Peg-Leg's Shoe Fetish

Did anyone see Paul (on Monday I think) manically shining his shoes? He had about three pairs in front of him and was scrubbing them frantically. Me thinks that the "writers" confused agoraphobia with obsessive compulsive disorder.

Or maybe Paul wanted really shiny shoes to compensate for that fact that he only has one good foot... or in fact, one real foot. Although actually, does he really want to be drawing attention to the fact that he only has one leg?!

The "writers" really don't think these things through!

Also, sod university! I'm going to open a hot dog stand and make thousands just like Dylan did! That's realistic!

And how about Toadie? I think that the reason that his only storylines involve him being yelled at for being bad at relationships is so that they can bring Dee back and have him screw things up with her (cos nobody is ever happy in Neighbours.)

Well those are my only observations for now. Toodles all!

He's BAAAAaaaack!

Oscar is the best one out of the whole of Neighbours... he's just brilliant... I'm going to steal him one day.

Anyways, you know a show's going to be good when it starts with "Mum, Mum! Help, I'm being committed!"... ah, good times.

But ignoring the ludicrous Steph-being-committed storyline, let's talk about the ludicrous Harold-disappearing storyline.

For anyone who has missed it (shame on you!) Harold went all evil and tried to kill Paul because he wanted revenge for Paul killing his son (which technically wasn't Paul's fault... but if it means that Paul will die then I'm prepared to go along with it!) Then Harold had some weird moment of clarity when he realised that actually killing Paul was stupid and not the right thing to do (he's right of course.... Izzy should be the one to be killed!!! Surely, one day someone will listen to my pleas...)

So off he goes, disappearing cos he's feeling all guilty... and presumably cos he can't be trusted around Paul. So he disappears... and then no-one seems to notice... Connor knows Harold left because Harold left him a note asking him to look after the General Store... but Connor wasn't worried. Sky, who is now completely abandoned, has barely said a word about it. We presume she is just living on her own now... And nobody just seemed the slight bit bothered until Lou got back and Lou put two and two together and realised that Harold might have tried to kill Paul (how on earth he reached that conclusion I don't know.) Suddenly Connor, Toadie and Lou were trying to hide the fact that Harold had disappeared from the police (namely Stuart... I have a theory about Stuarty actually. I think the reason why he suddenly found his calling to be in the police force was simply cos they needed a police officer in some of the stories... why bother with new cast members when some of the existing ones can be recycled!!!)

Anyways, it's all ridiculous. That's why we love it though.

My final thoughts are that Neighbours is in danger of becoming "The Timmins Show." Kill some of them off... preferably Janelle, Kim and Janae. They're the worst ones.

Ciao!
