When was that again Paul?
I neglected to mention that this list was sent to me 3-4 weeks ago, all of the
sets listed were there then. Who is clearing out Milton? Hope it is not some
ebay entrepreneur. All these sets including my lost laybuy have been there
for years gathering dust, and suddenly the place is cleared out within a
month! (old Duplo and all) I had purchased a few misc sets from him and all
the Lego remained untouched there for months, now Kapow they all disappear :-(
I am still in shock over losing my laybuy, escpecially as I had been referring
friends left right and centre to him who were buying all his old stock of all
sorts of useless rubbish (pound puppies etc) He was doing cartwheels, then
goes and accidently puts my huge laybuy (for my sons birthday and christmas)
back on the shelf (after promising he wouldn't) bugger laybuy, next time I use
plastic *cringe, whimper, it is a cruel, cruel world"
