AND HERE'S WHAT
OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT IT:
" Just wanted to say
thanks for a great time at the Aussie game when I was in Melbourne.
I had a great time.
I was over in Melbourne
on business by myself and I'm a huge American football fan.
I love to try new things so I thought it would be fun to take in
some of the local sporting events. I thought the idea of going
with someone that new the rules and the game itself was a great
concept. I didn't hesitate! It was the highlight of
my trip and I would recommend it to anyone in Australia or traveling
to Melbourne.
Anthony was a great host and we had a great time. Once back
in the States, I kept up with the games through the internet. Thanks
again for the great time.
Michael Paul" October 2005

story from 1/7/04 here, when we took Catriona Rowntree
