I agree. Ther are over 300,000,000 people in the US alone! We have thousands of AFOL's active in the community. Any well run fest is a move in the correct direction. I think as in any family there are people that do not want anyone to do well. If (...) (17 years ago, 4-Jan-08, to lugnet.events, FTX)

|

Hello! That's a nice way to present your sets. Usually you just see them displayed in showcases or display-staircases or the like. That way the sets are hardly relating to each other. You however show a real Castle world. I like that. Bye Jojo (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.events, lugnet.castle, lugnet.space)
