School shenanigans and clothing critiques

The Erinsborough posse returned from their Christmas break this week and once again the deb was on everybody's lips. Harry, in particular, was fixated by it, first by trying to confirm his place at the high-school extravaganza and once that was settled, aiming to smuggle booze in with him, just so he could have his way with the pretty Sarah Aquino.

Hazza doesn't have much luck with the girls, does he? I think I know why. Not because of his curly locks or even his tendency for abrupt mood swings, but because in his spare time he wears 3/4 lengths - and long socks. Surely the point of the 3/4 length - a garment won on the legs that is not as short as shorts or as long as trousers - is that some leg is shown, otherwise you'd just wear trousers. Ramsay, however, mixes the 3/4 length not with sporty socks that end at the ankle, but your everyday sock that extends up your shin and calf, meaning there is no leg on display and he looks a complete pillock.

He carried that idiocy into the task of obtaining alcohol. Who in their right mind when trying to buy drink underage would go into an establishment in which they are likely to be known? This moron did. He tentatively walked into Charlie's with his fake ID, supplied by the foxy school bitch, Amanda Fowler, plonked it on the counter and asked the bar geezer for some sauce, before being rumbled by the majestic Lou.

Now even if Harry did not know the bar staff, surely there was a massive likelihood that someone in there would recognise him. And to make it even worse, he went back there later to collect drink from that beardy div who had purchased it for him. Does he have a brain?

Speaking of cretins in school uniform, I move on to Kyle Canning. He's lurked around for quite a while now but he has never done anything to warrant the moniker of "The K-Man." A nickname of that description suggests an element of coolness but this wally is yet to do anything wacky, underhand or sensational. He tagged along with that troublesome ginger kid Justin and hung around with Zeke when he went mental but he has not - under any circumstances - been the mastermind of the operation. K-Man - I think not.

And before I leave Erinsborough High, did anyone see that odd, blonde, clappy-hand kid when Amanda, Kate and Sunny were bickering in the dance class on Friday. Priceless.

Other than the deb, the week was taken up by Elle returning from New York but wishing she was still there and the continued animosity between Libby and Dan, but putting that aside, why does Rebecca always wear a dress?

It makes no sense. I mean, I get that when she's out and about she wants to look the part, but she even wears a frock when she's just dossing around the house, moving ornate furniture or giving one of her traditional motherly chats. Does busty Miss Napier not own jeans and a t-shirt?

Callum - who puts the other kids on the show to shame - certainly owns something, the worst excuse of all time. When someone lobbed a bin on him as he visited his prospective "big school," the rotund kid told Toadie that he fell in it. A person tumbling head first into a rubbish bin and then getting up with the aforementioned item still around their noggin. Yeah, pull the other one son, though if that really happened it would be a You've Been Framed clip I'd pay to see.

That's my rant over, see you all next week.
