About
I’m a huge soapie fan living in Cape Town.
7de laan, Isidingo and Generations: Legacy are my soapies of choice. Check out my main blog page at www.glasspearl.co.za. You can also read more about me here on my website and my LinkedIn profile here.
Besides watching soap operas I also do content writing and available to write articles on a freelance basis. Contact me at abigail (@) glasspearl.co.za for rates.
Please note: This is a personal blog with my personal views and my interpretation of the soapies I watch – unless otherwise stated.
Enjoy reading 🙂

I have read a lot of your Isidingo articles and you do not come off as a fan. You may want to change your bio. On another note I do not know why you would charge for your writing based on what you have written. Your blogs are riddled with mistakes and inaccuracies and you clearly have not taken the time to edit your own work. You also do not seem to check your facts and write your assumptions and opinions as if they are the truth. Your posts are highly biased. I was excited to see that somebody was doing recaps on 7de Laan and Isidingo as loadshedding often disrupts my viewing but I am very disappointed to find that this is not a source that I can rely on for truthful recaps and insight. Guess I will just have to keep looking for a good website.
Thank you for your feedback, Julia. I updated this page based on what you said, to reflect that the content is based on my interpretation.
Watching soapies and writing about it is a hobby and release for me. It is not meant to reflect anything other than my opinion. Doing recaps is very, very time consuming and sometimes things get lost in recalling what took place in an episode. The comments section is there for anyone to correct me. I welcome that.
I do hope you find a website that fulfills your needs. And I do appreciate you reading mine when you did.
Hi Abigail,
I appreciate any info I can get on Isidingo as it tends to move on pretty fast. I watched religiously from 2004 to 2007 and still have a love-hate relationship with the show. Any reason why you haven’t updated since 2015? Things are pretty interesting right now, with the usual crazy twists. I know the writing goes through bad patches but seems to have improved for now.
Thanks 🙂
Hi Nicky
Sorry for the late response, I don’t get on here very often anymore.
I haven’t watched Isidingo since soon after Pastor Gabriel left (I know he’s back 🙂 ), I think. I doubt I’ll be going back there again. Of the soapies I only watch 7de laan regularly and Generations the Legacy when I remember. For the rest it’s Netflix or Showmax streaming.
I hope Isidingo continue writing stories you enjoy though 🙂
Take care.
