Meanwhile in the shopping mecca of chatswood, Tar-zhay has <consonant indicating
"not much at" deleted>-ay, unless you want slizers or the largest arctic set,
while GBs seemed to have almost all of the new LoM, Star Wars and DUPLO at quite
reasonable prices (no purple people pumper though).
The Duplo greenhouse looks like an excellent set, for only $20 at Grace Bros. A
tree, some flowers, bricks with fruit decoration, a fig, a cat, some
accessories, the NEW corn brick, the NEW carrot brick and of course the
eponymous greenhouse, a great piece that cries out for de-SPUDding.
