G'day

[PeterB]

G'day folks.

My name is Peter. I live in Sydney. I love dogs, especially labrador retrievers.
I'm posting this to introduce you to my two faithful companions. Nessa (LHS)and Simba (RHS). They can be seen jointly retrieving a tennis ball in a stocking.

Maybe I'll post more when I have some additional inspiration.

regards
Peter Badcock

Hi Peter, welcome to APUG, nice to see another Aussie joining us.
Kind regards, Nicole

G'day Peter,

As Nicole said, great to see another Aussie on board. I hope you get as much from this forum as I have.

Cheers,

Peter: welcome to APUG from the wetlands of Maryland Eastern Shore U.S. One of my gods is Guinness, a black lady lab. The other is a Shetland, very old and feeble now but still going.

Welcome Peter.

 

[Jorge]

Well, I guess my avatar agrees with you......great pooches...

 

[David]

Welcome from a Melbourne APUG junkie.

 

[Nige]

welcome from another Melb APUG junkie...

My wife wanted a Lab, but I refused to have one... her parents, sister and Auntie have all got one, that's enough!!!

One of my gods is Guinness...

Dr Bob,
I hope your typo wasn't a Freudian slip!

Before I forget, dr. Bob's reply reminds me of joke...

Q. Did you hear the one about the dyslexic, atheistic, insomniac?

A. He lay awake all night wondering if there really is a dog !

Thanks everybody (Suzanne, Nicole, Graeme, Mike, dr bob, Roy, George, David and Nige) for their warm welcomes.

regards
Peter Badcock

 

[David]

You heard about the dyslexic, agnostic, insomniac who stayed up all night doubting that there was a dog.

 

[David]

Brilliant minds think alike, those two posts just went up simultaneously.

 

[dr bob]

Dr Bob,
I hope your typo wasn't a Freudian slip!

That was no typo! If you live with my gods long enough, you would appreciate their "descriptions"

 

[Graeme Hird]

They make chocolate in labs? What qualifications do I need to get a job in one of those labs?

 

[Carol]

Hello and welcome Peter. Nice to see another Aussie.

 

[Kevin Caulfield]

Welcome Peter from another Melburnian APUG addict. Our gods are schnoodles.

 

[Glenn Mathison]

Another Sydney-sider huh?

Hi Peter, welcome from yet another Australian APUG junkie... Good to see the Sydney numbers are slowly creeping up, I don't feel so overwhelmed by those Melbourne folks now

No dogs, just two boys under 6 to keep me hopping...

Welcome to APUG, Peter! I have a black lab/dalmatian mix (a true b&w girl). She is my "late-life" baby...except she's 15! haha Your babies are adorable!

So... do you also have cameras?? haha

G'day Glenn,
I had noticed there seemed to be a tad more Melbournians. I s'pose with three Vanbar stores open in Melbourne, they must service plenty of customers.

15 in dog years or human years? She's either rather young or very mature !

Do I have cameras.... maybe I'm missing something here, 'cause you laughed and I didn't get it. (were you expecting my Avatar to be a couple of cameras?!). I own a Nikon 801s (N8008s in the US).

regards
Peter

 

[BWGirl]

She's 15 in dog year... really showing her age, I'm afraid.

No... I laughed cause it's a photography forum & your intro was about your dogs! Most people tend to say.. "I own 13,000 cameras, and do mysterious printing techniques... blah blah blah" (sort of 'blinding me with science') I liked your intro better...MUCH better!

So, good to have you aboard, Peter!
