Today Palm House was included in the annual The Age – Good Weekend magazine’s top 52 accommodation destinations! The phone has been ringing all day which must mean people agree with the publication’s endorsement. We realise that we promised more photos of the garden but this was exciting enough to take preference.

After getting up early to intercept the paper we headed to Bendigo to purchase some essentials for our renovations – Leigh hit the hardware shop like a mad thing while Wendy brought some pull cords for the new energy efficient downlight’s we’ve installed in the servant’s quarters. Another suprise purchase was an antique desk for upstairs which we were lucky enough to get our hands on before it was restored. Talk about a snap purchase!
Aside form this news, we took Rex to the annual Castlemaine Sheep-dog trials today (you wouldn’t know he was excited from the photo to the right!). He met a lot of Boarder Collies who were doing their job but he seemed content to sit down and lap up attention from other Boarder Collie owners. After today it seems certain Rex will have a new friend to play with soon…
