the real life owners.

    Bower seems to have been the real issue for Neighbours, she brought it away from a family soap and the mismatched families just didnt work, remember Declan, Donna, Bridget, Kate and Ringo lived on the street without any full set of parents (taking into account that Steve and Miranda were Bridget's adoptive parents). Also she instilled a lot of anger going on both within the storylines and in production. Luckily Jaesk started to repair it and Herbison seems to be doing a good job resurrecting it.
