As you may have noticed from my previous posts, we spent last weekend in Ballarat, attending a brass band competition, as well as doing a little retail therapy! We regularly go to Ballarat this time every year, however sadly the place we used to stay in is now not available for rent….but we have found […]
We visited Creswick Woollen Mill a couple of years ago, and my husband bought a beautifully warm alpaca beanie….he loved that beanie, but unfortunately, somewhere on our travels, he and his beanie got separated, and it hasn’t been seen since!

As I hadn’t been on a flight anywhere for over a year, I decided I needed to find a new carry on bag for our recent trip to Brisbane….well, to be honest, I don’t ever need much of an excuse to buy a new bag… First stop was to visit Rushfaster…an online site specializing in […]
Last weekend, we went on a road trip for a weekend away….in Bendigo! Bendigo is a major regional city just over 2 hours drive from Melbourne. The discovery of gold in the 1850s made it one of the most significant gold rush boom towns in Australia! The city is full of historical architectural buildings and […]
I love a market…always have…and I particularly love markets that are unique, and showcase local designers and businesses. As you can probably guess, I love clothes, jewellery, bags, hats..and I love finding items that you can’t find in mainstream shops! That’s a lot of love! So I got a little excited when we were in […]
