I'm on a t ablet and haven't figured out to copy and post a long web thingy or I would have done it.

I've had better info from my colleagues at work today than from this forum.

Yeah well ... getting salient (non-obvious) information from you - in order to assist you - has been like pulling teeth. You are allowed to write a few detailed sentences, you know - it's not Twitter or an SMS.

Anyway, I made a suggestion way back, and you agreed it was a good one. It's been all downhill since then.

It's not Twitter, but it's still a forum. And I've felt almost trolled here. Telling me to use initiative and find an agent is not good advice when I'm here trying to find an agent from travellers, not Google.

Cool, and thanks for the links. They're really good actually. I'll spend some more time on google and see what comes up.

It's not "trolling" just because people aren't meeting your immediate wants and needs.

Do you really expect a regular responding here to know the physical address of a few travel agents in Melbourne, off the top of their head. Just duck into town and walk along Little Bourke Street or Swanston Street, and you would have practical leads in an hour. What is hard?

No problems and Chinatown on L'Bourke could be good for a feed, maybe even get the lo down from some Triads!

Well. I have 1 available weekday in Melbourne over the next 7 weeks. So there's that. I work remotely Fifo.
If you don't have any positive input please leave the discussion. You're not helping. I appreciate you tried. Thanks.

Haha, gyoza and guns? Sounds good. Realrussia.co.uk got back to me earlier and are offering visa support. I think this is the best I'll get. I've got time though, so I'll keep researching.

You won't get the name of an Australian agent most likely but there are a ton of posts on NEAsia and Eastern Europe branches. You might be able to glean a bit more than the one post I referred you to.
Will also do some trawling through one of the Mongolia Charity rallies and see if brother in law still has their diary available !right have the name of the NZ agent theyuse remotely for Russian visas.

All good practice. The Trans Siberian is the next on his hit list. He's done SEA , China and Tibet and is looking for a bit more excitement. Just a thought. Does the main LP web site have anything in their Destinations etc sections?
