AA Around the World

AN ALCOHOLIC OF MONTHS' STANDING - News, comments and letters from and about AA's worldwide outposts and centers--gleaned from letters to the Grapevine and the General Service Office, and from the "AA Exchange Bulletin," published by GSO.

BILL is my name and I reside in Tasmania, Australia, I am an alcoholic of about two months standing, but I have enjoyed every second of it, and I do hope that there will be a lot more of enjoyment for me since joining up with AA. That is why, Sir, that I am asking you if you could send me the addresses say of at least two very isolated loners that I could write to.* I feel quite sure, Sir, that they would be only too pleased to get a letter from here in Australia. And I would be only too pleased to keep in touch with them and to be able to tell them what I can about Tasmania, Australia.
