The Brickish Association held their second Christmas Party at Legoland Windsor last Saturday (4th December) with about 40 people attending, some bringing their children. The event was held in The Mansion which is used as Lego’s offices and their corporate hospitality suite. Apparently the house used to be the American ambassador’s residence and the room we were in was the JFK room.

Activities included:
•A dragon building session copying a pre-built model, (Many, errr... customisations were apparent.)
•Pass-the parcel with small Clikits or MacDonalds polybags in every layer. Strangely the music seemed to stop when a child had the parcel! There was compensation for the person next to them in the form of Duplo store opening commemorative bricks.
•An auction of mixed parts, shop displays and sets was ably presented by Michael LeCount in his unimitable style. Proceeds went to the Brickish Association and charity.
•A trip up the park to the Big Shop and Pick-a-Brick.
•We were provided with a very good buffet lunch by Lego catering who also supplied endless quantities of tea, coffee and biscuits.

Much talking and comparing of ideas took place and it was a good chance to meet familiar faces again and welcome new ones in a very friendly atmosphere.

Various members brought MOCs and and old sets etc. to display; pictures of these and the event can be seen here.
