Afternoon chaps!
This is just a brief introduction of myself to the loc.uk group as my wife and
I will be moving from Australia to the UK in about two weeks. We're staying
for around two years, give or take, depending on how we like it ;-)
I've been involved in the loc.au and star wars groups since about October last
year, and have had awesome fun with the other loc.au folk at a few legofests
we held this year.
Unfortunately I won't be bringing my LEGO with me, but that's just a good
excuse to buy more when I get there :-)
I will be working in Bracknell (not far from LEGOland Windsor!!!) and living
somewhere between Bracknell and London (not sure yet), and I would love to
meet as many of you as possible and participate in the UK LEGO world.
Thanks...
Pete Callaway
