Appreciate all you’ve done for the english learners. I think it is a great contribution to the community!

Hi Rob,

Thanks for the info. However I drove a small camper with cooker and usually used it or just barbeque in camper parks.

Hi Vladimir,

Thanks for your comment. Sounds like a great trip you have planned. For a list of barbeque places in the city centre, try this link. https://www.timeout.com/melbourne/things-to-do/the-best-public-barbecue-spots-in-melbourne.
I think that Braybrook Park might be a good spot to have a barbeque if you are planning to stay in Braybrook. (See this link. https://www.maribyrnong.vic.gov.au/Parks/Braybrook-Park). Coburn is not a Melbourne location – I think you might have the spelling wrong. Perhaps you mean Coburg. If so, then this link may be useful. https://www.moreland.vic.gov.au/events-recreation/parks-and-trails/find-a-park/coburg-lake-reserve/

Alternatively, just find a local park and usually there will be a public barbeque located there. Have fun on your trip around Australia!
Cheers,
Rob

I’ll take a camper and make a curcle around, spending couple days in Melbourn where I suppose to park in Braybrook or Coburn North. Can you advise me a barbeque sites nearby or in the city center?

Hi Alessandra,
Yes, having a barbeque picnic is very common in Australia. Most parks have barbeques and often they are free to use. I am glad that you like the quiz. It’s fun to do a test and it’s interesting to see whether or not you have understood the podcast. Your English is going very well I think. Keep it up.
Cheers from down under,
Rob

Thanks for the podcast! The Ruffey Lake Park seems to be a beautiful place!
I heard that picnic is very common in Australia, and that is there many barbeques over the parks that you can use, just need to put some coins on it.

All want to say that the quiz an the vocabulary section are very helpful, thank you for doing it!

Hugs from Brazil 🙂
