Answer: True
Your Stars with Christina La Cross Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20) If you're feeling under stress, don't keep it all bottled up but talk to your close ones about it. They say that a problem shared is a problem halved and that was never truer than now for you. Taurus (Apr 21 - May 21) This week may start off slowly but will rapidly gather momentum so clear up any outstanding jobs sooner rather than later. It's the key to you ending up in control and not out of it. Gemini (May 22 - June 21) An exciting new project is forecast, which will take up a lot of your time and energy. Just try to include a close one who is beginning to feel more and more like an outsider. Cancer (June 22 - July 23) You're in popular demand on the social scene and may find yourself committed to more than you can cope with.Know where you need to cut yourself some slack. It's the key to a happy week. Leo (July 24 - Aug 23) Some minor stress is indicated in your day and you may find it hard to get through all of your chores.Organisation is the key to your success, as is making that phone call and ’that' apology. Virgo (Aug 24 - Sept 23) Financial worries may be getting you down but future prospects look more encouraging so persevere. Romance is well starred and relationships take a turn for the better after recent stresses and strains. Libra (Sept 24 - Oct 23) You may be dissatisfied with certain aspects of life but this is a good time to think about alternatives.Other people will be more helpful than you think. Don't be afraid to ask for help. Scorpio (Oct 24 - Nov 22) You spend more time with someone who's beginning to have a major effect on the way you think and behave. Take a step back and look at what is going on. You're about to cross a line. Sagittarius (Nov 23 - Dec 21) You may be housebound by circumstances beyond your control. Make the most of it to finish off a neglected chore. It will give you the confidence to deal with the rest of this dramatic week. Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20) Some sort of material gain is forecast and you start to push away someone who has been nothing but a drain on you of late. Don't be upset. I love the new and confident you that is emerging. Aquarius (Jan 21 - Feb 19) You're still looking back to the past for answers which only the future can hold. Keep your eyes forward or you'll miss out on the many opportunities which the stars have in store for you. Pisces (Feb 20 - March 20) An unexpected expense crops up which may upset your budget. A surprise visitor brightens up your week with an offer you never thought you would hear. Be accepting. It can be the making of you.
Ingredients: ■ 500g lean ground beef ■ 1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs ■ 1/3 cup water (more or less) ■ 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese ■ 1 medium onion ■ garlic ■ salt ■ pepper Preparation: Mix all ingredients together. Don't add all of the water at one time. Mixture should be moist but not so that the meatballs fall apart. Shape meatballs to desired size and place on a broiler pan (I wet my hands before shaping each meatball and it helps make a nice meatball.) Broil until outside is slightly brown on one side and then turn and broil the other side. When finished, add to spaghetti sauce and simmer at least 20 minutes.

Where the Great Ocean Road meets the ‘Hamptons’ When two individuals with exceptional talents get together to explore their own sea change/tree change, exciting results occur. Jock, an architect and landscape architect, learned his craft in Melbourne, taking pleasure in hands-on projects over many years, including the rebuilding and running of the luxury 'The Grange' B&B in Williamstown. Jo's passion is interior decoration and gardening, with many projects in leafy Bayside suburbs. Her natural flair for design has been expressed in both their home and the cottages with a distinct “Hamptons” feel. From the wall papers to the light fittings and deep couches, the whole house oozes relaxed luxury and enduring style. As a keen board rider, Jock returned endlessly to the mystical Otways to chase that perfect wave and in 2000 stumbled upon one of the most unspoilt places on the coast. Jo, also keen for a rural change, was introduced to the magic of Paradise and instantly fell in love with it's beauty and tranquillity. Ten years later Jo and Jock Williamson have a superb property, inspired by their love of all things natural and beautiful. They were fortunate that they inherited a property with good bones; established exotic trees, terraced gardens and wonderful views all around. They have designed, built and decorated two self-contained cottages, used for accommodation, which are set over a picturesque ornamental lake. Their own house, recently extended and renovated is large and comfortable and makes the most of the north sun and views to the surrounding forests. It is a rare thing – a home with all mod cons yet one which allows it’s owners close contact with a truly beautiful part of the world and where one can gain great respect and admiration for nature and the seasons. Their property, only 10 minutes from Apollo Bay along a sealed scenic road, is nestled in one of the most beautiful valleys in the Otways and is unique in that it offers the lush surrounds of rainforest and farmland yet is an easy drive to the ocean – the best of both worlds. Living in the peaceful surrounds of Paradise Gardens, the decision to move for Jo and Jock was never an easy one. “We are looking forward to new building and garden design challenges but leaving one of the most beautiful places in Victoria (and arguably Australia) will be very difficult”.
Where the Great Ocean Road meets the "Hamptons." 'Paradise Gardens and Cottages', is set amidst three acres of beautifully gardens. Offering two story book cottages set over a picturesque lake and a luxurious three bedroom home. This award winning property operates as a successful accommodation business. www.paradisegardens.net.au All buildings have been superbly constructed; include quality fittings throughout and inclusive of stylish furniture and linen with the accommodation.

With a separate external entrance for privacy, this established in-house unit features a king sized bed, a dining setting, and large ensuite with a double corner spa and separate shower. A further queen bedroom is attached to accommodate extra guests. The two gorgeous cottages provide a choice of either two or three accommodation units. The double storey main unit, is self contained, consisting of an open plan living/dining and kitchen area and upstairs king sized bed bedroom, high cathedral ceilings and ensuite with a double spa, large separate shower and decking that extends over the water with an outdoor setting and bar-bcue.

