Doctor's Fawn's origins
Moderator: Spectrum Strike Force
There IS a Yalumba, in South Australia - and it's a well known winery! No doubt there's probably a large community based around the company which has been a family owned concern for 150 years, but...
Dare I suggest it might have been a favourite drop of one of people who wrote up his biography?

I know someone who actually found wine from the Yalumba estate recently - and bought some - as you would... but I would suggest that in the 1960's it would have been a very rare commodity indeed!
Therefore anyone using that as location for Fawn's birthplace must have had knowledge of Australia.... or so it seems?

I wasn't thinking solely along the lines someone in the UK must have ordered wine shipped from Oz - they could just as easily have been from Aust, visited Aust, bought a bottle from a shop ...or received a bottle for Christmas. The unusual choice of origin for the good Doctor just suggested to me a knowledge about Yalumba Winery - especially as it's not a city that you could just look up in an Aust atlas etc and chose at random. You'd have thought a place more well known (Sydney, Melbourne etc) might have been chosen instead.
Does anyone know who actually wrote the bios?
