To the left is the living room of the house we built, Bronte Manor at Wuthering Heights which dad runs as a Bed and Breakfast in the beautiful South Australian wine growing district, the Clare Valley, 90 minutes’ from Adelaide.

I made the soft furnishings (and re-pointed and re-grouted the entire baronial living room with my sister when I was 8 months pregnant).

Along with my books and my children  I consider it one of my hugest efforts in life!
