Made in Australia
Printed here, so it arrives in days.
Paper Chain books for Australian addresses are printed in Australia and sent by parcel post. Melbourne and Geelong tend to see them first; Perth and Darwin take longer, as everything does.
The idea is simple. Nan doesn't need another photo sent to a phone she can't find. She needs a book on the coffee table. You send one link to the family, everyone adds a few photos and a line or two, and we print it in large type and post it to her.
It works whether the family is in the next suburb or three time zones apart. Reminders go out on their own until everyone has added something, so you're not the one chasing your brother.
