"I’m a busy farmer but if you happen to be visiting while I am shearing, please come and see how we do it" says Matt.
"As a Mum of three children, I know what a treat it is to be able to take a night off," says Sue
"I am happy to babysit the children if you book with me prior so you can enjoy a romantic dinner for two at one of the nearby restaurants."
"I am a nurse, so the kids will be in safe hands."
