Hello,
FreeLUG (with the agreement of organizators) would like to organize a building
contest : build the strongest bridge with LEGO Parts.
If you like building bridge with LEGO parts, and want to test the resistance of
it, this challenge is for you :-). You will see that LEGO bricks can support
heavy charge.
The goal is to build the most resistant 100 studs long bridge.
Every LEGOWorld’s exhibitors and volunteers are welcome for this challenge.
the contest will take place on saturday, 22th October.
the complete rules of this contest are
here in english and
here in french
if something is unclear or if you have any question, please ask us (me or in
this thread).
we hope to see a lot of bridge
See you,
Jean-Louis Bergamo

Hello European AFOL :-)
FreeLUG (French LUG) would like to do a big Great Ball Contraption at LEGOworld this year. we have about ten modules at
this time.
To increase the size of this GBC, we would
like to invite all AFOL, who planned to bring one or more module, to join us. We
will make a good place for your modules :-)
If you don’t know what is a GBC module, read this
http://www.teamhassenplug.org/GBC/. It is very easy to make one simple module
( and one module don’t take a lot of place :-) ).
So if you want to join us into a big GBC, please tell us (here or at my personal
email : jlb@freelug.org ), so we can provide a place for your modules.
I hope to see a lot of GBC modules at LEGOWorld :-)
See you,
Jean-Louis Bergamo,
member of FreeLUG

Hi Pedro,
You need to read the "recent post history" more often!
http://news.lugnet.com/announce/moc/?n=2113
It's Jon Furman's. He announced it about five hours ago.

Hi all,
I just found this on brickshelf:

From the looks of it, I'd say it's inspired (loosely) in the courtyard of the
Great Mosque, in Cordoba (Spain). But I'd really love to know more about this

Bienvenidos si venís desde la página de YahooGroups, del foro creado por Koldo.
Como comenta Miguel Agullo, desde aquí se puede hacer una organización más
directa de todo esto. Además damos pie a que los miembros de los grupos de otros
países puedan ver nuestro flujo de datos, y comentarnos o ayudarnos en cualquier
cosa.
Así que animaos y practicad un poquito en este foro, que es muy chulo. El único
pequeño engorro es que una vez que envías un mensaje, Lugnet te envía otro en el
que tienes que poner una X entre [ ] para confirmar que eres tú el que envía el
correo (para evitar suplantadores).
Además, este foro permite incluir imágenes, links, accesos a la base de datos de
Lugnet... si algo no controláis, enviadme un correo y os contesto para
explicaros cómo poner posts y otros mogollones. Un saludo,
(alias Julen)

Hi Matthias,

Hi Matthias,
..and a babelfisch translation from Dutch to English would not help much.. :-)
Herewith Ludo's story translated:
/start/
Hi Paul,
Thanks for this proposition. We, some Vlamingen (=people from the Dutch
speeking part of Belgium *khm) intend also to start a Club, if possible.
Every bit of help from experienced guys from De Bouwsteen is welcome! Our first
meeting is at my place on 12.04.2003. Result of the meeting?... W'll see.
/end/
Klaas H. Meijaard
Hé Ludo! Veel succes! We zijn benieuwd naar jullie bevindingen!
/transl:/ Good luck! :-)

Hallo Paul,
Hartelijk dank voor dit voorstel. Wij, dit zijn enkele Vlamingen, zijn ook
van plan om, indien mogelijk, een Club op te richten. Zo, alle hulp van
ervaren personen zoals jullie van De Bouwsteen, is hartelijk welkom. Wij
zouden onze eerste samenkomst bij mij thuis houden op 12 April 2003. Dan
zien we wel wat er eventueel uit de bus komt.
Groetjes uit West Vlaanderen,

Hello everybody,
De Bouwsteen is the Dutch LEGO users group and has currently almost 600
members. Amongst other activities, we organize three club events a year
and we are also actively participating in LEGO world, the biggest LEGO
event of Europe, with in the year 2002 over 37000 visitors in five days.
We would like to get in contact with as much as possible other LEGO user
groups in Europe (or people who are interested in starting up a LEGO
user group) to discuss the possibility of forming an European Federation
of LEGO user groups.
The purpose of this European Federation of LEGO user groups is to
exchange information about the organization of the different LEGO user
groups, the organization of events, as well small events as big events
like LEGO world, and also to synchronize agenda's to minimize the
overlap of events in different countries.
Another advantage of an European Federation of LEGO users group is that
it will be easier to communicate with LEGO and that white gaps are being
identified.
If you would like to discuss about the possibiliteis of an European
Federation of LEGO user groups, please contact me, Paul Koelewijn.
Hasta LuEGO,
Paul Koelewijn
President 'De Bouwsteen'

Hello all,
I've spotted the LEGO Legend set #10041 (remake of set #6390 - Main Street)
in the new UK 2003 Shop at Home catalog, price £49,99 (British Pounds). This
confirms the set will be available for European Shop at Home customers also.
We might also be first again, for the European release date the catalog
said: "Not available to ship until end of January 2003"
With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen.

