Title: hi all new to site
Post by: yourdreamin on October 19, 2009, 09:34:08 PM
hi guys new to site i'm simon from shellharbour i'm sure i have meet a few of you during my time but look forward to meeting more, recommended by millsy very big thanks to him as he is helping out on my "surfer", a bit about me i have been buying and selling pins for over 10 yrs but only have 1 (surfer)in the collection at the moment + a tiato 60 in1 cocktail for the kids + a rockola bubbler jukebox for the wife,i have had modern ones from guns and roses to twilight zone(dont know what the fuss is about not my favorite) to late 70 em's. my favorite's i would say would be the late 70's to early 80's(i still remember being a kid at the local skating rink in awr of paragon and the art work as i was a big fan of panel vans with murals at the time) they also remind me of tagging along behind my brother to jack's and flashback arcade's in wollongong and racing to the local fish and chip shop after school to hang out ( if only $2 lasted as long now as it did back then)  enough reminising i'm sure there are alot of you out there who have the same type of stories i may get to share with over time.
cheers simon
