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

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 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!!!

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.

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

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

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

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

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 :D

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

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! :D
