Happy Australia Day!

At Gaslight we're celebrating Australia Day with delicious pavlova, and a free flag for every customer.

As you can see not everyone was taking our national holiday quite as seriously as we did. Helen, (left) a born and bred Kiwi, had trouble mastering her Australia Day hat, but fortunately Liz (an Aussie now living in NZ) had more success!

Happy Australia Day everyone!

Sunday morning

Sunday morning sitting in the sun, having coffee and scones at Gaslight - does it get any better than this?? We don't think so!

The Tour Down Under

Stage 1 of this year's Santos Tour Down Under starts at 11am on Tuesday in Clare and will see the riders head south to Tanunda. They will pass through Penwortham, Saddleworth, Riverton and Kapunda on the way to the Barossa Valley, as part of what should be one of the prettiest legs of the race.

The fun has kicked off in the Clare Valley this weekend with the four day Clare Breakaway Festival and the riders are sure of a warm mid north welcome when they line up to start the race on Tuesday morning.

Gaslight is backing BMC Racing, headed up by Australia's own Cadel Evans. Go Cadel!

Vauxhalls everywhere!

Burra was happy to welcome many of the participants in the 35th National Vauxhall Rally this weekend. The Rally runs from 7th - 14th January so many of these lovely old cars will be seen out and about in the Clare Valley over the next few days.

The cars will be on display on the Clare Oval tomorrow (Sunday 10th January) if you would like to see them up close and have a chat with their proud owners.
