|
| (...) I remember saving up to buy one of these many years ago. It's a lovely set and an under-used colour scheme at the time. I've put mine together again, although the gold symbols have faded. I think of it now more as a UN-like relief transport, (...) (21 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.town)

| Here's an odd request: Since I have way too much time on my hands these days, I've been cleaning up in areas of the house that haven't been visited in years. I've come across some old 8mm tapes made with my first camcorder (now scrapped for parts). (...) (22 years ago, 13-Dec-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

My, perhaps simplistic question is: Why not continue building with the huge stockpile you (...) (21 years ago, 20-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)
