Title: New Aussie Member
Post by: wangers on January 21, 2009, 08:44:20 AM

Just thought I would introduce myself.

My name is Wayne, I am from Melbourne but am originally from Echuca which I guess sparked my interest in model Paddlesteamers. Looking for info and tips on how to get started on building my first one.

Cheers

Wayne

Wayne,
          I have sent an email to you offline about the P.S. Pevensey. Try not to push the Aussie line too much as some of the Foreigners especially in England seem to get worried by our numbers .One thing though that you must tell us is why would you leave Echuca.

Hi all,

I grew up in Echuca , Moama actually and then moved when I went to uni, met my wife and have stayed in Melbourne. Just saw somebody else said that Aussie thing. I thought it might have been good to show where I was from. :)

p.s. We have to take our share of Kiwi jokes too.
