Any antipodeans?

#1
Either we have no antipodeans here, or no-one reads this far down the lists of forums.

I'm in New Zealand and Australia regularly (currently). Any fellow kiwi players here with stories to share? Or Aussie players?

A thread with no meat is like a girl with no b**bs.

If you read -"The Pro's Guide to Spanish 21 and Australian Pontoon" by Katarina Walker -- you'll come to understand that the Pontoon game available Down Under is a much better game than the Blackjack available there.

This is a private printing.
It is brilliantly written,
You will NEVER see this in a bookstore.
