Marion - I think I have my answer. I typed Ray Meagher into my search and found a few references to 'smearing' Ray's name. I must say, I feel a lot better about it now. I didn't think he would be allowed by his employers to have a page like those - even if he wanted to - and I just couldn't see him being a person like that.
How cruel some people can be.

Will take a look Berona.

On browsing through the Facebook pages of some of my favourite programs, I came across two in the name of Alf Stewart. I have asked on the other sites if the actor (Ray Meagher) has anything to do with these FB accounts, but so far, no one has answered me. Each of the accounts has Ray's photo on it, but that wouldn't be hard to get hold of and I can't help wondering if he really does have anything to do with them, or is someone using him as a 'front'.
To put it mildly, I was shocked at the content of both of the accounts.The word 'sickened' comes to mind, too. I know that public figures can accept that they will be used on the internet. I would just like to know if Ray has anything to do with these. Has anyone else seen them?

Nice to see you all here. Hope you are all well and enjoying H&A.
It doesn't seem to matter where we live - there will always be a surprise for us at some time. Nobody thought of Boston being under attack!

It throws me out, too, having the double dose on Thursdays. I find myself settling down on Friday evenings, ready to enjoy it, and nothing happens! I've been busy lately, having my say on their Facebook pages. Don't know if any of the producers or writers read it, but I feel better after I've said my piece!

This latest one of Dex's nurse 'fudging' the blood pressure readings of a patient - is a new one on me. Never heard of that happening before - I wonder if one of the writers has had a nasty experience? Then, when Dex offered to report her, she threatened him with exposure re their clandestine trips into the broom closets during working hours! I somehow don't think this romance will last much longer! and I can see April, waiting in the wings.

Barbara,theres a lot of goings on in Emmerdale over the years.Glad I dont live there lol

Hello Berona Marion.Kim well what can i say .its upseting at the moment .poor Romeo .with his illness & my friend Liam going out of the programme ,& now Gina .its so uplifting these days to watch soaps .explosions in Neighbours & murders in Emmerdale .I know were i live touch wood I am safe :-D Take care All Barbra xx

Arrghhhh.
Just typed put a big page and I lost it.
Nice to see you Barbra hope all is well with you.
not been on much lately,so sory for igoring you all.

Had a lump in my throat at Jett saying he wanted to be adopted.

So - we finally got to see the funeral. And now good-hearted Brax is providing the refreshments for the crowd of mourners. Good old Brax!
Looks like his latest love is not the nice girl she seems to be. The cops want to have a word with her. Nice to see Xavier once more. Pity Hugo couldn't be there - isn't he in Witness Protection, or something? From what I remember, he is supposed to be dead, but took off either to hide or to be hidden.

I am very critical of the writers, but I will give credit where it's due. The idea they came up with to write out Gina, was good. So unusual in soaps and a shock, as it was meant to be. . However, I have to criticize the chanel for giving us glimpses of the funeral since before the season started. Showing us that it was attended by the students en masse, narrowed the field to a student or staffer, and after many more 'glimpses', it wasn't hard to notice who was unaccountered for. This took the surprise away from it when it actually happened. This is only one of the many things that chanel does which annoy me.

Not a good ending last night, came quicker than I anticipated. I thought it would unfold next week. Another good character gone. :-( Marilyn and her dreams are spot on.

Fed up with these double episodes on Thursday night, it throws my whole weekend out.

I don't like Dex's nurse, she seems somewhat sleazy. I think he might be having second thoughts. Time will tell.

I'm bored with the Spencer/Chris/Maddie scenes and Rosie too, got to come up with something better.

Winter chill has set in here, much cooler today.

Hello Barbara, Haven't heard from you for a while. Are you well?

Yes, Liam and Romeo bowed out. Indi is handling it by being nasty to everyone - Casey is hot-headed and jealous of Kyle because Kyle has feelings for Tamara - who doesn't seem to have any feelings at all for anything or anyone.
Brax is still looking after his family. He seems to have gotten over his grief for Charlie since Adam's sister arrived in Summer Bay. Dex and April are no longer an item, now that he is working with a nurse who is a sex-pot, trying to get him into any closet or broom cupboard.

