She got very hungry when she was here, because there weren't any kangaroos to catch

Russell Tovey is in it, he's usually good in his rolls.

There is a new drama series on tomorrow night about the convicts. It looks a bit racy Tec, so I dont think you should watch it :-D

Do you still have to out and catch your dinner Sue? :-D

What do you think we live in :-0 Our shack has a decent toilet in the backyard. The shower is only uncomfortable in winter when it's cold. A cold shower is refreshing in summer. Boiling a kettle over a campfire is fun :-D

Linda - they have houses now in Australia - nicer ones than ours generally.

Things have moved on since Captain Cook you know :-D

It is just because we know you Aussies love going bush, you aren't used to mod cons

Thank you Linda Quirky............ :-D

Sue - I had no idea you had to sleep in a tent in Shropshire as well :-0
that's awful.
Whatever must you think of English hospitality?

Why do I have to have the tent :-0 That doesn't seem fair :-\ Even when we stayed at this lovely house in Shropshire we were only allowed in to use the bathroom :-(

Tecwyn Report 4 Mar 2015 22:37

Might be better if Sue is allowed inside the house, and me in the tent so as not to cause any damage.

I wouldn't feel comfortable knowing there was a damsel roughing it in the garden :-D

Tec, Sue will take the tent, you may stay in the house. Well as long as you don't knock any lumps out of the paintwork with your wheelchair

I have just looked at the rooms, they are mad. I think that room is accessed from outside sylvia, not just its bathroom

The rooms are in a building opposite the pub. they also own a really nice pub at the other end of the village, that isn't as expensive, but is still posh. we have eaten there a couple of times.

The people who own them also run a very upmarket deli in Helmsley

Hi Sue xx

I found the rooms at The Star very interesting


one had the bath at the foot of the bed :-S

One had a snooker table in the room, another had a piano


Another ground floor room had the description written in such a way that it sounded as if you had to go out into the courtyard to access the door into the bathroom :-S :-S


Every room was different



I think they might be best describer as ................... idiosyncratic :-D :-D

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 4 Mar 2015 22:23

Is the tent big enough then? :-D

LindainHerriotCountry

LindainHerriotCountry Report 4 Mar 2015 22:21

Well we can all go out together. Tec, you can come and stay here as well, we have room, now wouldn't that be fun

Tecwyn
