Australia/New Zealand Australian's - Free Film Friday

Fantastic! Now I'll be be keenly anticipating its arrival. I'll bet It won't arrive until next Monday, or even Tuesday, even though I'm "just down the road"!

Thanks again Fergus - you're a gentleman! 🙂
 
Waah!

Note to self : Never go on holiday without the interweb.

Q. How many Fergus's does it take to out every RFFer living in Oz?
A. 1.1 GST Incl

Good on ya mate.
 
Fergus,

Chris and I shared the present from you today... thank you.

You sure know how to become popular around here 🙂

Now... does anyone have a pdf link to an "AP Bobinquick-135" bulk film loader?
 
Fergus ... you're a legend! My package arrived today and I'm going to treasure every 'free' frame!

Thanks again. 🙂
 
Fergus, a nice little package arrived in my letterbox today, thank you so much for the film - It won't go to waste thats for sure!

Cheers again
Gavin
 
I think this is one of the most generous things I've seen on this forum ... to go to all the trouble of splitting this film up amongst a group of Aussies and posting it off to them is outstandingly civilised.

Fergus is to be congratulated ... there's a special place in heaven for people who do these sorts of things! 😛

Exactly what I'd hoped for... some new/different films for you all, prompting a small creative 'burst'. Nicely timed too for Keith's current 1-lens challenge.

For me 1 less shelf to pack, and I now have my film down to my 2 favorites, got rid of all my odds and ends.

Very kind words Keith, but really all I did was give a little film and post a few envelopes.

Several people have asked 'why?' and I guess others are curious.

Well, I find this is far more worthwhile than getting a few bucks through an ebay listing or whatever. Some months back I offered all this film (and more) here is the classifieds and got just a couple of takers, and it was priced about 90% off compared to new from Sydney shops and about half-price compared to a big order from B&H or Freestyle. So, I concluded there was not a big market in 'second hand' film here in Oz. I reckon to move it on ebay you'd need multiple ads as no-one wants the variety - look at the requests for this giveaway, people know what they want and there's nothing wrong with that, it just makes the selling etc more of a headache.

Also I am a big believer in Karma etc... currently learning to get to and stay in 'theta' so I can talk to the universe a bit more. Theta is pretty close to deep-sleep, so I keep dropping off, but it's a fun journey.

But tonight it's time for alcohol, it's been a long and tiring week, and I think a few Mojito's will do nicely. Cheers...
 
Got my package today! thank you so much Fergus a lovely selection of mainly colour negative and slide. Can't wait to get shooting tomorrow.
 
Thanks Fergus - Few rolls of Portra arrived on Tuesday. Perfect timing... should have some nice storm shots in the bag 🙂 Very much appreciated mate!
 
Must be good Karma week.
My neighbor is moving tomorrow and me mrs said that he had some meat in his freezer for me... ( I thought OK)

So I go next door tonight and his wife pulls out a small bag - from the freezer - about 30 rolls of 35mm Velvia and another 20 of 220 mixed b/w and velvia!

Viva You'se good blokes !
 
Finally got my package today.. the long wait was certainly worth it! Got a whole heap of film that I've been just itching to try out before purchasing in bulk.

Thanks Fergus, you're a legend. I think have a new best friend. 😀
 
Rigby - you must live out in the boon-docks? All were posted at the same time, a while back now. Bloody Australia Post!!!

Enjoy the film 🙂
 
Nope, I live about 5 mins from Brisbane CBD though I guess some would consider that to be out in the boondocks. 😛 I'm hoping that they didn't consider it suspicious and xray it or something!

Thanks again, I appreciate it.
