An Australian couple won a $2.7 million home as part of a TV show, according to multiple reports.But they accused the original owner of removing luxury items including a treadmill and wine fridge.The owner said the items were added for staging purposes and were not listed in the giveaway.A couple who won a $2.7 million home say they are furious because it has been stripped of decorative and luxury items, according to multiple reports.Kevin and Andrea Griffin won the multimillion-dollar home in Gisborne, a town close to Melbourne, Australia, as part of a reality TV show called "The Block," MailOnline reported.The original owner of the house was Melbourne businessman Adrian Portelli who announced last year that he would raffle it off as a prize through his online business LMCT+.But after arriving in the house, the couple accused Portelli of removing more than $64,800 worth of goods from the home, which included a wine fridge, a meat smoker, a treadmill, and luxury kitchen appliances, MailOnline reported.Security footage, obtained by MailOnline, appears to show Portelli and his team carrying some of these items out of the home."We were just like, what the hell?" Andrea Griffin told the Herald Sun. "Why has he done this?"The Griffins are creating a website detailing their account, entitled "Our LMCT nightmare," according to MailOnline.Portelli clapped back at their accusations, saying that the items "weren't part of the giveaway," the report said."It was just part of the show, it wasn't in our T's and C's," he added. "Our T's and C's say this is a fully-furnished house, which is what we delivered on."Portelli said that it is "up to me" to decide what to do with the items."Wherever I want to use them personally or I want to use them to stage future giveaway houses, who bloody cares," he said.He has since announced a $1 giveaway for all the items that were removed from the house.Portelli and the Griffins did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.LMCT+, which Portelli founded in 2018, is best known for its monthly member giveaways of luxury cars, houses, and cash prizes. Most of the giveaways are posted on social media.The couple had been paying a $20 per month membership with LMCT+ for over a year before they won the home through a giveaway, reports claim.The Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission (VGCCC) and South Australia's Consumer and Business Services (CBS) said earlier this week that LMCT+ is under investigation following complaints made about the company.It is unclear whether the complaints are related to the claims made by the Griffin couple.Read the original article on Insider

