Hello all,

After being contacted by several people I'm once again sending around a note
about forming an Irish Lego Users Group. I was too over run with work to pursue
this as I should have last year, but am hoping now to give it a good run now.
Blanket apologies ; )

I'm located in Cork and Belfast (long story), so any of the major cities would
suit. Anyone who would be interested in attending a meet up some time in
september please email me you're preferred city (Dublin will most likely be the
evil compromise).

Hey all, just sent these out to a few people and thought I’d post here just in case...

I’m crossposting to .UK/.NI in case anyone reads there more frequently. We’re trying to be island wide (I’m from Portadown so the North is represented)...

The message:

Greetings all,

I’m contacting you about forming an Irish Lego User’s Group (lug).

the fine print (which allows me to sublet your home ; ): You’re receiving this because you emailed/PMed/responded to an online post...

What we’d like to do is get an Irish lego group together, I know we are a small and diverse group, with some preferring collecting and some who prefer building, but I’d love to get us all together for some lego based craic once/twice a year with the possibility of growing from there...

The basic proposal: to start us off we could meet for a drink/meal in one of the cities (probably this autumn) and share our love of the brick.

If you know anyone else interested please pass this on...

Hey all,

Been back home for a while now and have noticed more and more fellow Irish fans of lego appearing online. Thought it might be time to ask around and see if anyone would be interested in starting an Irish lego users group. Due to the limited number of us, the scope wouldn’t be that big, more of a cure for oversees LUG envy. But if there’s enough interest I’d love to be involved in some form of something ; )

If anyone would be partial to some lego based craic give me an email and will try and get a vague list going....

Thanks a million,

Nathan Todd greenbricklandNOSPAMscape@dublin.com ‘Norro’

A MOCtale* part 1:




Every legend begins with a little greed... This one begins with a lot...

Tis a tale of two brothers; one wise and the other foolish... Foolish enough to believe a traveler’s tale of a vast treasure horde... Nine chests, of such bountiful wealth that they could only be transported by a stone cart, buried deep in a secret shaft of a lost mine, whose owners had been overtaken by a terrible fate...

Two long years without word passed, and then the eight greatest warriors of the clan set out with their Chieftain to find this lost mine. For a brother is a brother, no matter how foolish...

Stand at the entrance, dare to find, who can tell what awaits at the: Entrance To The Caves



  • A MOCtale is a story told by MOCs of its pivotal scenes...



About this particular MOC:

I’m very pleased with the way this turned out, I’ve never built a cut-away MOC before and there are also a lot of features packed into the relatively small space of this model. It is the first in a series I have planned which will complete a MOCtale. It is also the first time I’ve tried my hand at editing, I can only get better ; ). As always please let me know what you think.

Thanks and God Bless,

Nathan

Tonight on BBC2 at 8pm, my girlfriend (Yvonne Doyle) and I will be on James
May's Top Toys, talking about our mutual love for the brick. Hope you enjoy it!