Hola a todos!
PLUG está organizando su segunda fiesta este año, en los días 14/15 de
Septiembre, y a mí me ocurrió que podría haber AFOLs españoles de vacaciones
en Portugal en esa ocasión - así que estoy afijando este anúncio, a nosotros
nos gustaría mucho la vuestra presencia! :-)
El encuentro será cerca de la frontera gallega, en una pequeña vila llamada
Vila Praia de Âncora. Para los interessados, el lugar es servido por trenes
desde España por Tuy, o desde Lisboa (ambos casos pueden exigir una
correspondencia). El aeropuerto más cercano es en Porto (Oporto), a unos
100km (no sé se en Vigo hay vuelos regulares). Hay autopistas desde España,
vía Tuy (Norte) o Badajoz - Lisboa (Sur); ambos casos conducen hasta la

LEGO®WORLD 2002,
Maybe you have already heard something about this, but here is the offical
announcement. From October 18 until October 22, The IJsselhallen in Zwolle, The
Netherlands will be once again be devoted to LEGO, as then probbaly Europes
biggest LEGO-event LEGO®WORLD 2002 will be held.
Last year, LEGO®WORLD 2001 was a big succes with over 27.500 visitors.
Unfortunately many people had to be disappointed, as it was to crowded to let
more people in. Therefore this year the event will be even larger then last
year. Not only will the event now last 5 days instead of 4, but more
importantly the floor size will be double as big as last year.
LEGO will show a lot of very nice things this year again and also the dutch
LEGO users group 'De Bouwsteen' (The Buildingbrick) will be present again. Last
year very many people were interested in our own creations. There were so many
people present in our area that it was even hard to walk around there.
Therefore we will have this year a much larger area to show all creations and
it seems to be very interesting what we will display.
What will be there to see:
Of course LEGO is present with a huge amount of nice things to see and of
course there are LEGO building contests. I don't know all the details of what
they will show but last year they had very nice things.
I can tell you more about what 'De Bouwsteen' will show, because I'm one of the
people organising the part of the event which will be filled in by De
Bouwsteen.
Trains.
This year there will be again a huge train layout with many trains and scenery.
The trains will go through mountains and over bridges. One of the bridges will
span a long distance without any kind support. A masterpiece of building
technique.
Miniland.
Connected to the train layout is Steendam. The Miniland city of the members of
De Bouwsteen. We asked all our members to build a city building on a 32x32
baseplate. With about 450 members, this will become one of the biggest LEGO
cities you have ever seen.
Trade and sale
Of course you have the possibility to buy new LEGO sets at the event, but there
will also be a possibility to buy second hand LEGO or try to trade your LEGO
with that of others.
Historical overview:
Whereas in the section of LEGO many of the newest sets will be displayed, De
Bouwsteen has an area where a lot of older LEGO sets will be displayed. Bring
back the memories of your childhood and look at the sets you always wanted to
see in realtiy
Own creations.
What is a LEGO users group without any own creations? Many of our members have
made beautiful models which they will show during LEGO WORLD. Enormous,
detailed buildings and cranes are only a few of the creations that will be
shown.
Demonstrations:
This is the time to find out what you can do with LEGO. Of course we will show
you how to work with Mindstorms. Also you can learn everything about LDraw to
build fantastic models in on the computer. Rather want to work with the real
bricks? Then look at the special techniques demonstrations where you can learn
a lot of tricks to make your models to look nicer.
Diner
On one or more evenings we will organize a diner for LEGO fans in a restaurant
nearby LEGO WORLD 2002. Here we have the opportunity to relax from the event
and talk to eachother about everything connected to LEGO.
Tickets
Tickets will be availble at the Intertoys toy stores in the Netherlands
starting August 26. For foreign people we'll try to find a solution so that
they can also buy there tickets in advance. We didn't find the perfect solution
yet, but we are working on it. For the time being, people interested in tickets
are adviced to contact me via e-mail.
Lodging
A large number of volunteers and exhibitors will stay in holiday park close to
Zwolle. If you are interested in joining us there, please contact me.
The organising comittee of the Bouwsteen consists of:
Sybrand Bonsma, Eric Brok, Erwin van Grinsvin, Jaco v/d Molen, Paul Wolters,
Hans Beuze, Mark v/d Horst, Rick Zonneveld and Peter van Es

Hi all,
I need a bit of English to Spanish translation help if somebody has a few
minutes. I don't want to post it publicly, because it's for a project that
I'm not ready to talk about yet.
Thanks in advance,
Lou Zucaro

That's probably what they did, which is a shame because they could have
seized the opportunity to level the prices throughout the euro-zone.

Still that does not explain why a certain set has the same price in two
countries while another set differs as much as EUR 10,- in price in those
same two countries. Shipping costs are calculated seperately so should not
be of influence.
