Sonya deciding to be Steph and Mark's surrogate? What on earth is that about? Have I missed something? Neither Steph nor Mark have anything medically wrong with them preventing them from conceiving a child. They're not having a kid together because Steph doesn't want another one. Sonya offering to carry the baby and give birth to it wont change that. Surely that would make Steph less inclined to want the child?

Steph's decision is because of her post-partum physcosis and I can fully understand her not wishing to go through that again.

Oh right thanks for that, I must have missed the explanation, that makes sense. I thought Steph simply didn't want another child. Considering she's got two children by two different men - one of which she doesn't have any contact with at all and the other she is having a lot of problems trying to maintain contact with - its no surprise she isn't in a rush to have another child with a third bloke.

Also believe hormonal changes due to pregnancy could re activate her breast cancer.
Plus there's the problem she may have to come off her psych meds if she's pregnant, that or risk them possibly harming the kid. |

I've loved having Kyle back for this mini guest stint. It's given him the send off he should have had in the first place. Amy was right to give him a piece of her mind, as he did treat her badly. She thought they were in it for the long haul, which is why she made a big deal about him wearing his wedding ring and the letter from Georgia. He really wasn't honest with her or himself at the time. I liked Steph having a go at Kyle; she wasn't being a hypocrite, she was defending her friend. No-one else was, as Mark and Sonya was treating him with kid gloves. Really liked that Kyle and Gary finally put their differences aside.
I think they've built up Mark's desire to be a father nicely, and I really liked his scene with Sonya when he was discussing how much he will miss Charlie. But, it's striking that he and Steph both think their relationship won't survive without a child. Sonya wanting to give them a baby in order to keep them together is not the right reason. At least she's asking Susan for advice, unlike how they didn't use her history with a priest to enlighten Paige. I've said it before and I will say it again: I love Lauren and Ned's relationship, and Elly is stupid for being jealous of what is like a mother and son relationship. Sonya, on the other hand, would have known all about Susan's surrogacy and obviously they are close friends (almost family through Toadie) anyway Back on to current affairs Quote:
isn't Elly awful! She and Ned just don;t ring true at all!

What
![]() Elly and Ned's coupling is just silly and it really drags Ned's character down - I hope they dispense of it quickly (and the rate Elly's going she'll make the decision easy for Ned to ditch her) Not to be confused with Scottish Dreich, meaning horrible gloomy weather - but that would also be appropriate for Elly! |

All that said, I don't feel like Steph wants another child regardless of her medical history. Mark has sadly fallen for someone who doesn't want children, much like Paige, and I don't think them having a baby to act as glue to keeping them together is right. Steph and Mark have only been together for a few months; they should let their relationship breathe before considering having a baby. Mark is in a rush to be a father, which seems to have triggered Sonya's addiction for helping people unnecessarily. These people are a hot mess, in a good, soapy way. |

Ned's trapped with Elly now. If Ned breaks up with Elly, she'll no doubt find a way of contacting Regan's husband and then tell him about Ned and Regan out of revenge. Ned shouldn't have said anything about Regan's husband being dangerous. It's obvious it's going to happen though. I can see Mark breaking up with Steph unless there's some way that they can have their own child. It looks like Ned might get a big storyline then with Regan's husband coming after him.

Don't people in Neighbours know how boxing works? don't understand why Paige is getting blamed for what happened, it's kinda irritating. I can understand why Paige is upset, only human to feel bad about it, but she didn't know about the tumour.

People in such situations, where a loved one is fighting for their life, don't always think rationally, and they can look for someone to blame to try and make some kind of sense of what is happening.

There's two ways of looking at it though.
Yes, in this case Angelina had a tumour and concealed it but anybody could have a tumour and be unaware of it so same result. Boxing can cause life threatening injuries - that's a fact and one that anybody that takes up boxing, coaches boxing or allows their premises be used to train have to accept the responsibility of. And many people can't. There is also the issue that one of these troubled kids might use the boxing techniques they've learnt in an uncontrolled environment - again we've all heard of one punch killers in non Boxing situations. I fully understand why the Sponsors wouldn't want to be associated with it. They might lost customers because many people are strongly opposed to Boxing on principle. Did Brad check with his Sponsors before agreeing to have Boxing at the Blaze? Possible they had already pledged their support beforehand and didn't know about it until the publicity surrounding the fight. Poaige is again pissing me off. Yes, of course she is upset about what has happened but she always knew it was a possibility for herself or anybody she fought. She was told again and again. But she knew best. Once again, she knows best about Angelina's operation i declaring that Angelina, who she doesn't know, needs "somebody to fight for her". It is her family's decision - it has nothing to do with her, no matter how guilty she feels. Karl should stop telling her confidential information. |

But it was an Elly-free episode. That has to be an improvement!

Elly lack was wonderful. So, i'm sorry to say, was Steph getting all hurt and mopey about Charlie. It might not have been her fault but of course Max was going to have issues with what haPpened with Ari - especially as he wasn't immediately informed.
And it did seem like Steph was moving towards wanting full custody i all that stuff the other day about wanting to have charlie with her during the holidays as well as term time. You want him all the time in other words?! Elly is deranged. That is all. For once i agree about it being Jack that is habging round poaige and sending out mixed signals. Fair enough lending pastoral support after the fight but he stayed in the coffee shop to watch her because he was jealous. |

Grrrrrr!!! Watching on catch up and just seen Amy forgiving Kyle, wanting to be friends AND giving him relationship advise?? NO no no. What ever you think of this situation and who is to blame (Kyle) No way in hell would that ever happen. They did the same thing with Terese telling Brad to fix his relationship with Lauren. Imagine breaking up with someone because he dumps you to go off with his ex. You are in love him. The feelings are still there. You would be so hurt and angry, theres no way you would end up telling them to tell that other person they love them. What a load of rubbish. kyle is leaving any way so they didnt need to bridge the gap between them. But everything has to be nice and friendly in Neighbours land. It would not have made Amy a bad person to have not made up with Kyle. It makes her human with real feeling because she still loves him. Shame it was so well handled up to that point. And her scene with Kyle where she is crying and laying in to him for leaving her was very real and brilliantly acted.
Also hate Kylie's character of being jolly and happy all the time and acting like nothing he does affects anyone. Glad hes going. |
