Hi all, apologies for never posting here I amazingly overlooked the thread?
My name is Ben (no surprise) I'm an accounts clerk (part Time) at a company called Infoxchange Australia in Abbotsford (across the road from Jane/AUSSKY) and to add to the "stalkiness" of things I'm originally from Woodend (still call it home) and my Mum knows Jane
(Mum is involved in the RSL and gets toner from Jane who is nice enough to deliver it in person on her way home on the rare occasion it's ordered.)
I also work for a friend who owns a Vidoe store in Prahran doing his accounts which is approx 1 day a week. So occasionally I'll make the odd post from Prahran (like today)
I've just moved to Sunshine North after being in Murrumbeena for 16 years, addicted to sport and weather. Always wanted to be a weather person but sadly it never panned out (was doing a TAFE course 1991 which was BOM sanctioned only for the BOM to pull out as RMIT wasn't producing what they wanted in their recruits) I've worked mainly in accounts though flirted with Football (as a Property Steward & statistician for a VFL club) which was fun but sadly it was more voluntary than paid so had to get a real job which ended that bit of fun, though we won a flag which was an awesome experience.
I don't storm chase but would love reading anything and everything about storms, I was on wz and when this started followed the knowledgeable ones across to here.
What else is there to tell, I'm 37, single (and happy that way) aside from sport (just about any sport) and weather I'm into cards, being a Bridge player, I'm also a solid 8-ball player love a game of Poker and am a collector of Music video's (yes Video!) I've about 250 hours of music videos mainly 80's & 90's stuff but my range of what I like is large. I'll talk the hind leg off an iron chair, especially about sport, music, weather or politics. I Don't understand cat people or dog people as I believe that both are great.
that's about it, I'll put my Lurker's hat back on again.
