The Semi-Retired Foamer has been a railfan since he was around 5 years old, oh yes a very young age, an age when one really should avoid being involved with the gunzel community to any great extent. A few rather unsavoury people bringing that fact home.
After a few decades of train chasing, one decided to break with protocol and get married, thus leading to a severe cut in railfan activity.
Subsequent dealings with hate breeders, lunatics, mental defectives and self-appointed preservation overlords lead to an even greater decrease in my hobby participation.
However things have changed thanks to our small group of trusted mates, interest has returned, and now I have become a bit more involved yet again..

 Over the years I have tried my best to further both the hobby, as well as the friendships that it brings. I have done this by setting up proactive groups both here in Australia, as well as the Philippines. It is with huge honour that I am often considered the founding father of the railfan hobby in the Philippines (my second home).

I don't take the hobby too seriously and I am a friend to anyone who is good and genuine. But never forgive those who have used their hate to destroy my hobby or hurt the friends within it.

Let's Make The Hobby Great Again!
I aim to share the era that I considered mine, the 80s and 90s. I also like to help promote, and even raise funds for, the various heritage societies that keep the era alive

Kava-2fts-Hornbags: Lets Bollock Around Fiji A While! (Pt2)

G'day,
Again we take a look at Fiji.
There is not an incredible amount around the internet for the fan of Fiji trains and buses, however a few forums do exist for those with an interest.
I list some of these below.

A brand new web based forum consisting of mostly of Philippine and Fiji topics, including special sections for the gunzel that burns within.

All the latest news on the FSC and the railways that it operates. Includes much industry news.

LocoShed Yahoogroup
Both have occasional reports and information on Fiji railways.

A wealth of information and chat covering buses on all the Pacific Island nations.
A large amount of content is based on Fiji.

Wheels On Steel
A web based forum with a difference. While primarily Australian in content, Fijian railways do appear from time to time, especially after members have done a trip.

A free ezine with occasional content on Fiji railways.

Hopefully some of these will be of interest to you, I am regularly on all these groups and hope to see you there soon.
