I've been unable to do order fulfillment for a couple of months after 
surgery (couldn't drive to the post office), so your order was never 
sent, but I've regained most of my capability in the last week (with 
some limits).

I have your order and another one to send out, ideally this week, and 
could send it to either the stated address or a new address, whichever 
you prefer.  I think most people have gotten their international book 
orders in around 1-2 weeks, based on their reports back to us, but I 
have no such time reports from people in Australia.

If sending it immediately will make it to the current address, I'll do 
my best to get it out immediately.  Or give me a target date after which 
it should go to the new address, and I will delay if needed to make sure 
it gets there instead.

There is an IRC channel  #Lojban where many people gather for lojban 
text conversation.  There are spoken Lojban conversations using 
"Mumble".  For simple questions and answers, most people use the mailing 
lists (based on Google groups).  There is a general Lojban List and a 
Lojban Beginners List.

There are a few Lojbanists located in Australia, including one of our 
most fluent speakers, Nick Nicolas, who lives in Melbourne.  But I don't 
know that there are any local gatherings (and Nick has been rather 
inactive of late).
