When I woke up this morning on a wet, dark, November day, I wasn't expecting some Aussie sunshine back in my life. Indeed, I was setting myself up for day of breaking serious news, in particular with Chancellor Jeremy Hunt's autumn budget on the agenda.
But, not long before that, a joyous and completely unexpected thing happened. Neighbours, the only TV soap I've ever watched, is coming back.
And I'm not going to lie. A wave of utter joy swept over me in the moment that I saw the news. I welled up a bit.
