  Re: Possible ways for LA to increase sales
 
I'm not up to speed with most of the other theme's so I'll comment on the Trains. (...) The rate things are going you'll be lucky to see a new train every 2 years, which means we're up for another this year. I believe there should be two trains (...)

  LEGO and ACCC [reporting profiteering stores]

  Possible ways for LA to increase sales

To do this, all they need (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.general, lugnet.org.au)
 
  Re: Jambalaya here in Oz?
 
(...) Hi Jane, any sign of the soccer sets yet, they were sighted in Tassie. Jambalaya box, good idea !!! You can still take part in trades, if we post a wants/don't need list here. Jambalayas could certainly move between the Victorian - NSW groups. (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.org.au)
 
  Jambalaya here in Oz?
 
Now that we have a legitimate trade site etc. (thanks Todd), is anyone interested in getting a box going similar to the US one? As I am a long way from any AFOLs :( I doubt I'd be involved, but just an idea for the folks on the east coast that you (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.org.au)
 
  Re: Battle of Tank Stream
 
(...) He did indeed, and zoomed out of orbit with the Saucy Sue riding considerably higher in the water than when he arrived ;-) (...) I haven't checked, and you're probably right, but there were in fact two ships, the Saucy Sal (being Ahab's (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au.nsw.syd, lugnet.org.au)

(...) Good grief, you're right! Will fix tonight. (...) I'm not sure how to explain this, but I don't really feel the need to convince anybody.

  Re: Battle of Tank Stream
 
(...) Brilliant Mr. Parsons! Absolutely brilliant! My hat (and other miscellaneous and decorative headwear) goes off to you. I feared that the shear scope and complexity of the battle (and the fact that the rules got chucked out of the arena with (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.au.nsw.syd, lugnet.org.au)

  Studly Sendoff
 
Everyone, Peter Callaway will be leaving us soon, to greener pastures on the other side of the world, and *gasp* in the other hemisphere. I hope this gives him a chance to encounter much happier Lego Moments (and couples, and forces, and flexible (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jun-00, to lugnet.org.au)  
 
  Re: Studs web page

  Re: Studs web page
 
(...) Deidre, If you were hoping for any first-person NLSO accounts of our prowess, I'm sure that most accounts would consist of "he spends all his free time playing with that ****** Lego" type commentary.

  Re: Studs web page
 
(...) Thanks Jamie. (...) Hehe, well, for starters the 'party' shouldn't be too fun, everyone is either under 10 or over 35 (not that being over 35 is bad.

  Re: Battle of Tank Stream
 
(...) Whoa-ho!!! That's quite a battle!! I just read the whole thing, sounds like you guys had a blast (or 12).
