Why sally returns to summer bay

Sally had a chat with Sophie about bras and then one with Pippa who took her shopping. She then changed her tune and began feeling proud of her bra and was disappointed when nobody noticed.

Sally liked Peter Mansell and planned to get with him at an unsupervised party. It was their first and last date. Sally was gutted when, after a tumultuous birth, Sophie decided to join her mother in law in bringing up Tamara in Perth causing Sally the loss of her closest yet foster sister.

They eventually married and Sally read out a poem at the ceremony. Sally developed a crush on foster brother Damien Roberts after he accompanied her to a concert and was crushed when he let her down. A devastated Sally sobbed her heart out, repeating over and over that it was so unfair.

Pippa found her on the beach and Sally confided that she had been struggling to contain her grief in order to be strong for Pippa and Michael. Pippa encouraged her to let it all out and they decided to celebrate Mothers Day even though it was bound to be hard on them.

In an attempt to attract the attention of baby boy Craig, Sally joined the cool gang and underwent an initiation which included singing on a snooker table in The Surf Club. Yet another loss in her young life caused Sally fresh heartache and she retreated into herself for a while. Pippa gave Sally money to go away on a school camp angering Michael, as money was tight but Pippa pointed out that it was only tight because Michael had lost money to his son Haydn causing a massive argument.

After more arguments Sally was devastated when Michael moved out and after being forced to chose between Christmas with him or with Pippa Sally lashed out. She screamed at Pippa that she no longer felt part of the family and blamed Pippa firmly for ruining things.

She then ran away from home and Curtis was worried when he found her bag in The City. She turned up safe a week later, but her disappearance had re-opened the lines of communication between Pippa and Michael and a reunion was on the cards.

At first it seemed like the feelings might be mutual and encouraged by Jack, Sally asked him out. Joe though had for some reason turned against Sally and not only knocked her back but did it cruelly. He then proceeded to bully her, calling her a brain and ugly on regular occasions until Sally finally snapped. Sally managed to forgive him and he left town a few weeks later. Eventually his behaviour got too bad and with his sister Donna leaving to travel he was forced to leave the Bay.

The next guy Sally got close to was Nelson MacFarlane. They shared a moment on the beach and Sally stuck up for him in public, endearing herself to him.

Jack caused a bush fire and Nelson was badly burnt pulling him to safety and struggled to come to terms with his disfigurement. He pushed Sally away before eventually departing the bay for a burns unit in the city. Sally injured her ankle in a bush walk and as Jack stayed with her they saw new sides to each other and grew close before finally sharing a kiss finally admitting that they liked each other. Despite Jack being tempted by Chloe in her absence she and Jack reunited and Michael was forced to accept them.

Determined to find somewhere they could be alone together they began sneaking into Caravans until Michael finally gave them the use of one in order to keep their relationship away from the younger kids.

They rowed further when Sally gave their Caravan up to a broken man Brendan who needed a place to stay and realising they were too different, they broke up soon after. Upset at the sudden death of Shane Sally was swayed by the arguments of a lonely old man who was convinced that sally was the reincarnation of his daughter Caitlin. Caitlin had died in a car crash and Mr Moss had spent his life feeling guilty about not swerving in time to save her.

He and Sally instantly shared an unexplainable connection and Sally started to believe that maybe his theory was true. Pippa and Michael were worried but Sally refused to give up on the friendship and even agreed to go and view their old house to see if she remembered it. Sally was worried sick when she heard that Michael had been washed into a swollen river after saving Sam in a storm but she comforted Jack who felt guilty about not holding onto him.

It was Sally who did the everyday things and comforted Christopher and Sam and held the family together. Pippa finally broke down and they held each other, sobbing.

Jack, still struggling with his guilt, later left the bay to join the army. She struck up a strange friendship with Jesse McGregor but with Michael and Jack gone, plus Shane and Angel and new, younger kids arriving at the caravan Park, Sally began a time of turmoil.

Shannon and Selina decided to cheer her up by taking a raft out onto the river but tragedy struck when the raft fell apart and all three were deposited in the river. Shannon and Selina managed to swim to safety but there was no sign of Sally. She was missing for weeks as a frantic search was underway and everyone became desperately worried. It was Steven who refused to give up on her, determined to redeem himself after a bad patch he became convinced that Sally was alive but only just.

His relentless search was rewarded when he found Sally in the nick of time. She had been held captive by a schizophrenic man called James Grace. Suffering from the effects of being in the river and being kept captive, Sally was desperately ill by the time they found her. Luckily she made a full recovery. Sally struggled to cope with running the family and supporting Pippa as she increasingly pushed them all away. Tim genuinely liked Sally and their relationship was a slow burner and quite sweet and genuine.

Tim worked away a lot which was difficult for them but they managed it until Tim was accused of being involved in a scam to bring illegal immigrants into Australia. With him under the threat of deportation Sally slept with him and he was sent away soon after. Angry that he had betrayed her trust and had to go away, Sally took her anger out on Shannon who she blamed for reporting him and she underwent a rebellion.

She stole exam papers for him and slept with him in the back of his van but Scott showed his true colours when he told everybody about their liaison damaging her reputation. Tim returned to the Bay having been given a good behaviour bond and despite his horror over her affair with Scott, he managed to forgive her.

She supported him during his depression at having seriously injured his knee but was shocked when Tim proposed to her. She turned him down believing it was too soon and a devastated Tim ended the relationship. As Shannon left the bay Sally succumbed to a gambling addiction, something she was first introduced to by Tim. The man in question flirted with Justine in an attempt to make Sally jealous but quickly twigged that her gambling was the real reason behind her mood swings.

