Hi all

Well, after a trek of more than 10000 miles through 10 US states & 5 Canadian
provinces, followed by a 15 hour plane ride back to Australia, I expected to
have a massive case of jet lag.

But something caused me to open some LEGO when I arrived home at about 9:30 am
(I dunno, maybe just 'cos it was there??), and so I embarked on building
everyones favourite female arsonist. After about 5 hours (I say about, because
it was actually 8 hours with breaks), there she was in all her glory. And I was
happy. So I instantly fell asleep on the sofa, and what dya know? When I woke
up the next morning, NO JET LAG!!!

So the moral of this story is, always have an un-built 3450 lying around, build
it the first day you get back from a long trip, and the ugly effects of jet lag
will be eliminated!!

And for those who haven't seen it yet, I uploaded some "progress" shots I took while I was building. You can't quite see the "imposter bricks" I had to use to cover a small trade with ++Lar... Enjoy ROSCO (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-01, to lugnet.general)
