Hi guys, Well the move on Sunday went well, i wanted to get a few more photos, but unfortunately these few are all i got time to get  @.@

Just a few pics of the first few games being loaded up. Initially they had told me that the trucks tail lift wasnt working.. but after i pestered them they decided to try it... well luck was on my side as it worked fine  #*# as i wasnt looking forward to lifting pinball cabinets about 5 feet or so high to get them in the truck... especially as Roller Disco being a wide body is SOOOO F@#kn HEAVY!!!! soon as they moved Roller Disco on the trolley (the first one we moved) they found out what i meant  *%* *%*

Anyhow it wasnt too long before we had my remaining eleven cabs and four backboxes loaded up, padded and secured. They were very careful with my precious machines, as Norm knew how valuable they are to me. I didnt bother bubble wrapping the unrestored machines, but my restored ones got two layers of bubble wrap, plus a layer of shrink wrap (found some at Bunnings the day before they were moved out).

I wish i could have got a pic of all the machines in the truck but i forgot to get one  @.@ Anyway my furniture was packed next, after a couple of hours (including a coffee break) everything was packed. My car was jam packed as well, four backboxes, as well as a shitload of boxes and anything i could fit in. In the end i removed a few things from the car, including one backbox, to help save wear n tear on the car as the suspension was sitting pretty low in the arse end!!!! the backboxes in the car had backglasses still installed hence why they were in the car (safer for them than in the truck).
