In the middle of the night a pack of dingoes stole her daughter right out of the tent. She told the police what happened, but they didn't believe her. Lindy Chamberlain spent three years in prison for the murder of her daughter. five years later somebody found a scrap of Azaria's clothes outside of a dingo lair, and Lindy was released. There have been a series of inquests into Azaria's death. It wasn't until 2012 that the official cause of death was closed. Baby Azaria really was eaten by dingoes.

Gah, how tragic! Not only does your child get killed, you spend jail time for the death that you didn't commit. :(

Hello, I've been on here a few weeks now and really like the whole vibe. And I've laughed hard at some things on here too! I'm from London, 37 years young, work as a sound engineer and been collecting on and off since as long as I can remember.

First console: Philips Videopac
Most played console: SNES
Most unplayed console: PS4
Most salivated over console: AES
Most fun console: Wii U/Wii
Most nostalgia for a system: NES/MD/SNES on equal grounds here

I also go MTBing and scratch mix hip hop/DnB and oldskool.

Cool. Let me issue a formal welcome to the board, then. Sounds like you have quite an interesting set of hobbies. When you do mixes, do you ever try to sneak in some chip stuff?

Actually have some great 12" DJ tools by DJ Rectangle which contain loads of streetfighter2 samples. Great to scratch with, I'll get something posted up soon :)

Thanks for the warm welcome!

It looks like one of those wooden box cartridge holder things. Its been awhile since I've heard of or seen one of those things. If I had the room I'd use those for my loose carts that i have.
