Fresh meat in Canberra
« on: December 26, 2013, 10:22:45 PM »
Hey Pin Freaks, my name is Andrew, friends call me Zed and I've just git my first pinnie thanks to Dan of Riverina pinball.

I got the bug at 10 years old- that's 36 years back. I can still remember playing Sky High on my way to school in primary school- 10c a game or 20c for three games.

I'm looking forward to making some new friends and sharing some social times with fellow players.
For those in Vice City (Canberra) get in touch I ya like n we can share some games.

I'm an electronics tech working at ANU so may be able to offer some tech help to locals if time permits.
Time is sometimes in short supply as I work as well as playing in and managing an eight piece funk band but pinball is a great distraction from the ordinary.

Ok nuff said, let the games begin!

It was a pleasure to meet you today Zed and I really enjoyed playing your JD. Love the big long shots (even with the sloppy flippers  :lol) Trust you will be stopping by here during the week for a few games.

Yeah it was real good to share a few games.

Too right I'm coming over to play ya Star Trek!

Thanks for the tech tips too. I've been doing my research and have most of an order ready to go.
Some nice upgrades and maintenance is coming up real soon.

So where's all the other Players in Vice City hangin? I guess maybe like most of the rest of Canberra they're already at the coast!

Let's get a pinball circuit going!
