Cockington Green<\/a>, originally uploaded by Larelle_M_R<\/a>.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n

I thought that when there’s not much doing and I’m looking for a topic to post on my blog, I’d pick a photo from Flickr (where this particular post is being written from) and talk about. Give a background behind the photo. What happened on the day, etc. <\/p>\n

This photo was taken in April 2002 (can’t remember the specific date). Em and I had returned to Australia for a holiday. I’d been very ill leading up to our departure but I wasn’t going to be put off from going home. I had been diagnosed with a chest infection by my doctor here in the UK.<\/p>\n

Once in Australia, I got progressively worse. I’d have coughing fits and wouldn’t be able to breathe. We’d been in Oz about 3 or 4 days when I had a coughing fit in my mum’s kitchen. I couldn’t breathe and then lost consciousness and passed out on her floor. When I came round it was apparent I needed to go to the doctors again. <\/p>\n

I saw my mums doctor and he diagnosed Whooping Cough. It was confirmed with a blood test. I was given strong anti-biotics and was given asthma medication to help my breathing. <\/p>\n

Towards the end of our stay, even though I was by no means 100% better, we decided to have a few days in Canberra and to take mum with us. <\/p>\n

On our last day in Canberra we decided to go to Cockington Green, a model village based on a village in the UK called Cockington, near Torquay in Devon. <\/p>\n

The picture is of myself and my mum leaving the entrance to the model village. I’m carrying a souvenir mug in the plastic bag. Mum is to the left of me. <\/p>\n

It was a lovely little place and it was akin to being able to take my mum on a tour of England. It was really nice. <\/p>\n

If anyone reading the post has any plans of visiting Canberra, I highly recommend going to Cockington Green.<\/p>\n
