Hi all,

Well we had one of our best turn-outs yet on Sunday, once again at
Chadstone. Present were (apologies if I miss anyone):

Steve, Sue ann, Les, Travis, Colby, Ben, Troy, Matthew, Aaron, David, Simon
and Tony.

Apology accepted, Captain Nieder...

Oooops I forgot Martin too, but he was only there a little bit.

There were heaps of MOCs - Travis brought his Starcraft MOCs, Tonas brought
2 very nice houses and a train, Matthew had a "rocket-powered apartment" and
a nice mini-mecha, and Paul brought his... well never really found out what
it was called, but I guess "big blue & yellow space thing" will do... Oh
yeah, my city crane was there too 8?)

Are we supposed to name our MOCs? Oh. How about 'Sandra'? I've always liked
that name.

Sandra it is then.

And, in anticipation of the announced mini-MOC competition, many people also
brought various less-than-minifig-scale MOCs too, and we were all admiring
each others mini-MOCs and wondering who was most likely to win, and then
Aaron showed up with his Formula 1 scene, complete with sponsorship

A most awesome diorama, even if it did advertise alcoholic beverage :-)
Makes me wonder whether it'd be practical for us to make a 'mini' town >layout...

Hmmmm. Interesting idea.... I think ross Neal did one with a 2-wide train
going around the perimeter but I cant put my finger on a link...

And after all that, we also floated the idea of a Victorian "train thang",
so hopefully we'll be meeting again soon to do some train stuff 8?)

Did that idea incorporate a monorail layout? I remember mentioning it, but I
can't remember what the general opinion was.

I think that was a resounding "yes".

And Ben assured everyone that we definitely will have BrikWars next time...

Isn't that what he said three meetings ago? :-)

Dunno - lost count....
