Quirky characters abound in Wattlevale, home for the elderly in rural Austalia, workplace for the caring and ambitious. While some residents are waiting for the end, others find lost love, laughter and larrikinism from some true-blue old bushies. In one year, there's plenty of entertainment and humour. Visiting children find their way into the hearts of many, collecting pearls of wisdom along the way.
