Hi there

Just found this place recently due to sad circumstances (theft of all my pentax gear). But all has worked out well, and I found a great group of people. I am re-building my Pentax system and enjoying the posts here.

Welcome to the forum, sorry to hear about your loss but on the bright side you'll be building a brand new kit to work with. Just hope you had the stolen gear insured.

Well, the gear was covered through my house insurance. So I had to pay a larger deductible. Still worth it though.

It's a small dot on the map of the world only since the late 90s. Before that even Aussies scratched their heads and asked where that place was.

It's certainly come a long way, and is well and truly a regional city now.

I was there in '91. Don't remember it well, but that it was a nice little town. And climbing some big hill/small mountain......
