Our Gal – Alison Beasley

21 October, 2015 By editor

IMG_1801
How long have you lived in Canowindra? I’ve been here for 22 years. I came from the Southern Highlands.

What is your favourite thing about Canowindra? I like the community and the friendliness, and I like the heritage – that’s why we have all the photos on the walls at Old Vic Inn.

Where is your favourite place in the world? Other than Canowindra, probably
Paris. I had dinner at the restaurant on the Eiffel Tower for my birthday.

What is your biggest fear? I absolutely hate snakes.

What do you love about your job? Meeting an incredible range of people and the building itself has a great feel – it’s got charm.

If you won the lotto, how would you spend it? I’d go overseas back to France and I’d love to take Graeme to Russia and Scandinavia. I’d also look after the kids and retire.

Who would you love to have dinner with? Bessie Robinson – I would have loved to live in that time.

What is the biggest change you would like to see in the world?I’d love to see
peace; everybody just getting along with everybody.
