'Ullo, 'ullo, 'ullo...what 'ave we got here then? Not another TUG [1]
delurking ?
Welcome to the group. [If you've delurked before, sorry. It's just I don't
recognise the name/email address :) And I thought there were only 2 TUGs on
lugnet.]
[1] TUG, in case you're interested, is what Tassie lego collectors are
referred to as. The complete list at present is:
BUG = Brisbane/Qld
MUG = Melbourne [actually Vic, but VUG didn't seem as easy to
remember/pronounce.]
SLUG = Sydney [though for some reason they want everyone to think they're
STUDs.]
SUG = S.A.
TUG = Tassie
WUG = W.A.
NSW (country), ACT, and NT don't as yet have an acronym...the local's had
better start coming out and choosing one :)
Both SUG and WUG are temporary names till the locals come up with a new
acronym.[as are the rest..it's just that those 2 definitely need replacing.]
