Well how about hopping over for a much needed holiday in a place that is as close to paradise as anywhere I have ever seen in my time on this planet?
:)
We have a spare room, a spare motorbike, car, horse, mountain bike, kayak, fishing rod, space in the pool, and if you google Forster in New South Wales- Halidays point and pacific palms and black head beach you will see some of our stomping grounds! Come and swim with wild dolphins and be our guest!
We would love to share it with you!
We are off to Byron blues festival this weekend (many old farts playing including Paul Simon robert plant and status quo) and then in a couple of weeks we will see war horse at the theatre!
You could teach the local GPs so much and chill here with us.... Go on...you know you're tempted!
