Weir Cottage
Margaret River
Jacqui and John approached us about a home exchange but we couldn't do it (actually, we were on the Gold Coast Australia when they wrote in April 2004). As we often say when this happens we invite people to look us up if they do get to England They did just that and they came to us for a couple of days in July 2004.
Knowing that their place was only a few hours south of Mandurah we arranged to visit them one weekend and had a great time there on their farm and looking around the wonderful countryside and wineries. Jacquie and Shane had their cameras permanently at the ready!
This is a picture of Jacquie taking a picture of Shane taking a picture of Jacquie
taking a picture of Shane.....you get the picture.

The happy couples(!) before dinner at Margaret River (wasn't that patio heater
nice, Jacquie?).
This is one of my favourite shots. It is of a kangaroo, honestly. Click the thumbnail
to reveal his eyes and the fence!

faired much better, hehe)
So, thanks John & Jacquie for making us so comfortable. Hope it won't be too long before we see you again Down Under or Up Over.
