Lady Di's Pies

Great place Sandstone they make you feel very welcome.

Gawd Equinox - going on appearances, she looks like she's been a wharfie prior to her pie shop business - and she looks like she'd shove a pie down your throat on the spot, if you DIDN'T buy one off her! [;-)

I trust her appearances are deceiving, and it's good to hear you can actually buy some edible food in Sandstone that doesn't come out a freezer, and into a microwave or bain marie for 48 hrs.

The Goldfields certainly produces the "characters", and I'll wager she got a story or two to tell about where she's been and what she's done.
I trust she does well - Sandstone is like all W.A. country towns - too few customers, and the few people that do go through, are usually self-sufficient or intent on just fuelling up and high-tailing it, pronto.

Cheers, Ron.

We came across her last year, and yes a real card, and the story she told us about the hoops the council put her through to be able to set up the stall next it the info centre.

And Sandstone what a lovely clean little town.

At first glance I thought "Aunty Jack" ... and it sort of makes sense.

"If you don't buy one of my pies, I'll come over there and rip ya bloody arms orf ... and I will, too ....".

Hope she is there when I next come through Sandstone.

Agree on all counts, Lady Di's Pies are ok, the information centre does "have information" and Sandstone is an interesting and friendly little oasis.

Just be careful where you wave your detector, you can meet up with the not so welcoming character.

Yes a character for sure! Came across her last year doing the same thing with sausages (and her secret spice additive)

We have a small farm side line business (gourmet pork sausages) and so the temptation not to sample was too great......besides that it would have been a brave man to say no to her invitation to purchase some

Had great fun pulling each others tail about sausages and from memory we left her more of ours than we purchased from her

Great to see she is still at it in some way......be it pies this time maybe camel stew next time

We came across her in 2012, when we had a sausage sandwich and coffee. Both we and our travelling companions came down with something a day later, and this was the only time the 4 of us had eaten the same meal.... Looks like she has gone a bit upmarket since then.

Al, reminds me of when the GDEC2012 crew were in Anchorage outside the Town Hall.

We had, wait for it.....

Reindeer sausages in a bun. For real. They were excellent, sorrr Rudolph!

The yummy things you find when you least expect it.

So keep that thought and you and Massie have a Happy Xmas.
