Herx

Ailsa moved to Summer Bay less than a year before the pilot episode events. At first she briefly had something with Fisher. I'd say they probably were together only for a few months before the show started.

Yes. At the beginning Ailsa was running the Hogan's General Store. She lived in the annexe behind it. Later Frank and Bobby rented this place until Dodge burned it down, killing Steven's uncle Phillip.

Many great characters in this latest update, kind of irks me that so many icons from the past are losing to the newbies who have been in the show for only a couple of months.

Alf's daughter Quinn Jackson also briefly returned after 22 years in 2017, tho not the same actress. Her son Ryder stayed and still lives with Alf. A few years ago Alf and Roo were trapped after an explosion and he thought he won't make it and dropped a bombshell that her mother Martha Stewart was still alive, he'd been knowing it since late 80's. Roo was able to find her mom, in 2020 Alf and Martha got married. (Martha is played by the same actress who played Cynthia Ross in 1991)

I liked Floss, shame she was wasn't around for longer. Are there any recent news or pictures of Sheila? Hope she is in good health and going strong.
