This is my 40th post party! Life begins at 40 apparently. I think people just say that to make getting older sound better. Has my blog improved with age like a fine Burgundy? No, I think it is still rough and ready like a cheap Retsina. Oh wait! I am supposed to be ranting about Neighbours not concocting wine similies.
So, Izzy le bitch is back. Praise the lord! I was getting bored with her being down on her luck and almost having to feel sorry for her. And the fact that she is duping Ned, probably the dopiest wet blanket of a character the street has ever seen makes it that much funnier. I still can't bring myself to like her as a character (there's too much water under that bridge) but I am enjoying the Robinson-Hoyland dynamic.
Further, I think the return of Paul as a long term character is one of the wisest decisions the Neighbours team have made in years. The importance of Paul has been hammered home to me particularly of late as i am in the process of compiling a reference guide of street events since Paul's return for a fan of this blog. The whole narrative arc of the street the past year or so would not have come about if it weren't for Paul Robinson. No wonder he drinks Champagne so often....
Who is the best looking Neighbours character ever? I'm open to all tastes and persuasions, I just want a reason why. Come on, entertain me! For me it is Rick Alessi. He was my first memorable crush. I would have been 9 when he joined the show and I was obsessed with him for the longest time. Bring back Rick that's what I say!

Natalie Imbruglia gave me The Horn (tm). But then she said something stupid on Live & Kicking about how the best way to get thin is to not eat bread. To kids! Berk.
Harold is a GILF.
A wise choice young Robert. Long hair and boiler suit, no wonder Brad couldn't resist!
Billy!!!!! Once he got his lame curtains out of the way, and told the concealer-obsessed make-up department to "rack off," he was quite the hottie!
When I was younger I'd eat my tea
from a plate upon my knee.
A tricky task for a growing lad
beans were good but peas were bad.
Off they'd roll on to the floor
the roundest ones under the door.
Who's to blame? I hear you hark
it was that sex-pot Danni Stark.
For plates don't balance on my knob
especially with a lazy lob
So Danni Stark gave me the horn -
literally made me 'spill my corn'
That's my tale of neighbours woe
now s'cuse me duders - it's time to go.
Thank you to all who owned up to their crushes! They each made me smile. :)
