damn, its beautiful
Im off to the Barossa Valley this morning for work and damn, the weather is beautiful. Clear blue skies and sun, looking forward to seeing all the grape vines in their autumn glory and consuming some fabulous Barossa produce. Last week in country Victoria it nearly killed me walking past the op-shops knowing i had no time to stop and browse, thinking of all the treasures that are really only findable and affordable in rural second hand shops AND I WAS WALKING BY! So my lovely colleague has actually factored in some op shop time this trip! What a treasure! Thats my kinda work trip and my kinda colleague!

Allerei - a charity shop in the
centre of Tanunda (great jam and
relish and produce from people's
gardens). There's a good 2nd
hand bookshop nearby too.
Your colleague knows how to do it well indeed. Sounds like a great trip.
Op-shopping is just the best in country towns that the city hasn't reached as yet.
Hi Kel
I should ask you for a coffee (my word verification is coffeask). Hope you have a lovely day. Are you around on Thursday?
Cheers
