Sydney – Melbourne – Bimbadgen
Leaked news from one of the Oz fans of THIS! SM confirmed (it would seem) for A Day On The Green at the Rochford Wines estate in Victoria for November, 2020. So, it would seem I might be spending my 50th birthday down there? Or at least travelling down there shortly after the big FIVE-O….
That is the question. It is many a SM fan’s holy grail, to go to Taormina for a stay at Villa Angela. I was mulling over the idea again tonight. Looking at what’s available at the hotel and checking plane fares from Luton to Catania around my birthday. The idea of spending my 49th birthday…