Oh dear me all the comings & goings in H&A cant keep up with it .did somebody say liam leaves ? ah well poor romeo .ill , going to be surfing in the sky .maybe they will be changing soaps .as in neighbours they are getting rid of folks after the fire at Toadys Wedding ,i need a lie down .old age dont you know x will need to come on here more to keep up Bye for now ,Ladies Barbra x :-)

Hi.
Just popping in before I go out.
Was so sad when Romeo broke down in front of Syd.Kept telling myself it's not real lol.
So the two have run off together,Romeo and Liam.

Talking of double epsodes,we have a special of neighbours on tonight,regarding the fire at the wedding.
Better not confuse myself with the two programmes lol

must dash
Marion

I remember seeing Liam go into one place and shake hands with a few people, telling them he was leaving to spend more time with his son. Can't recall who the others were, but I do remember Irene giving him a hug (also Bianca held him close, in a 'goodbye' way) - so it must have been the diner. Just can't recall who the others were. I tried to look in on the replay on Sunday, but it wasn't shown. May have been the previous week.

Yes, I realise that Tamara must be 18 to serve drinks, - but do the writers think of that? I often see flaws in the writing which show that they haven't sought the right advice before going gung-ho into their story.

The Kyle/Tamara thing was inevitable. She should have just kept away, why lead him on. She would have to be 18 if she is serving drinks at Angelo's. She's just young looking for her age.

I can't believe why no one (who doesn't already know) is not asking where Romeo and Liam are. Not a word!!!! John hasn't even asked and he is always in and out of the gym.

Will be interesting to see what next week brings.

Just looked at the double episode of H&A (Thursday) and I'm now wondering if we are getting as much as we should be getting?
Where usually it runs for 35 minutes and we thought that the amount of commercials caused it to run over time - I noticed tonight that it ran for exactly one hour. . Based on it being a double episode, that means that we lost 10 minutes, and I couldn't see that we had less commercials than usual.

Darryl has tossed Kyle out because he kissed Tamara - who ran straight to Casey and caused trouble between the brothers. She handled the situation herself, so she could have waited until later to tell Casey. Just how old is she supposed to be? Even without the school uniform, she doesn't look any more than 14.

Yes, I agree it must be Gina. Everyone else seems to be accounted for and for the students to be in attendance too, and Jett fainting. I wonder if it has anything to do with the boy who Rosie alleges raped her? or if it's natural causes?
The question is - - - when is it going to happen? This week? or will we be seeing the scene until we get tired of waiting for it? Don't forget double issue Thursday!

it makes me mad when they keep giving us scenes of what is on 'next' - only five minutes away - and put so much time between the final scenes of H&A. This is how I sometimes wonder how I missed something. The commercials come on and mixed with scenes of the next program, that I often get up and wander off - and forget to come back! Sometimes, I come back and realise that H&A is still on!

Must have missed the football socks Berona. I hope they were clean. :-D

Saw that funeral scene again, got to be Gina. I expect Sally is coming back to be principal.

Another boring episode tonight. I just wish they would get on it, instead of meandering in and out of useless scenes. I think Tilda's part is finished, but these other new kids are just not doing it for me. :-S

There must be very good opportunities waiting for these main characters if they are all leaving and there's no one to replace them. :-(

You can't be very far behind us then, Marion. Hope you can cope with all the new ones better than I can. What with Madi, Tilda, Rosie, Adam's sister, Dex's nurse, etc., I can't keep up with them - and that's only the girls! Of course, we will know Sally when she comes into it in a few months - but I'm happy to wait for that.

Kim - I thought Brax looked lovely wearing a suit at the awards night - until he showed us that he was wearing his 'lucky' football socks and ankle boots! Maybe he looks so relaxed in his checked shirt because he really is comfortable dressed that way.

Hi ladies.
It was trying to snow again,but didnt come to anything.
Weird weather all round.
We had a bit of rain yesterday,that's the first for weeks.

Romeo has had his mole checked out.
