Hi from Australia.
« on: 01 April 2013, 07:55:08 AM »
Just joined.
Born in London but moved to Australia in 1964, aged 7 with the parents on the 10 pound scheme, which refers to cost not weight. (Age wise, do the math) Retired now. Became a gamer at an early age with airfix 1\72 scale figs in the back yard. Was introduced to pulp via TV. Eg: Early blk\wht Tarzan episodes, Thunderbird and Fireball xL 5. Three years in the Australian Army (Infantry), Back packed through the Middle East. Huge interest in Archaeology especially early Middle Eastern, Egyptian, Olmec, Mayan and Aztec. Dinosaurs get a mention also,...see it was inevitable I end up a pulp\Back of Beyond\Darkist Africa gamer  :)

Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
