Brilliant idea, UKLTC is an ideal utopia, call it what you like. Main thing
is we get something started which has potential for national involvement.

On a smaller scale, discussions regarding best practise/proposed modules
have taken place and proposals will be posted shortly for essential feedback

the main aim is to have fun and play with Lego.

Exactly - the concept of regular meetings is essential, hence the localised
emphasis. National/regional meetings would of course be a bonus and bring
many benefits
