I just wonder why Alf and Ailsa never acknowledge Bobby is their niece. Also Lucinda is sort of a niece by marriage to them too as Donald is their brother in law!.

I think Adam has stayed for far too long. He should have left last year!. Irene's return and Lynne McGranger's arrival is fast approaching! I believe we are in August 1992 so 1992 season will be finished about May. I think the 1993 season will be an interesting year with new credits and a couple of memorable storylines!.

Does anyone feel that 1992 is the year Donald gets much softer?.

Age between Phil and Marilyn is 18 years and age gap between Donald and Marilyn is like 28 years!.

No one live there that's a character on the show. We saw Irene's bedroom when she was having dreams in 2000.

Well given how quick last year went, June is only around the corner!

Lynne McGranger's arrival is fast approaching!

Well you will be seeing her in new episodes in another month.

Only 6 more to go for the real Irene to arrive!. But it takes forever for Irene to go on the credits.

I'm glad of that because when she first left there was some awful photo shop jobs done to make Debra Lawrance appear in these photos. They tried to wipe her out. Fast forward a decade or two and they happily use Vanessa Downing's Pippa in flashbacks and voiceovers... funny how time heals all! Why was there bad blood between Vanessa Downing and H&A when she left?.

Are we half way through the1992 season?.

I noticed Vanessa Downing is still in photos on the table at the Summer Bay house. But you have to look closely up and quickly!.

Yes, I find him a lot better than Hayden. I really enjoy his banter with Blake! Glad someone agrees with me, he has more personality and is better looking too!.

Does anyone think Simon is a better character then Hayden?.

He sure is So he has come a regular now? Yes he is a regular!

In 1995 Irene became much more like she is today but with only more storylines.

She was 76 years old and wanted time to enjoy her good health.

Did it ever say why Irene turn into alcholic?.

It's hard to believe that after 20 years Irene is the most recpected person in the Bay!.

I think Colleen is like Eileen Clarke and Celia is like Edith Chubb. I think Doris Peters who appear in the Pilot was like Mrs Mangel.

But Morag was never a busy-body like Mrs Mangel.

How do you know?.

Sons and Daughters is finishing this week and I was hoping we could get double episodes to speed things up!. Instead we are getting Shortland in the Sons and Daughters timeslot.

She seemed like she regretted saying to Fin that she had to leave. But I mean Fin has nowhere to go as her mum is not the Irene she is today!.

Well, she only lodges there and the character is at least 17 (possibly 18?). Not sure what legalities apply here... but it is a stupid threat to carry out, because the other two girls will be greatly saddened and wear them down to take her back. And surely it only adds to the dreaded 'stress' on Sophie which Michael seems otherwise eager to avoid... Thanks but she is still at school so I say she is sitll a minor. I must say that I really do find Pippa to be an unlikeable character and Michael is even more unlikeable.
