Ularooo! Neighbours memories

[mothmagnet]

Does anyone remember when Lucy sneaked a bit of Ayers Rock home and then a curse befell Ramsay Street? Every time something new happened, she'd wail 'Ularoooo!'

Or wondering what lamingtons were and saying "you dag" to your friends?

My big crush was Paul, even though he only had a couple of facial expressions.

Proof!

Nobody seems to have mentioned the lovely <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&safe=off&client=ubuntu&hs=NqF&sa=X&channel=fs&biw=1280&bih=608&tbm=isch&prmd=imvnso&tbnid=qX6OYBBDRttwhM:&imgrefurl=www.angelfire.com/wa3/datigers57/sam-k.html&docid=D2uE5dEExDKfuM&imgurl=www.angelfire.com/wa3/datigers57/images/Sam%252520Kratz%252520%252520Richard%252520Grieve4.jpg&w=210&h=153&ei=TDkYT42zMI7Isgagg8HZDQ&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=220&vpy=153&dur=2840&hovh=122&hovw=168&tx=111&ty=95&sig=113741769946593126383&page=1&tbnh=122&tbnw=167&start=0&ndsp=21&ved=1t:429,r:7,s:0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Sam Kratz. Possibly one of the most wooden actors ever but lovely to look at.

Brad was ugly though, can't see what anyone ever saw in him

Mi4, whilst Cheryl's barnet was no doubt impressive, I recommend you Google "Kirsten Rausing", the richest woman in the UK.

I've met her and the hair is even more impressive in real life!

Ok, this is an obscure story line that only I see to remember. The Gottlieb brother who at first pretended to be french so people would think he was a quality chef... well I clearly remember a story line where he hit his head somehow and as a result of the head injury became ultra religious. So much so that he changed the name of the coffee shop (which he was running at the time) to the Holy Roller. Does anyone remember that...? Was he the same one who was supposed to marry Annalise but became a priest? Did he every hit his head again and come back to his senses?

He was the same one that ditched her at the altar to become a priest. I think he spent the whole of the ceremony up to the point he ran out staring at a crucifix.

I recall that Claraballabunting :)

clarabellabunting, that actor was also in home and away, I think as a teacher.

Joel Samuels was rather yummy, and still is if google is anything to go by.

There was also a rather attractive bloke who house shared in Toadies house for a while, then I think the actor suddenly changed, but can't find him anywhere.

Yes, he was in H&A too, wasn't he? As was Sam Kratz if I remember right.

Oh just seen Daniel Macpherson was in The Bill.

I'm so glad I didn't imagine that story line. Thought it sounded a bit far-fetched but then this is Neighbours, we're talking about!

I think Mark Gottlieb ran the coffee shop with Harold, didn't he? And Annalise also worked there. Harold was religious too so was probably also behind the rebranding of the coffee shop. I wonder if it was pre- or post- Harold's hiatus when he was swept from the rock and lost his memory and joined the salvation army...

Have been been reading up on Harold Bishop on Wikipedia and am quite shocked at what he got up to after I stopped watching!

"In 2003, Harold suffers a stroke and his personality changes. He leaves the Salvation Army, becomes a "peeping tom", starts drinking alcohol and he pinches Izzy Hoyland's bottom"

I'm sorry I missed that!

I love Libby and Drew. They should never have killed him off :(

Will Griggs, that's who I was thinking of, apparently not replaced but written out quickly and replaced in house by his brother, I obviously wasn't paying attention.

Does anyone else remember all the angst with Libby and Drew? All of the long shots of them gazing sadly in to the distance while a song played that went 'If I had you, I wouldn't neeeeeeed this driiiiink....'.

Ooo Clive the doc. Mmm. Incidentally Im named after Nasty Patricia who was in that other Aussie soap with Wayne (Ian Rawlings) but she then cropped up in neighbours as a mad old lady who kidnapped someone because her kid had died. My dad had a mad crush on her !

Brad looked like a barbie doll and was very plastic. Sam Kratz remember him and Marlene.

Do you remember Bruno Alessi who had the reversed vascetomy and his moany wife Cathy

Back off row He's mine!!!!

I adored him.....sigh..........

Wasn't there someone called Bronwyn that went out with Henry?

And wasn't Bouncer's replacement owned by Mrs Mangel and called Pembroke?

Yes, Bronwyn had a big thick fringe I think and did marry Henry. Was it her sister Catherine that Mal Kennedy has forgotten he is married too or am I confused.

Just watching neighbours now...a good flashback sequence featuring Karl and Susan Kennedy :)

Catherine was Sarah's sister, I think - the one (Sarah) that Karl had an affair with.

Bronwen was Sharon's sister, iirc - Sharon went out with Nick for a bit.

Bah. Bronwyn is not Catherine's sister. I am clearly confused by about 5 years!

Yep Silverfrog, that's right!

god, i can't believe I can remember all this shit important detail - I can't even remember what I went up for when I get to the top of the stairs most days!

I remember when Sharon was heading out on a date (or trying to impress a guy anyway, can't remember who) and she slathered herself in fake tan, really badly, which turned her patchy and orange and stained all her clothes.

Wonder what happened to her.
