Title: Old posts from Aussie Pinheads
Post by: Creech on September 05, 2008, 08:29:22 PM
For those of you familiar with the old Aussie Pinheads forum, I'm going to go through some of the posts there and post on here some of the better suggestions, tips and tricks that were put forward.

If anyone remembers a thread they want to see on here, let me know and I will do my best to retrieve it.

the funny in that will be Nick explaining how he shoved Nuggy aside and fixed it himself

l can see it now

"first l put the key in the door   
then l turned the key .... first one way    then the correct way   and the door opened..... :o :o :o
then l called Nuggy ..."

**REPLACING?**

I f*ckin' invented flux capacitors. Got the patent and everything. So back off the abuse of my IP !  :)

Is this still going to happen??

Would be nice to see some of the old posts / fixes / suggestions that were on that forum. Maybe in a specific section of their own?

To be honest, I think this site has all that old stuff plus heaps more so I don't think we are missing out on anything.

If there's anything specific anyone can remember from there I'm happy to bring it over.

I was never part of the old site, so I have nothing I would like to see here.

Just thought that there may be something worthwhile seeing as Tony was looking into it.

A few EM issues...

A few Resto threads..

Fair enough, no frogs. There must have been some good coffee ones then? Like the one where I invented coffee and became the Barista Barrister???

If there is enough interest in the old Forum, we could enable it for a short time for you guys to have a look around and pick which threads you believe should be here.

The only problem I see with that is most of us won't remember our passwords !
