Photos in the idea house were not allowed, but I specifically arranged to go
to the vault for Brickset research purposes, and confirmed that photographs
were permited beforehand.

I didn't mention that while I was in there I was interviewed and
photographed by the LEGO Life [1] reporter, so if you get to see that, look
out for me in a future issue! I was asked to pick a favourite set with which
to be photographed with. I chose one of the Maersk truck sets...
