I'm sure we would love access to some of the LSAH stuff, especially service
packs etc. The new Adventurers sounds interesting too.

Nah, not on a small scale.  BTW, the 7190 Millennium Falcon Jr. is shipping to
stores now, and *all* 2000 Adventurers sets are now available, so they're open

to have a Post-hole Digger degree.  Ah well, back to the books.  I'm glad the

bonus bag is great,thanx. :^)
your off to Europe later,what have you got planned ?
