HI Mark,

I'm very glad to see the day was a huge success for you and your team.   I was really looking forward to going and catching up with the rest of the AP crew there too.

I'm planning on popping down tues / wed (depending on work) and I'll pass my donation to you which I was intending to do on Sat..

Hi all, Yes a great result all round i would have to say.   We raised much needed funds for a worthy cause,
everyone had a great time and a good feed. #*#

Great turnout, thanks to all of you that were able to attend and also those who donated in their absence.

This was my second fund-raising get together in the last 2 days, (I knew spending $130 in raffle tickets between
the 2 events would have to mean so good karma coming my way!!!!  $#$ )

Great to put faces to names and talk pinnies with people that really enjoy it.

Once again thanks to everyone who contributed towards a great event, hope to see you all again for a meet sometime soon.......

(I vote next weekend,,,    at least i know we've got enough machines ready!!!! !*!)

Congrats to all at Childs for putting this event on, what a great cause.

Sorry I couldnt be there bit was on Gold Coast holidaying with family, returned last night. Wanted to introduce myself to many of you.  That will have to wait till Mark has a meet.

Looks like a great time was had by all, any more pics Mark?

Well done again to Childs and to all the Aussie Pinball members who attended.
