Dream a little dream with me


Large house. Surrounded by rolling hills - close to pretty bushland and the seaside.

Features include:

Princess tower


ballroomesque room - easily converted into ballroom


large library



Secret room


twenty-eight beautiful bedrooms


Fantabulous garden


Now, if you think I'm dreaming a bit large here, or seem a leetle selfish
in my extravagance, please understand that, if I had such a dream house (particularly one with twenty-eight beautiful bedrooms) I'd instantly fulfill another long-time dream and turn it into a retreat for women in crisis pregnancies - with facilities for midwives and newborns. Also I'd start up an adoption program for the babies whose mothers aren't able to keep them.


And, just for fun:

Ideal house staff

Mary Poppins - to help me school & raise my seven children
(and look after all the newborns)

Jeeves - steward/administrator
(I know he's a valet, but I want a steward)

Passepartout - butler (ditto...)

Gardener - Sam Gamgee (and family) - to take care of the massive old world garden - complete with pumpkins and roses
