here I am
« on: January 20, 2011, 10:17:58 PM »
Howdy team,
I'm new to the group so I thought I would say hello.  In my younger years I was keen collector, I had 14 machines at one point.  Unfortunately through divorces, downsizings etc. I ended up with no pinnies to my name.  I have just bought my first EM machine in 15 years.  In the past I have had  a few good machines, Gorgar, Surf Champ, Centigrade 37, Magic,  Liberty Berll.  I guess I'm getting my past back.  Now have no ex to make me sell these boxes that take up space!  I'm lucky my partner loves art (playfieid & cabinet)  so we are looking to buy and restore another round of machines.  Ultimate goal is to build a machine from scratch.

WOO HOO!

Welcome.

Lots of great blokes on here.

There is a "Sunday Questionaire" where u can fill out a great question/answer page about your pinball history. Its alot of fun and alot of the new guys do it and we can all get to know u better. Have a look at some of the previous ones as they are a great read.

Email Nino (Strangeways) or Nick (Pinnies4me) and get put on the list to be next.
