Default Only found in America!!!!

I've just visited their website http://www.redhatsociety.com/ and found
out that they have chapters in over 25 countries! And altough I've never
seen them in the Netherlands there should be 43 chapters in my country.
John, Australia is in there with 157 chapters, 4 of them in Brisbane. So
what IS going on in Brisbane then???

To Reka: It is a pity, but there is no group in Italy, nor in Austria. I
guess the nearest for you would be Geneve in Switzerland. But you could
always start one yourself when you are old enough!

Greets, Niek

Hey, John! Next you'll be bringing out that old chestnut about
Queensland -
"Ladies & gentlemen, we are about to land in Brisbane. Please set

your watches
back one hour, and your calendars back 100 years".

At the risk of alienating any Tasmanians reading this group, they are a bit

What a wonderful group - never seen this anywhere else in the world. For
non USA readers, these women regularly get together to visit gardens,
museums etc and all dress up in red and purple. Magnificent spectacle
and a great way to bond and support each other.

Can't see this catching on in Australia though.

I do know of a group in Tasmania, so there must be a few in Australia as
well!
