Woohoo!!! I think I count - I'm a naturalised Aussie! Born in London, moved to Wellington at 12, moved out here at just-turned-20. Still have a dodgy South London accent, but living in the outback I'm as ocker as I need for this club, owning a Drizabone and an Akubra!


This picture belongs on the front page of this thread: My Tikal Pochette at Quilpie, over 1,000kms from the sea, hanging out with me whilst doing a standby at Camel Races for work!

Yay! What a great club.

Frankie - I love your pics, LV looks so unique against the Aussie territory!

Hello to all the fellow aussies, If you are from Melbourne - we are having a Melbourne LV meet in October some time, so I will keep this thread updated with details.

Thanks for the invite m1nime. I'm based in Melbourne and it's great to have our own little club here in purse-land. Haven't participated for a little while in this forum. But feel comfortable enough to post here with fellow Aussies.

Thanks for the invite! I'm from the wonderful Sunshine State

I have been admiring LV, but I've been admiring from afar! haha.

I dream of something in azur damier one day, maybe a wallet, they are good value I think. I seem to spend all my money on Chloes though!

Welcome LoVely ladies and thanks for joining tPF's newest and most excLusiVe club!

qwerty234 - I'm from the Sunshine State too and adore Azur. I have the Pochette Wallet (AU$700) and highly recommend it if you're in search of something that has plenty of room, is durable and looks great. Consider yourself enabled!!

m1nime - I just purchased a special bag from a fellow tpfer and it's (hopefully!) arriving tomorrow. So I've been dreaming about that lately!

Paije - whereabouts are you in Adelaide? Are we the only 2 ones from the Festival State? By the way, I've been so busy with work lately so I havn't managed to take those pics. i'll try and do them this weekend for you :)
