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.

Annalise was dating Sam and started seeing Stonefish behind his back. She was caught in a sheet iirc.........

Yeah, Catherine and Sarah looked absolutely nothing alike........although that does happen with siblings.

I linked a pic of Bronwyn earlier she was sister 1

Izzy the sociopath........I forgot about her!

Stonefish went out with Cody at some point, didn't he?

and who was the trainee policeman (Luke? - how did he fit in to the street?) whose fault it was that Cody got shot?

Sevenfold, was it? I barely watched H&A, that episode obviously stuck with me!

I remember Luke! - he was a trainee police officer but at his medical they found out he had cancer. I remember having a bit of a thing for him as he had a lovely face with a sexy mole on his cheek.

I'm not sure how he fitted in but wasn't he one of the randoms living in Number 30? - later the 'house of trouser'.

oh yes, he did have cancer, didn't he?

yes, he was just a random - but they usually come up with some completely unrealistic reaosn for the randoms - you know, a brother's-friend's-auntie's-cousin once met their parents, and mentioned Ramsey street etc etc.

Glenn is another one that jsut popped into my mind - wasn't he Jim's illegitimate son? and din't he end up paralysed (or was that Stephen Gottlieb? or both?)

Glenn went out with Gabby, I think.

Couldn't forget about Izzy if I tried - she (Natalie Bassingthwaite) was one of the judges on Australian X Factor last year - she replaced Natalie Imbruglia. And subjected us to a performance of her latest single at some point during the show.

That family that Susan Kennedy married into, with Zeke and Rachel? I could never work out what was going on with the casting of the older sister Katya.

Don't watch it anymore, but I was a fan from the early days and had the sticker album too. I wanted to be Bronwyn

Lovely Luke was the brother of the woman that got together with Phil Martin, whose name escapes me

Oh and I saw Brett Stark on a train in Sydney once

the Kinski family, Berry? I think the idea was the the children's mother was Tibetan or something like that (goes off to google), and Katya looked most like her.

I have just snorted and chuckled and giggled my way through this whole thread

And the only contribution I have is that Mike's (Guy Pearce) favourite dish that Daphne used to make him, was Lemon Chicken

I fucking LOVE this thread. Truly.

The actor who played Sam Kratz looks upsettingly like Julian Assange now...

Yes, but did we ever ascertain if i was dreaming when I remembered that bouncer nearly drowned in a pool, and clive the vet rescued him? Although now I think about it, didnt the original dog drown and bouncer was the replacement?

Green, that cant be true, nobody ever eats anything but casserole in Ramsey ST!

It was "lemon chicken caserole"

Daphne used to marinade the chicken inside her tights.

I was quite keen on Frazer Yeats (aka George Brown) and that whole story line with him and Rosetta Cammeniti kept me watching for a while. It did make me smile that his parents had named their 4 sons after the Beatles...

I still have my Neighbours board game, we used to enjoy making up extravagant storylines involving Mrs Mangle

My sister and I used to think that <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=marlene+kratz+from+neighbours&hl=en&sa=X&biw=1280&bih=675&tbm=isch&prmd=imvnso&tbnid=Ew97MCUos5L_hM:&imgrefurl=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Marlene_Kratz.jpg&docid=G6lLtjPIs1zRiM&imgurl=upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6f/Marlene_Kratz.jpg&w=259&h=262&ei=rKsYT4Jg1P7xA8-F-Z4L&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=544&vpy=126&dur=1609&hovh=209&hovw=207&tx=88&ty=133&sig=108290029143880883754&page=1&tbnh=155&tbnw=153&start=0&ndsp=17&ved=1t:429,r:2,s:0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Marlene (Chezza's mum) looked like an owl...I think I shall have to introduce her to this thread

Nu uh, 'Limmin Chick'n' it was, I remember it well?

Probably cos it was fruit. wi' meat

Blew my tiny mind man

Marlene! Cody and some of the other Ramsay St kids wrote a song about her and sang it to her in the Coffee Shop (what was it called?)

The first line went "MARLEEEEENE! She cooks chickpeas and sauce!"

The Coffee Shop was apparently called the Coffee Shop, according to Wikipedia...

Does anyone else remember Clive James cameoing as a postman?

The brad/Beth/Lauren love triangle - I think he should have picked Lauren.

In that board game, the characters, one was "A lebanese belly dancer" wasnt it? It has stuck in my mind for decades!
