   Hey everyone,

   I finally have *SOMETHING* to report, other than the fact
   that it's summer here, for which many of you may feel free
   to envy me.

   In the December 2002 "Living and Loving" magazine that appears
   here in South Africa (and, because it's in English, may appear
   in other markets too) there's a promo in the magazine baggie
   of a little foam "Bob the Builder" ruler topped with Bob's head,
   and the BtB and LEGO logos directly underneath.  There's nothing
   overtly LEGO-y about it aside from the logo, and it's slightly
   weird given that it's a "Health and Beauty for Family" kind of
   magazine.  The second promo with it is a little package of
   dry powder baby formula, which has nothing to do with BtB or LEGO.

   Has this thing appeared in Europe anywhere, or in the US?  Or
   is this South Africa specific?  The magazine is printed with a
   price only in Rand so it could go either way (editions vs. local).

   Also, Afrikaans makes my ears and eyes hurt.  It's like Dutch,
   only "wrong."

   all best (and followups duly set to .promo)
