Title: Re: hello to all
Post by: v8racefan on June 16, 2009, 10:35:53 PM: Hi mike,

Thanks for the airport offer, but my wife's parents are picking us up as they live in upper riccarton which is close to the airport. I have played most of the pins in your collection, it must be cold over there at the moment sub zero temps??

Yes november is warmer, looking foward to our 3 week holiday, viewing some nz pinball collections and if time/finances permits arranging shipping of my pinball/arcade machines out to queensland.
