Howdy from The Gong
« on: January 29, 2009, 12:28:08 AM »
Wow, this place seems to be kicking along quite nicely!. About time i dived in i reckon :)

Anyway. I'm Rod from Wollongong. I've been into pinball since i was a kid. I love them all, but am really fond of late 70's solid state.

Nice to see some familiar faces, and i hope to be able to contribute :)

Cheers
Rod

 %)% Rod from Wollongong

Lots of love around here for your favorite pin vintage, you should feel right at home.

Do you need the expo train to stop by your place to pick you up?

Rod lives about 20 minutes South, so maybe he can jump on my cart?

BTW Rod - just watch out for Nick (pinniesforme) - he has some serious problems  :lol
