Tea For Two (Hawthorne & Bulimba)

We took ourselves off to Hawthorne Park in Brisbane's east, and set up the card table in the location that inspired the Bluey episode Cafe.Keen Bluey observers may also recognise the park from Season 1's Wagon Ride episode.Early in 'Cafe' Bandit can be heard saying to Fido that "they're a pain to maintain", and we reckon that could be a reference to the Heeler's Queenslander house - remember that bit from Hammerbarn where the gutter falls down!So we spoke to one of Queensland's most awarded heritage architects, Andrew Ladlay for a bit of Queenslander 101, and discover a bit more about this iconic Brisbane house design.And when your friend drops a bombshell and lets you know that her daughter was the star of 'Cafe', you just have to find out a bit more about what it's like lending your voice to the Bluey-verse. NB - keeping with Ludo Studios tradition of not crediting the child actors on the show, we have not identified her - we'll just call her Annie.We'll also discover what there is to get up to in the beautiful riverside suburbs of Hawthorne and Bulimba.Bluey's Brisbane is the podcast that explores the real life world of your favourite Heeler family.Hosted by Justin Rouillon and Lou Bromley - follow us on Facebook and Instagram - @blueysbrisbane