Race-by-race guide and tips for Canterbury Park on Wednesday

How to play it: California Zimbol to WIN. Race 2 2YO COLTS & GELDINGS MAIDEN HCP (1200m) Gary Portelli trained 2. Disrupter will improve sharply here second up off the back of a very good run at Randwick over 1200m where he was only run down late by the talented Reloaded. Staying at the 1200m here suits and jockey James McDonald should be able to cross and find a nice position handy to the speed in a race that lacks early pace. Dangers: John OShea trained 11. Twentyfour Carat got along way back over 1200m last start at Randwick where he was hampered for room at the top of the straight but once he got out late he recorded some good late sectionals, he will be the one trying to finish over the top of them late. Snitzel colt 4. Discharged will benefit from the debut run where he jumped well to sit on a hot pace finishing only a length back from Disruptor, with general improvement from that run should be able to run out a strong 1200m. How to play it: Disruptor to WIN. Race 3 3YO MAIDEN HCP (1250m): Very competitive maiden handicap for the 3yos here and very hard to split the first five in the market, have settled on the the Mark Newnham trained 2. Knowitall Jack off two good trials. The gelding was impressive at his latest trial at Randwick where he settled just off the pace and cruised to the line under a tight hold over 1045m, James McDonald sticks after riding in that trial and gets a beautiful run behind the speed from barrier 3. Dangers: Ron Quinton trained 5. Betty Blooms was very good over 1300m on debut in October last year and has been given a light trial leading in, looks the likely leader on a track that will suit those handy to the speed. 1. England has shown potential without breaking through for a win and resumes off a nice trial at Randwick over 1045m. Godolphin trained 4.Sedgemoor is first up off a very nice trial win at Randwick and will be right up on the pace from the wide draw. How to play it: Knowitall Jack to WIN. Race 4 3YO+ BM70 HCP (1550m): The lightly raced 2. Julian Rock for Goulburn based trainer Jean Dubois has been very good at its two Australian starts and looks to peak here, last start sat outside a very fast pace over 1550m at Randwick and fought on very well to the line on the worst part of the track. Stays at the 1550m which is ideal and looks the only on pace runner which will allow jockey Jean Van Overmeire to run the race to suit. Dangers: Kris Lees trained mare 6. Waruna showed sharp improvement second up at Randwick over 1400m sitting back and charging home late, the step up in distance suits and looks to peak here third up. How to play it: Julian Rock to WIN. Race 5 3YO+ BM70 (1900m): James McDonald takes the ride on the Chris Waller trained 8. Welsh Legend, the filly was tested at Group 3 level in the Adrian Knox Stakes over 2000m and was only 1.3 lengths off the winner. She has been given a trial since that run leading into this and if the filly can find a nice position midfield off the rail she will be fighting out the finish. Dangers: The Waterhouse & Bott trained 2. Wolfe was unlucky last start jumping badly and having to do a lot of work in the run over 1400m and was brave to the line, if the gelding can jump cleanly here he will be hard to run down. The lightly raced 14. Wild Impact for trainer John Thompson could be a big improver here at nice odds off the back of a very good run at Randwick over 1600m, out to 1900m suits and gets a great run behind the speed from barrier 4. How to play it: Welsh Legend to WIN. Race 6 3YO+ BM74 HCP (1250m): Very competitive race with many chances in a race with plenty of early pace, have settled on the Snowden trained 6. Charretera coming off a nice win at Randwick over 1200m showing a quick turn of foot to put them away. With the predicted very fast early speed the gelding gets a nice sit just off them. Dangers: 5. Rockin Ruga won well first up at Kembla leading and giving nothing else a chance and a repeat performance will see it fighting out the finish. 4. Kolding returned a winner first up after being gelded and will be sitting back and with some luck from the inside barrier should be storming home late. How to play it: Charretera to WIN. Race 7 3YO+ BM70 HCP (1100m): Filly 9. Gododdin returns for the first time to the races as a 3YO after showing city class potential as a 2YO, looks ready to go here off the back of a quiet trial behind Nature Strip over 1045m at Randwick, has great gate speed and should be right up on the pace from the inside barrier. Dangers: Main danger looks the stablemate 7. Medovina, first up was flashing home over 1150m at Randwick off a moderate pace, back to 1100m is a slight query but if the mare isnt too far off them in what looks a solid run race she will be rattling home. How to play it: Medovina to WIN. Tips supplied by Racing NSW. Full form and race replays available at racingnsw.com.au.

Deb Bibby first encountered this family home as a neighbour, as she used to live next door! At the time, she explains ‘it was an ugly duckling covered in plastic mock bricks.’

The property was built in 1926 by Sir Arthur Alfred Clements Cocks, and has only have four owners – clearly once people move in, they don’t want to leave. This is certainly true for Deb, who describes ‘we walked in and fell in love. Kaboom!’

While Deb immediately removed those ‘ugly duckling’ bricks to reveal Jarrah boards wrapped around the entire home – further renovations to the house took a little longer. She explains ‘an architect friend told me to live it a year before renovating… we ended up living in it for 20 years before we renovated!’

After well-and-truly getting to know the feel of the home and appreciate its rich history, the house underwent a major overhaul four years ago. Deb explains ‘the house was lifted completely intact (with all of its furniture) 1.2 metres into the air, and we built a bedroom and bathroom underneath!

In addition to this elevating experience, a garage was rebuilt in the original 1926 location, and a studio was designed to match the materials and craftsmanship of the historic home. Deb describes ‘the new studio connects to the house via the deck, which now creates a beautiful courtyard feel.’

Inside, the home has a timeless sensibility, styled with a delightful mish-mash of eclectic artwork, antiques and classic design pieces, collected over a lifetime. The palette here is muted and primarily neutral, with tiny pops of green, dirty pink and orange adding moments of intrigue to a backdrop of Dulux Natural White. For Deb, favourite pieces include artwork and objects collected on her travels – such as the small green landscape painting by Jessica Falstein above the master bed, which was the first piece of art Deb purchased when visiting New York in her 20s.

This divine family home provides an inspiring and stimulating environment for Deb and her equally creative son, Jack. She enthuses ‘I swear being here makes you creative, I think it’s the light and being up in the trees – nature literally blows into the living room, and the birds are deafening.’