He surprised her with a dinner date and later asked him to join her up North for Christmas and Sally accepted. With Pippa making the decision to go travelling with Ian, Sally assumed that she and Tim would be put in loco parentis at the caravan park.

When Pippa instead turned to Travis and Rebecca, Sally was hurt but after arguments with Tim she contemplated going with Pippa before eventually opting to stay. Tim though had begun to show signs of jealousy and after he upset he by bringing up Scott Sally finished things. After flowers failed to do the trick and Sally made her feelings abundantly clear, he left the bay for good. No longer feeling at home in the caravan park house she made the decision to move in with Vinnie and Jesse but found moving out of her childhood home harder than she had thought.

There were teething problems at her new house when Jesse and Vinnie took living with a woman to be symbolic with live in slave. Eventually Sally lost it and insisted on equal chores so Vinnie drew up a rota to placate her. She started a part time job at Bonza Burgers, juggling it around her degree. She started a relationship with older man Sean Ellis after he gave her surfing lessons, much to the disgust of his teenage daughter Daria.

Their relationship fizzled out after the combined efforts of Daria and a jealous Gypsy drove them apart. Sally turned him down though and he departed the bay with his daughter to start afresh elsewhere. Sally was shot when a siege at The Diner went wrong and she took the only bullet.

Luckily she made a quick recovery and bonded with Jesse over their shared depression. They then worked together to pep up Vinnie who was despondent over Justine choosing Tom over him. Despite growing feelings for him, Vinnie teased her about being too serious so Sally took a walk on the wild side and dated a dodgy guy but she regretted it when he turned out to be a jerk. A jealous Vinnie kicked him out and it seemed the feelings were mutual.

They finally admitted their mutual attraction and became a couple. They initially kept their relationship quiet and took off on a secret holiday together. They were caught kissing by Justine who had decided she wanted Vinnie back. They went public with their relationship and enjoyed a relatively trouble free few months except for a brief pregnancy scare that terrified them both. Vinnie was diagnosed with testicular cancer and Sally stood by him but when coming out from surgery she was horrified when he called for Justine.

She forgave him but they hit a troubled period as his web cam broadcast her naked on the internet and her new boss at Bonza Burgers turned out to be Adam Cameron who she and everyone else in the bay had practically driven out of town after he killed Bobby.

He began making her life at work a misery until she resigned. Vinnie became jealous of her course mate Angus and Sally considered cheating on Vinnie with him but never went through with it. She was angry to find out that Vinnie had kissed a model Bianca in order to win a part in a film. Realising that Bianca had instigated everything sally forgave him but quickly realised she had trust issues.

After a succession of arguments she ended things, deciding that they were just too different. Vinnie made several attempts at winning her back, even using Justine to make her jealous before finally accepting it was over.

Soon after Vinnie told Sally that she was boring and though things through too much. This deeply hurt Sal and so she went out clubbing one night with Shauna, bringing home some guy named Rex. However, Rex ended up nicking the video recorder and Sally was left chastened by the experience. She then did some more unexpected and put her name down for a trip to Ireland that her Uni were running and left the following day.

About two months later, she returned, now engaged, to Kieran Fletcher. Sharing the same surname, the hotel that they were staying in had thought they were a couple and booked them room together. They fell for each other and were soon engaged. Unfortunately for them, a family from the city outbid them and their dream engagement present was scuppered. At first no one believed her, but then Colleen and Hayley stood up to back Gypsy up.

Initially Sally felt great hatred towards Gypsy, but soon her family talked her around and she realised that she should indeed be thankful for Gypsy for preventing her from getting into a marriage with someone she could not trust. Sally then had a condition named OCD spring up after this, and she was constantly washing her hands and skiving off Uni. Sally soon started her teacher training at Summer Bay High. One of her particular lessons, a mummification of a rat was met with disapproval from Donald Fisher.

In the end however, she got the vacant teaching position and would join the Summer Bay High staff in Towards the end of the year, Harry kissed Sally. A defiant Sally insisted she did love Luke but deep down she was having doubts. When Brett Egan, who had been a student teacher at the school, returned full time, he and Sally spent a lot of time together. Sally tried to set him up with Shauna but Shauna suggested he be careful because it was really Sally he was interested in.

Fisher continually pushed them together at school and in extracurricular activities, leaving Sally feeling uncomfortable and doubting her feelings for Luke. She and Brett shared a kiss and Sally ended her relationship with Luke. The next day love hearts appeared all round the school pairing her up with Brett and he seemed to cool off on her. When a pupil mocked Sally and Brett over the school tannoy system, Brett failed to contain his anger and lashed out at the pupil, forcing Sally to have second thoughts about her relationship with Brett.

However she would soon have much greater worries when she was held hostage in a classroom along with Brodie by crazed student, Woody. He's also delighted to see her young daughter Pippa, and is quick to share the news of her return with the other excited residents. The one person who seems taken aback is Roo, but she quickly covers her shock. Harvey needles Roo until she admits that Sally is Alf's 'golden girl' who makes her feel like the nightmare teenager all over again. Soon afterwards, Pippa and Sally elect to stay in a caravan since the house is so full.

Harvey thinks he and Roo should offer their room, but Roo is adamant that Sally and Pippa are fine in a caravan. Later, Sally ruffles Roo's feathers further by bonding with Maddy. When Sally confronts Roo about her behaviour she apologises, revealing her insecurities. The two women decide to make more of an effort with each other, but Roo clocks that Sally seems to be hiding something. Roo speculates that Sally has an ulterior motive for being in Summer Bay. Earlier this month, the pair, who launched their careers on the TV drama reunited at Isla's 45th birthday party in Sydney.
