Not ours but one we came across a couple of years back. The weather was hot, and a young English visitor was staying in it while her boy friend was working his way around Aus. Rather them than me, no air-conditioner either. -- Edited by Pam_Chris on Sunday 1st of September 2013 03:06:19 PM

While watching an English real estate show on Foxtel, I noted that the presenters called into a pub in the Cotswalds and had a "puppy dog pie". It looked great, and they gave a walk through of how to make it, so I had a go at it. It had cubed beef- so I used round steak - rolled in flour and browned in...

One of our favourites since our first visit in 2009. Allan and Lorraine Tinker own some 160 acres of sand plain, 22 km north of Eneabba; a small part of that is set aside for campers, caravans (even big enough for 5th wheelers!) and chalets. The sand plain is famous for its huge range of flowering plants,...
