  Educational store in Bells Corners

  Re: ParLUGment to Display at Railfair 27, Ottawa, Canada
 
Nope. I pretty much kept to myself, admiring the work in awe :-) I'm still a little shy about my little Lego obsession. Odd, isn't it? I'm trying to work up the courage to attend the next ParLUGment meeting. Oh, and I'm looking forward to seeing (...) (20 years ago, 18-Oct-04, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

Hi Daniel, Glad you enjoyed it! I didn't get to meet you - did you introduce yourself to anyone else in the club? I'm guessing pictures should be posted within a few days or less. I know Tim probably took close to a 1000 picture :) Kevin (...) (20 years ago, 17-Oct-04, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

Just got in from the show. The layout was fantastic! Absolutely amazing. Clearly the hit of the show. Great job to all who contributed. I wish my creations were so creative and well-build. Now I realize that I don't own nearly enough Lego :-) Daniel (...) (20 years ago, 17-Oct-04, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment)

Hi, I'm new to the group and new to Lego train collecting. I'm wondering if there is anywhere in the city where I can pick up extra track, or that has good prices on sets. Any good tips would be appreciated. Thanks! D (20 years ago, 22-Aug-04, to lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott)
 
  Star Wars Minis @ Sears
 
G'day folks, I've noticed that Sears has been putting the Star Wars minis on for $6.94, but they aren't consistent about which series of minis is on sale.

Have to agree with getting more Pick a brick stores, you have one in Windsor, down in the south of england, there should be one up north, say Manchester, so i can get the bits i need without resorting to bricklink :D (20 years ago, 30-Apr-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.ca, lugnet.loc.ca.on.ott, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.dear-lego)
