...or at least they will do on my desk some time this afternoon!

Just called into Woolies in Bromley to see a stack of chrome knight sets at
£1.99 each (and I paid £3.99 when I found 'em up north), plus two tubes
containing several copies of one of the new mini dinosaur sets at £2.99
each... Yeah, I know they're ugly, but I can't miss anything out of my mini
set collection, can I?

I asked if they had the full set of four, and the kindly gal went off to the
stock room and emerged with three further cartons. It turns out that LEGO
send out these mini sets now prepacked in the acetate tubes, two per box.
Now yer know ;-)

BTW: haven't spotted any of the BIG dinos yet.

...cue Sam Neil a la Jurassic Park...
