If you know anybody around your area that uses Couriers Please just pay them for the coupons and ask them to send it, i use them to send my boxes / parcels, etc. all over Australia. Normally within 2-3 days for Melbourne to Sydney.  Peter.

Are you anywhere near the Granville area as i can get it sent from there.

Don`t worry about those things in Ballarat, there is a good reason the Nimmo now rides a Yamaha. ;)
