Cob: Another Australian Question

[McCluskey]

We live in Rural Victoria, Australia and really love the idea and look of
Cob that we have so far found on the Net.
Are there any other Cobbers in Australia?
Is there a workshop in Australia?
In Victoria the weather, at the moment, is Very dry (I mean Drought), would
this effect the Cob walls, ie - drying out or cracking.

Thanks
