Ah lovely Autumn in Tasmania

Don't you just love it!
The mornings are crisp, the days are still warm enough for T-Shirts, the beaches are not crowded so it's an ideal time for a walk, and the evenings are cool enough to sleep comfortably - just bliss.

Bridport is the ideal place to while away some well earned relaxation time now that the hot summer has passed. There are fantastic places to stay including Platypus Park Country Retreat, which is in a quiet location, not in the main street, but on 40 acres(17.5 hectares) of farm and river setting. You'll be amazed at the bird life in the peaceful garden, and you can walk to the Brid river where you might be able to spot a platypus!

The resident hosts are friendly, and helpful and go out of their way to assist weary travelers. If you arrive late they will even make sure you don't go hungry, just because all the shops and eateries are closed. They have a wonderful organic garden where you may purchase some fresh vegetables - always a bonus when on holiday - you do get tired of eating out all the time! Oh and the free range eggs - you just have to taste the difference.

The autumn colours are starting to appear in the North East region. The many poplar trees are starting to turn, and in a couple of weeks will all be glowing golden what a gorgeous sight.

Why don't you take a break in the North East of Tassie right now and enjoy the WOW of autumn!

If Only it Were True

Why do people think we are going to fall for their tricks?

This email appeared today from someone I don't even know.

Who would recommend me as a project manager for such a large project?

Whilst I am capable of co ordinating the odd small building project I would think, if someone was going to recommend me for a job they might at least ask if I was interested first or if I had time????

Dear Sir/Madam,

You have been recommended as a reliable foreign investor and project manager. I am therefore seeking your

cooperation in building a Tourist Hotel or Real Estate in your country. I am sorry if this is not completely in line

with your profession. I need an experienced person like you to assist me set up,develop the project and assume

responsibility of ownership as chairman but will be bringing in profit /distribute profit monthly or annually.I shall

give you more information. Please get back to me immediately on my

private email: jamesibori12@aim.com

Best regards, Gov. James Ibori.

NOW where do I start:

1. I wouldn't be the foreign investor if I was doing something in my own country!

2. What skill set does this person assume I have that is going to be useful for this type of project?

3. Dear sir/madam! If I have been recommended for a task wouldn't you think they would know what gender I am?

At best I am putting this one into the potential scam box and deleting it...So don't get caught!

Peace and Tranquillity

What is it about Platypus Park Country Retreat that is so relaxing?

Why does it attract people looking for a quiet relaxing place to stay at an affordable price?

It just does!
Set on 40 acres or 17.5 hectares Platypus Park Country Retreat in Bridport Tasmania just seems to be magnet when it comes to attracting the right sort of guests.
Perhaps it is the name, perhaps it is the location, perhaps it is the friendly voice on the end of the phone, perhaps it is the laid back 5th generation hosts..... Perhaps it is all these things.
