Hi Rob - this offer still stands. Unfortunately, the cost of postage has increased dramatically since 1989. Are you still ok to cover this?
We can organise some Fosters to be left in the fridge, however, we cannot agree to keep
@kylieminogue
off the stage. It's a package deal.
From the moment the winning design was announced and in the many years since, the Sydney Opera House has stirred emotions and ignited debate.
This extraordinary building is loved by people around the world, and we appreciate all the messages we have received.
Happy New Year 🎉🥳💥🥂
Wishing you and yours a happy, prosperous and safe 2019.
