scarlet, ive been looking for some likeminded theatresports people for a long time! last time i competed was in the regional james ann theatresports challenge in high school, 2 years back. should get together and hatch some evil plots over a cup of coffee and a plate of puppies.Scarlet wrote:I do theatresports...see www.impromelbourne.com.au .....though its been a while..and I'm a great cook...well a chef anyway, so I guess its also my job ....I used to be a cocktail bartender, and know some mean recipes (you can still buy a 'nasty martini' at Polly on Brunswick street).... I write.. look up on Myspace annanee, and see my blog for my poem challenges..... the last one was a fairy tale about two lesbians, a Grace jones, and Sleepy the dwarven assassin......Oh, and I eat puppies

Other hobbies... I collect old Apple computer equipment... and a few other antique microcomputers such as the BBC Acorn, C64 and whatever, and vintage audio equipment such as tube radios, turntables, amps etc...
You could say I am a nerd! 🤓
I'm fond of old british cars too... particularly minis and old Morris Commercials... but unfortunately I dont have any right now (altho I found a nice Morris J2 at a wrecker that I wouldnt mind getting my hands on 👍).

I'm fairly new to the world of VeeDubs, but I'm actually having a ball building my 61 Baja. Can't wait to actually drive it! I get to race my radio controlled Baja every Friday nite tho!
Other than that I'm usually working on my Mazda RX7, or my Mazda minitruck. I love downhill mountain bikes, music and I used to draw a fair bit.
I have a fairly big Die-cast Car collection too. a few Volkswagens, and Mazdas, and DUB models.
And I'm into body piercing and tattoo's :bounce

so i'll have all my cycling whims taken care of.
The VW has taken a back-seat to my other hobbies atm (the bug being 100kms away doesnt help much)
Lurve the B&W pics....actually they all look good!!! Especially the ones of you😘o
No real hobby as such apart from VW's but i like to collect "gadgets" and electronics....have a nice record/gramaphone collection from the 1900's but have not played them (about 120 odd) they probably sound like crap.Looking after kids takes up any time i would have had spare....

G'day,
Other than VWs (which has taken up most of my hobby time for 40+ years), I like building stuff from other peoples rubbish, and have built a couple of one-off custom 4x4s.
I like the challange of proven people wrong when they say "it can't be done", gives me a great deal of satisfaction.
Will scan in some pics when the scanner is going again.
Cheers, Ian.

fekkinell... you've been on my deviantwatch list for ages now 😀 im on deviantart too, but nowhere near as extensively as i am on flickr. ive been playing around alot with different developers and emulsions lately... cant wait till exams are over and i can make some real silver prints!!
decked dubby: sweet!! another ericofon collector!! atm i have 1 that i picked up for $10 at a garage sale... hopefully one day i will find a red one for $10... but more likely $150 🙁
good to see a few mountain bikers around 😀 i havent cycled much for the past 5 months, and im feeling icky... best be getting off my bum and buying a new bike! maybe us brisbane mountain biking dubbers can have a little bush bash on the bikes one day?

I'm rusty as .... you in Camden?... the only thing I could suggest, is check out the Actors centre in Surry Hills...they do some good solid improv classes there, once a week....drop ins, so you can go whenever
if ya make it down here though, you're on mate!

Hi
I was scout leader, I followed my son from cubs to scouts. I made a lot of very good freinds with parents and kids. I taught one my older scouts how to drive, got his liscense 1st go. I retired this year when my son went to venturers, I feel i needed to give him some space.
I also edit the Club Vee Dub Sydney magazine and also look after the clubs website.
So Im doing lots of house stuff now, then I can get back to the Beetles.
