It was great to watch the first ever episode, with cracking acting and real people, how far downhill has it gone with all these "dramas" and "tragedies". The tram crashed through the viaduct before, what are the chances of it happening again.

Oh dear - it's 50 days already! Thanks Sunny Jim - what wonderful reading. Yes, things have changed over the years, but it's still going well, so most of the changes must have been right! Still ploughing through 2003 here in OZ, (they unveiled Maxine's bench this morning) but like many others all over the world, I'll keep watching & reading!

Thank you Sunny Jim, each one of these has been a pleasure to read and has filled in many a gap where I had not been watching over the years. Are you going to start making notes now for the 60th? lol!
