Hello everyone, I got my package thingy today, rang the confirmation number and I'm an afternoon person too. No-one here knows me from Adam, and I'm probably the worst MOC model-builder you could imagine, but what the heck, I just had to book up. (...)

You shouldn't worry. The general public are nice. As is the case with antique markets and toy fairs, things don't tend to get stolen. Unsavoury types have other things to do! To be on the safe side, I will be bringing along a number of non-Lego (...) (22 years ago, 14-Jul-02, to lugnet.loc.uk)
