A long, long time ago....we were Neighbours.
We went on this...The Neighbours bus. We felt no shame! We were treated to a medley of hits from past Neighbours stars, we got a bit of Paul Robinsons -Don't It Make You Feel Good, a pop sensation, you have to wonder how such a talent didn't have more success?
Ramsey Street was tiny, really, really tiny. Little known fact - there's actually another house at the end of the street that refused to take part in the show. So the tour guide was encouraging people to go look in it's windows...but we had more exciting things to do like posing outside Paul Robinsons house!
And Harolds house.
And Susan's house, super cheesy....you're starting to get the idea of how our morning was going.
Soon it was time to leave Ramsey Street, much to the delight of the residents I imagine. Next stop, Erinsborugh High. The tour guide whipped this sign out of the back of the bus and hung it up so we could pose again. So much posing. The school is an English language school so we weren't allowed in too far, these poor kids have classes 7 days a week!
This nice photo was achieved by balancing the camera on a wall, setting the timer and belting it up the stairs.
Now for a series of random shots....
After the school we got back on the bus and headed for the neighbours studios. This was highly exciting, we drove in a circle around the compound and didn't even go in the gates! Rachel did have a bit of a moment though when she realised that this was where Rove Live was filmed. We do love Rove!
This ones for you Rachel, I believe it was the one on the 'saucy door' too!
So all too quickly our tour was over and we were deposited back in St Kilda, delighted to have seen where such an iconic and dramatically gripping show is filmed. Live filming every Tuesday if you're in the area and want to have a look.....
Afterthought: I'm not sure why all the photos look so dark, hope you dont strain your eyes too much!