Travellers’ Good Buys
with David Ellis
On track to preserving steamy past ■ What ever it is about trains that attracts people – and it seems the older the trains, the more the attraction – Trainworks has struck gold doing it with the largest rail museum in the Southern Hemisphere. And located at Thirlmere around just an hour’s drive southwest of Sydney’s CBD, it attracts 34,000 visitors a year. Its amazing collection includes Australia’s most-powerful-ever steam locomotive and by contrast one of our oldest, our most palatial rail carriage and conversely our most-feared, and seemingly anything in-between. Visitors are particularly thick on the ground on Sundays, which feature olddays steam train rides from Thirlmere Station to the little village of Buxton and back. These 50-minutes of nostalgia for oldies are equally an eye-opener for kids, teens and younger adults into the way we travelled, and how we moved everything from freight and foodstuffs to prisoners and even our dead, in yesteryear. And several times a year there’s even the chance for the kids to meet Thomas the Tank Engine, the Fat Controller, Toby and Henry, take a ride on a vintage train pulled by Donald the Black Engine, or enjoy jumping castles, an inflatable slide, face painting, storytelling – and of course photos with Thomas (whose next visit is the weekend of July 14 and 15.)
● Trainworks Great Hall a steam train lovers paradise.
Observer Wines & Liqueurs Melbourne

Waxing lyrical over Bobbie Burns ■ Take vines that are fifty years old and a company that’s made Shiraz from those vines for forty-one consecutive vintages, and you can be pretty-much assured you’re going to get a very rewarding drop indeed – particularly when priced at an enticing $22. Campbells Wines in Victoria’s relatively cool climate Rutherglen have just released their 2010 Bobbie Burns Shiraz – their 41st – and here’s a wine that’s got plenty of richly vibrant blood plum and mulberry fruit on the front palate, and tannins and subtle oak that add structure to the mid palate. Winemaker Colin Campbell says the company aims for the best possible fruit each year, and to follow through with winemaking techniques that enhance that fruit’s natural flavours. “We have been humbled by Bobbie Burns’ continued popularity and relevance among our customers over the past four decades,” he says. “For many ‘Bobbie’ is a great friend, for others a new discovery that demonstrates how great modern Australian Shiraz can be.” And although fruit came off vines 50 years old, the vineyard in fact dates back further to 1870. Enjoy this one with filet mignon glazed with balsamic vinegar and red wine.
One For Lunch ■ Few realise that the Canberra district has been producing wine for some 160 years, with Cabernet Sauvignon doing particularly well there. Shaw Vineyard Estate at 640m above sea level is higher than most vineyards in the region, with warm days and cool nights bringing out the best from the Cabernet Sauvignon grown on this one-time fine-wool producing property. Their ‘Premium Collection’ 2009 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon has lovely fresh cassis and blackcurrant flavours to enjoy now with a winter’s fireside cheese platter, or alternatively put aside for anything up to 20 years. Pay a wellpriced just $25.

Opened by rail-buff volunteers as the NSW Rail Transport Museum in 1975, Trainworks is now managed by Railcorp’s Office of Rail Heritage and run in conjunction with a strong base of still volunteers of the Rail Transport Museum. And a recent $30m refurbishment widened its appeal beyond its traditional base of purely train enthusiasts, to families, schools for educational outings, and to social groups and clubs for fund-raising through a day out with a difference. Sprawling over 5ha (more than 12 acres) the site also embraces Thirlmere’s very beginning from the 1860s as a tent-town for workers on the Sydney-Goulburn Great Southern Railway: there’s still the original railway station opened in 1885, the Station Master’s Cottage built to an American design in 1891 that was Thirlmere’s first brick building, and the Co-Op Shed built around 1908. But most captivating are the locomotives, carriages, freight wagons and railway paraphernalia, with visitors able to meander through numerous restored historic passenger carriages to re-live our rail past, or peer through their windows into the interiors of others too valuable to risk damaging. These latter include the circa-1901 Governor-General’s carriage that’s owned by the Powerhouse Museum and housed at Trainworks, and which is a veritable palace on wheels that would cost over $1m to replace today. By contrast there’s the last of just four-ever prison vans used to transport inmates between prisons around the state from 1915 to 1975, an austere, barred compartment with bareboard seating for 14 male prisoners with a toilet at one end, a room for five warders in the middle, and compartment for eight female prisoners with toilet at the other end. There’s also an interesting Travelling Post Office once used for sorting mail on-the-move to country centres, an unusual little Rail Pay Bus whose bus body was adapted to travel on rail to deliver rail workers’ wages, steam locomotive E18 that was built in 1866 and served a near-100 years, a display explaining how signals and points work – and a funeral cart on which coffins were delivered to onetime funeral trains. Other restored or partly-restored carriages include old Sydney suburban electrics, the 3-car Broken Hill Silver City Comet, sleeping, dining and lounge cars from the one-time allFirst Class Sydney to Melbourne Southern Aurora, once steam-hauled country passenger train carriages, buffet cars – and a so-called ‘dog box’ lavatory car. Amongst goods wagons are an original Arnotts Biscuits van, Shell tanker, grain and coal hoppers, a rail horse box and a guard’s van. And for those whose love is locomotives there are seventeen on static display including Australia’s once most-powerful steam loco, the 260 tonne Garratt, six various class operational steam locos, while the famous 3801 fast express loco can be seen in overhaul in the Roundhouse workshops The Roundhouse also has a 33m turntable that can swing locos onto seven different tracks and is one of only three of its magnitude in NSW.
