Another NZ based member

My name is fairly obvious and I have been watching this forum for a wee while now before deciding to finally get involved through uploading photos yesterday. I'm only a young bloke (19) but have been taking photos for several years now and have quite a decent collection of trucks from throughout the country - and some from Australia. I am currently studying towards a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Logistics & Supply Chain Management and work part time at TR Group in Auckland, a company with around 3000 rental and lease heavy vehicles all over the country. I hope to be able to add some of the local knowledge I have and learn plenty from the members already active here.

Cheers

Grant, great to see you on here at last. Your photos will be a fantastic addition to the site and will provide a target standard for us all to reach.
Be aware though of Coastie's strange sense of humour, and never ever call call an AEC a Leyland!.
There is something odd in the air on Anglesea.
It's a great site, you'll have lots of laughs, and probably learn a lot along the way from Prof GC.
Have fun mate.

You're very welcome here, Grant, and I look forward to reading your reports and seeing your photographs.

3000 sounds a lot, maybe you can explain what types of operation that involves?

Oi! I resemble that remark!

A very warm welcome from the sunny Isle of Anglesey Grant!

Hi and welcome, Grant. Some great piccygraphs already. Must be one hell of a Brownie, to go with the "eye" for a good shot.

Mike, You forgot to warn the poor laddie about my pedantry!

Hello Grant,
I think NZ must have the highest per-capita membership on the forum now.
