Hey thanks, I still find it strange when my name shows up in a thread I havn't
even participated in... Better be careful or my head will swell, which
wouldn't be good because I already have a 24 inch cranium so there isn't much
room for expansion ;-).
But really thanks. I havn't done much on the Castle side for a few months now.
Actually I havn't had nearly the building time I used to and that time is now
spent on Trains and a Modern town. Most of the Castle stuff is still intact
though and I intend on returning to it one day.

I mainly made up the extra peasant houses for a NELUG display we did.

Hey I like the arch windows I think they are great. If LEGO Direct ever
offered those in bulk I would definitely be working on a huge castle. Other
things LD needs to offer would be Dark Gray Bricks (Great for walls and
Castles) and Arches in many colors and sizes.
