A trip to Prestatyn was the farthest we ever got Granted it's fiction Pal and not in any way reflective of life down under, however, back in the day, it felt like blissful escapism.
Edit- yes, very sad the lady got pelters. I recall a definite shift in her character towards the end, perhaps the writers were sensitive to the shit the British tabloids gave the character...
It still is "blissful escape" for me Eddie.
I cannot imagine starting the day without watch an episode of Neighbours.
It is so different from the bleak streets of Westherfield and Albert Square.
The sun always shines and there is always a half nekkid babe jumping in and out of the swimming pool in her backyard.
That Paige is hotter than hot.
