I know I missed some sorry, it was great seeing everyone.

And yes those were my crazy daughters running around getting everyone's
signature.  For the most part it sounded like they didn't bother anyone but to
those that they did I apologize.  I plan on saving those shirts to bring to
future fests/cons for display.

Here's the photos I got, wish I got more.

I told a few of you I was still looking for work. Well within an hour after I
got home on Monday I got a call and a job offer! YEAH!

later,
Thomas

A lot of nice things can be seen in all these pictures. If only the purple
didn't make it such a "loudmouth", I would love to buy Larry's building as a
custom set. Several other pretty and original buildings, carts and
siege-machines catched my eye. I realy like the Viking longboats and the
jousting tournament scene. Thank you all for sharing all the goodies, fellow
Legoniers!

Ahh, must have been the good vibrations from being surrounded by lots of LEGO
bricks. Congratulations!

With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

If I did it as a custom I'd either have to source a LOT of purple from Billund
or somewhere (it used up about 1/2 of the stash I got there after LEGOWORLD) or
change colors. But I can't see doing it, I have too many other projects awaiting
completion and Castle is a dabble, not my true love.

But thanks!

My goal with that building was to get people laughing, and I did. I just wish
Alex Husby had been there to see it... :-)
