I did some digging and it does indeed seem that this offer hasn't made
it on to the website :-(  I'm told that will soon be rectified.  I know
it exists as I have a Biker Bob on top of my monitor :-)

However if anyone can't wait, the book can be ordered directly from us
on 0870 842 0000.  Post and Packing are Free of Charge in the UK and
Ireland.

The ISBN of the offer is 0334107166 and it's featured in the Make
Learning Fun brochure.

As I said before though, if you know a DKFL advisor please consider
ordering it through them as that way they get the commission on the
sale.

(Apologies if anyone considers this an advertisement, it wasn't meant as
such.)

If you are going to buy the book, either find a local DKFL Advisor or
try www.dk.com.  There is currently an offer on where the book is on
sale for 8.99 and comes with a free Biker Bob model!

You might need a code for the website, if you do, email me directly and
I'll sort you one out.

BTW - the book is a great read.  That's a personal opinion, not a
company statement :-)

On the way back from seeing "The Blair Witch Project" this afternoon • (boy, is
that gonna be easy to do in Lego form!), I passed by a bookshop in • Glasgow

I can't remember the exact name of the shop (Ottaka, Ottara, Ottaraka,
something along those lines anyway), but it can be found at the entrance • to the
new Buchanan Galleries mall on the corner of Sauchiehall Street and • Buchanan

An expert Lego builder will be appearing at the store on Saturday 13th • November

help us complete our model of... [aaargh, that movie is freaking with my • head,
I can't remember what it was now, the something Rose, maybe Winchester • Rose?].
It also added that you could trade in your bricks for a special gift* • [*while
stocks last].
The poster was surrounded by a few copies of "The Ultimate Lego Book" by • DK
(£12.99), and, after browsing the book for a couple of minutes, the • poster
itself seemed to include images taken from it such as a Beefeater and a
globe... the book has some fan-tastic models in, but I'm in a quandary as • to
whether or not to buy it cos its just the kind of thing my Aunt would buy • me
for Xmas! [And also cos I'm almost bankrupt, but such is the student • life...]
