Hi
« on: October 31, 2012, 06:56:18 PM »
Hello everyone, thought I'd take a second to introduce myself. My name is Ben and I live in Point cook Melbourne. I am growing a greater appreciation for pinball since initially getting into arcade machines. I guess when I was a kid I would always lean towards arcades as I could milk a good half hour out of an arcade for 40 cents, pinball on the other hand would mercilessly gobble my cash in no time. Good old days at Flashback in Swanston Street, sometimes mix it up with a little 10/4 action. Anywho, got a CTFBL a couple of years ago and relised the magnificent cereberal nature that is the Pin, instantly a convert. I only have 3 at the moment, TZ, CFTBL and LW3 however am always looking to add whenever the wifes guard is down. I'm looking at another 5 pins coming early next year also got an LAI gauntlet and star wars cockpit awaiting resussitation when I get a chance. I love talking playing pins with mates and a beer or two and love talking to others with a similar bug. I'm not much for posting, more of the silent bob type online but will talk til your ears bleed on the phone, jeff AKA pinballheaven can testify.
Look forward to lurking in the forums, will have to post some inane comments to get me to 20 so I can see the for sale threads.
Nice to meet y'all
Ben
