Just a little more about me. If you've made it this far I thank you.
I am a Calibration Engineer and Small partner in a Mortgage lending company. We just won 4th overall for rookie branches nationwide.
I'm an avid supporter of cancer charities due to having Leukemia when I was quite young, some of my posts will involve speaking of the wonderful things Starlight Foundation, Canteen and Camp Quality (I will never shill or ask the community for any monetary assiatance), as well as some cyrpto info and graphs and odd things I see on the road.
As someone close to me once said
"The time is now, only you can achieve your dreams. so what are you waiting for? get off your ass and get going!"
From this post alone I can tell you will do well here.
Welcome to Steemit and welcome to an awesome community and place to be.
It looks like you are already seeing that this is a great place and I hope you will continue to find that to be the truth.
Thanks Timbo
No problem and good luck to you here! Looks like you have continued to do well. Keep it up!
I do have a question for you though... Are you a pilot? By the picture you left here in this post I would guess you are in some type of helicopter but one can never be to sure.
Either way, I wish you the best and would love more info on that photo! :D
No mate not a pilot. I'm a former aircraft engineer, so I do a little bit of flying on the side. My uncle has a few different aircraft up in the Northern Territory and whenever I'm up there I'm always in them.
Very nice my brother is a pilot in Washington just for now a private pilot. I am working on getting a pilot license but it is a pretty penny to get the hours you need to certify. Sounds like you at least learned a thing or 2 and took some good pictures! :D
Gday mate!! Another Holland Park guy on here. Its Mike A. Looks like we'll have the whole bloody highschool on here after long.
I'll stick you on my autovoter mate.
Hey Maaaaate! I think that was Ad's plan lol. More HP the merrier I say
Awesome mate, Cheers
Welcome
Thank you
Welcome to this awesome community. How's your stay here so far? Wishing you all the best of luck! ★★
Thanks mate, pretty much only just got in the door, am just reading intro posts at the moment. thanks for being awesome.
Hi noob, welcome to this site, im looking forward for more post.
Thanks
Welcome to Steemit. It's a great platform. I read Raymond Feist as a teenager and loved it. It's been so long I think I would have to start back at the Magician (was that the first one?).
Same I have most of his collection and love his work. Magician is the first book, if you're Brisbane feel free to drop me a msg I'll gladly help anyone relive their childhood memories
In Melbourne. There are pretty cheap reprints of them. Once I plow through the current reading pile I think that will be next up :)
Good choice, and you will be amazed, as there are so many more books that he has written in in the last 15ish years.
Good luck.
Welcome Dan! What a great introduction post. Are you learning to be a pilot as well?
I love flying and have taken a couple of lessons. There’s no other feeling like it other than falling out of a plane.
Judging by your doco tastes I imagine we’ll have a bit in common.
Glad to have you with us on Steemit!
Also, check out @teamaustralia. We’re a community of Aussies who are very active on Steemit (I’m in Melbourne). We support each other on here and are a very friendly bunch. :)
Thanks mate, I'm doing little bits when I can, my uncle has a few aircraft and he he's slowly teaching me whenever I can get up to N.T. I was involved in Aircraft Engineering for a few years as well. I still haven't had the courage to jump out of a plane yet but I'll build up to that one.
Thanks for the tip I'll jump over and check out @teamaustralia.
Cheers again mate
No problem. Let me know if you need any help getting involved with Team Australia.
That's awesome that you have access to planes. It's still a dream of mine to get my pilots license.
You had me at Darts and Cricket. lol. That's good enough for me. Welcome to steemit buddy. Glad to see you have recovered and good on you for giving back. Will gladly follow your work. peace bro
Thanks mate. peace
Welcome fellow Pastafarian! Great to have you.
We all need to support the Flying Spaghetti Monster for he is kind and full of wisdom
I Upvoted and followed you because of the nice movies :) Welcome!
Thanks mate, I do recommend How to make money selling drugs it's a great doco
