Bookshops which stock Australian Women's Weekly recipe books, delightful magazine-like things with oodles of delicious recipes, some of which require weird and wonderful and unobtainable ingredients like copha, have one called "Cakes and Slices" which has Lamington recipes in it. Bad news is that you need a Lamington pan to bake them in, and it's difficult to find something else which will do. It's somewhere between a roasting tin and a swiss roll tin - roughly. Very specialist cooking shops may have them, or, and for the books, too, try the Australian Shop which is somewhere around Covent Garden.

If you can't find them - and Smiths stock them - I'll post the recipe, but the other cakes are worth a try as well.
