Newbie from Perth
« on: January 31, 2009, 09:15:52 PM »
Hi everyone  Thanks to Ian (ballywannabe) for introducing me to this fantastic sight.Ive had an interest in pinball since my teens in the 70s hence my collection of 70s pins (kiss playboy startrek supersonic centigrade 37 jacks open and jet spin). I bought my first pin about 8 years ago and the collection slowly  kept growing. I dabble  in a bit of  cabinet restoration and have restored around 20 cabs to date I'm no expert but they seem to turn out OK.Looking forward to being part of the forum community. Cheers Les.

Welcome to AP and you have a real nice lineup of pins!

Are you the same Les that used to live in Sydney?
