Hi everyone, I'm Natasha and live just outside of Canberra as well. I've had MLP since I was given my first one when I was only little way back in 1983... Bluebelle (she is still the matriarch of my herd!) but have only been adding to my childhood ones for about the last decade or so (I'm starting to feel old writing this!). It's great to see so many Aussie collectors about. ;D I only collect G1s and I think I have about 300 or so (must be time for a head count!). I've just recently started some customising which is fun too!! My daughter now also collects ponies and has all three generations - she's good at swiping ponies from my collection and sneaking them into hers!! Hope to meet you all soon.

hey Natasha, and welcome to the board.
Feel free not to answer this, but where outside of Canberra are you? I'm in Murrumbateman myself. Canberra is becoming the pony collecting capitol too. Well have to have the pony fair here one year. We can have it at the albert hall and everyone can spend thousands of dollars staying next door at the hyatt.

Hello and welcome, wow another person from Canberra i may have to rethink where to hold next years fair.
Hehehe not to worry about the feeling old remark i'm sure the same goes for many of us here. It must be so lovely to have your daughter collect with you. I'm hoping my daughter will be the same, i'm already getting a good g3 collection ready for her to take over when shes old enough. Hope to see you around the boards Hugs Skaifey

Hi Natasha great to see you've found the board.
The more Aussie collectors the better.
I Look forward to seeing your input into all things MLP.

Hi Natasha! I already said hi to you on the Arena but it can't hurt to do it again! Canberra is turning into a little hot spot for collectors. A Canberra fair would be fantastic. I could bring my whole collection AND display units and racks. Though instead of Albert Hall, eevee, lets have it at the scout hall which is literally down the road from me. j/k It's next to a service station, we can have slushies.

A Canberra fair would be fantastic. I'll volunteer now to help since it's so far away for Skaifey!! The Hyatt sound spretty enticing, but I'll have to start saving now!! Xeevee - I'm in Collector, on the other side of the ACT to you, northwards. But I come through or to Murrumbateman often enough, we'll have to catch up and do some swapping (of stories and ponies!) one day. Hugs to all, Natasha. ;D

I had a drama camp at the collector town hall when I was in year 11. Like 12 years ago. Haha. We should indeed have a catch up some time
