Howdy
« on: October 18, 2012, 03:21:00 PM »
Hello everyone!!   

Been reading heaps on these forums and thought I should finally say hi.
I'm Ghali (A.K.A Christian) and i have an out of control pinball problem, had it for years.  I am a loyal devotee of my Overlord Gorgar.

About me:   My "dayjob" is driving suburban trains around Melbourne.   My spare time is occupied by either, playing / maintaining pins (22 of em!),  playing/recording/listening to music in my studio or fixing peoples broken shit!

Current personal project is a Gorgar restoration.  In fact, tomorrow, the playfield is going down to Tim @ HRP,  just finished a phone conversation with him - TOP DUDE!  (Hi Tim)  ^^^

I could crap on heaps more, but I will spare you.    Fantastic community you guys have here.

 
VUK you!
