For me work-wise, financial-wise and just plain being realistic-wise there is no chance i could afford to go to Oz without missing out on the summer holiday, Catalan game and numerous other things.
Obviously if i win the lottery i'll be going

I no its not cheap but i've managed to price up 10 days for 950 per person in a 4 star hotel, only 17 miles away from the stadium and close to a train line which connects to the city centre only 5 minutes on train.

Out of interest, has anyone ever applied for a tourist visa?

I just googled it the other day to see what was involved. A simple link for priced entitled 'tourist visa rates' opened up a 39 page pdf. file!

Was a time when a few strategic palms greased would have prevented you're having to go there! :lol:

Yes, we were there in March. The application is pretty straightforward if you find the official government site. Google often promotes 3rd party sites to the top of search results. These make a charge basically for assisting you with the application....

The official government application is FREE.

I know this will sound really cheeky but if someone goes (cough cough Josie :wink:) could they pick my son up a program and a Wigan/Roosters WCC scarf?
