(...) I have to agree with Dave S on this one insofar as it's sort of mundane for many of us to answer these sorts of surveys. I would seriously be amazed if anything appears in this thread that hasn't been voiced before, or has ever gone to Lego (...) (19 years ago, 28-Jul-05, to lugnet.general)

(...) With due respect, Dan, I think that an eleven-question essay test is a bit of a turn-off. I speak only for myself, but I've already articulated their likes and dislikes throughout this forum, and I'm reluctant to go through it again. I suspect (...)

This is my final plea and I will be silent about this (I will post the results though) from now on. Lugnet isn't filled with little children. There are thousands, I think, of members here who have jobs, families, children, spouses and other things (...)

From July 1 until July 11, 2005 we stayed in Germany. With our seasonpasses we paid several visits to LegoLand Günzburg (nine to be exact: we had planned many other excursions in the area but the kids didn’t like to sit in the car for hours every (...)
