ed_govhouse22.pdfAs one who has been to Government House on many occasions through the Australian Asian Association of SA, Victoria League for Commonwealth Friendship and the Council for International Students SA ( CISSA), I decided an article needed to be written ( Collectables Magazine)partly to counter those in the media ( REX JORY in particular) who constantly harp about how it is underused etc etc — a similar article with a different focus was also published in the Adelaide Review — This involved several interviews with Penny Stratmann, the Secretary to the Governor as well as with Anthony Hurl, Tusmore Antiques re the furnishings  and heritage of Govt House. The Governor of the time, Marjorie Jackson-Nelson AO CVO MBE also met me officially and unofficially during and after the process — and permission was given for me to take the photographs personally.
