Billy McGregor
This is the place where I was born. Some people call it the country. I call it paradise. I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else, even though we're a long way from anywhere. My friends are here. I spend every morning with them before school. They're special friends. They kind you'd do anything for. Look. See that little guy? That's Joey, and those are his parents Kim and Wal. They love Joey. They're a real close family. ==
[narrating; an RC car with a video camera and a stuffed joey attached to the roof approach a mob of kangaroos under a tree; our view shows a joey in his mum's pouch with the father standing close by]
