Myella Farm Stay
Sue: Spent 2 days/1 night at this working farm where you do all sorts of activities and generally help the owners with their daily chores.
Started the day horse riding and I get a very scary horse that knew he was the boss of me! He even bit another horse whilst we standing looking at some kangaroos skipping around the many acres of land they have. I thought I had mastered horse riding after my last experience, but not at all, I was glad to get back on terra firmer!
We had to wear these very attractive farm clothes too which made us all look like convicts, hence the very attractive orange shirt you can see! Their selection was a cross between Oxfam and a bad taste fancy dress party! Hilarious!
Also had to cook all of our meals on this stove in the ground, it was hard work even to make a brew! It took ages to even cook a cheese toastie, give me a breville grill any day!
Later on the day I went on a 4 Wheel Drive throwing bails of hay off the back of the ute to their 40 horses on the land and then the best job on the farm was feeding the smallest kangaroo I have seen, he climbed into a little peg bag and suckled on a bottle, just like a baby...so cute!See I do have some maternal instincts somewhere!
At night we watched the sunset with the owners home brew beer.
Next day was an early start milking the cows, it was easier than I thought to get the milk, but I would have been there all day just to get a pint of it! Tasted the warm milk too...cant get any fresher than that...hot off the press indeed!
