I can't speak highly enough of these shoe's and the service.

I ordered online 2 weeks before christmas, not expecting them to get to me by christmas and was told in the confirmation email due to demand that they would not be there for me before christmas. They got to me with 4 days to spare. I ordered 3 pair for myself and Never took the sexy red sandle's off for the entire summer. I can't go back to wearing my other shoe's now, I feel so constricted in them.
I wanted to order my winter shoe's and summer all together as they have a $100 min for free postage and I got when I signed up to the website a 20% discount code to use whenever I wanted to.

Come Christmas anyway, they had specials on postage and discounts on shoe's so I found latter I didnt need to save my discount for then, but I'll know that now for next time.

It is worth joining their email list as they are always having sale's and you get discount code's all the time along with postage free days. They do have plenty of shops all over australia and have great sale's in them as well so I have been told. So it is worth looking them up, because they aren't just those ugly gardening clogs anymore lol, there is so may line's to choose from, from gardening to workwear. I know I found it hard to pick.

I have always found Sandhurst Road Milkbar & Takeaway to have fresh food in the warming counter each time I go in. It doesn't seem to sit there for very long, is a great temp and not dried up and they have a great selection for those who want to grab and go.

A huge selection of drinks cakes and slice's chip's and your standard snake food's. I had a cappuccino once and was happy with it, not a standout, but not nasty either.

I'm a fan of their vanilla slice, it HUGE and So tasty, I haven't seen this one around bendigo before and go each time I feel like one. They do my fave chicken wings as well and I have always found them to be juicy never dried up as though they have been sitting in the warmer to long. They have a Jacket potatoes ready there for you to grab and go, or they will make you a fresh one of anything if you ask them and there is never a grumpy face in there behind the counter, well I've never seen one, the staff is always friendly with a smile and happy to cook you up anything you ask for fresh.

There's plenty of parking and table's in the sun with umbrellas to the side of the shop.

It is however CASH only, they do have a money machine in store

I finally went to Tony's today, I have been meaning to go for a long time now.

I picked up a menu and bought a take away pasta. The Pizza's I saw looked lovely so I will try one soon as they do deliver to Eaglehawk, a lot don't.
The pasta was really nice,but I thought a little over priced. On the menu it said the dish I chose was made with penne but I like linguini and they were happy to make it with that for me. There was heaps of chicken in it lot's of mushy's and the sauce was really nice... For a bought one, I still like my own better, I find it hard to buy pasta from anywhere so it's not just Tony's.
So for all of the rest of you who haven't tasted my home made pasta sauce it's just fine lol.

There was cake's in the cake cabinet that I am going back again to try, they looked Yummo and I do love a coffee and cake avo

The Decor in the National was a little old and not the best, but its a table to sit at, and a chair to sit on.

The food was fantastic, I had a chicken parma with mushroom sauce that was SO yum with heaps of fresh Mushy's fresh side salad with homemade chip's, it was a HUGE serve, I didn't think I was going to get through it, but I couldn't leave it as it was so tasty.
My partner had the Chicken and avocado fettuccine, again a Huge serve with fresh parmesan cheese on top, he thoroughly enjoyed every bite.

On the day there was a large group of bikers stopped in for lunch and didn't ring ahead, the poor girl on the counter was so flustered but handled herself really well and they were such a group of happy chappy's. They ran out of food as not that many people on a sunday normally call in, so the menu changed a little on the special's board. But everything turned out fine and all were happy.

They served a pizza here as well that looked amazing, the people on the next table to us had one they said the crust was cooked to perfection so crispy, I could hear them crunching with it and wanted to get one to take home. We were going to then forgot. But if we are that way again we will..

What a beautiful little town was Clunes, you could feel the history in the town it had a great old world feel to it. We had a great day out for the day trip.

So many of my old Fave's in here, the lollie shop with such a weird name. They are a little expensive, but you will pay more for imported lollie's and the old fashioned boiled sort.

There is something for everyone in here, and I did love to have a good poke around. I was lucky on the day and found a barrel of toffee's that were out of date and had a great price on them, so I did go overboard and bought the lot as they were SO cheap. There are so many in here I remember from when I was a little girl and wanted to buy one of each of them for my grandkids. What fun going through a lollie shop it brings out the child in us all.

The gentleman serving though I felt really should have put a bit of a smile on his face, he looked so bored and I felt that, just that changed the atmosphere in there a little. I felt it, so I think kids would as well.

I have been looking for some time to find someone who would take a look at my irobot vacuum but no one would. I emailed the company and they told me to ring, yes ring an overseas supplier to talk to about fixing it.

I took it to Andrew in the Vacuum Cleaner Shop and he went out of his way to fix it for me as there is not anyone in Bendigo who can and the shop I bought it virtually said, "good luck with that!" Not in the least bit helpful.

Andrew searched the internet finding a blog and someone in melbourne who stocked parts for it. He was very friendly and helpful fixing it within a matter of day's once he had the part's. He also didn't charge the earth so for this I was very greatful.

We dropped in just for coffee and cake on a sunday and found it to be delightful.

The waitress on the day gave great service. We were very happy with the coffee and the cake's we split and shared between us, the lemon tart was full of lemon flavour and the baked cheesecake was nice and creamy.

I wanted to see the pasta menu, so will be returning for that one day.

It was a disappointing sunday lunch here today and I felt the meals were over price's for reheated food.
I had the roast of the day that was Lamb, The chef made his own mint jelly that was lovely, but nothing took away the taste of reheated roast lamb.
Chicken Schnitzel my partner had looked to be ok, but he said it lacked flavour and was So hot in it's center the crumb coating was soggy and also felt it had been microwaved. The meals came out so fast, I didn't feel they could have been cooked in that amount of time.

There is on sundays a live band outside in the beer garden that was set out really nicely, inside had white tablecloths and black chair's, I thought everything looked lovely.
Upon entering we were asked if we had booked, so I guess the place is very popular.

So maybe we caught the chef on a bad day?

I took my husband here for his 50th birthday, we didn't have a booking, but did ring to see if there was an available table at 6 for dinner latter in the evening. We dressed for Dinner when other's were in jean's, yet we were looked up and down?

I found them to be just a little snobbish when we got there. I didn't see there would have been a problem with the way I rang earlier but was told I should have booked ahead. I felt if there was no room, they could have said so and not have made us feel uncomfortable.

We did wait for while for the food to come, I didn't think there was much on the plate. We took pizza back to our unit when we left.

Both of my Daughter's have tattoos and piercings and here is the only place they will go.
They get great service also after care service if there is a problem. It is always clean.

They also have a nice range of jewelry here, I bought a gold Diamond nose stud for one of my daughter's that has never changed in color, as some do.
