Hi I'm a new member from Australia.

I'm looking forward to getting stuck into the info on this site. I can see myself spending hours pulling reels apart (will start with the lesser used models methinks).

Cheers to all on the site and happy holidays.

Wallace, Dirk, both you guys had me going to Google Earth.  Man you two are on complete opposite coasts.  Wallace it looks like you are a long way from salt water.  It looks like I'm going to have to save up my pennies and take a trip there. Dominick

Wallace:  Thanks for the New Year wishes, same to you and to all the Alan Tani folks.  I looked at the islands off the coast where you live.  Strange place Australia, there is Penguin Island but the pictures show Pelicans no Penguins  :o. By the way do you always drive that fast? ;D  Dominick

G'day mate, welcome. We're starting to get a significant number of Aussies and Kiwis here now, that's good!  ;D

I'm just up the road from you in Pt Stephens.

They're a pretty relaxed bunch around here, enjoy!

Dave.
