I haven't been reading much Lugnet news lately as I spend most of my
online Lego time on lowlug.nl. Somehow, the few times when I came back
here I didn't feel I was missing much.
This people thing really takes the biscuit though. I'm an adult, a

bikers about my other hobby. Can I have a newsgroup too?
Lugnet as a reference is still brilliant, but the newsgroups? Sorry,
can't take this serious anymore....
Oh, before anyone starts: I totally appreciate peoples choices in life
(well, within reason) but I don't think this belongs on Lugnet.
