Well, looking at the forecast, I don't think the weather will be good for the BBQ idea :( [though if it improves, I'll make an announcement, probably Sat morning-ish] However, if you want, feel free to roll up early with lunch [There's drinks here, (...)

Hi All, While browsing the lego shelves at TRU, I noticed they are selling a US based Arctic theme bonus pact containing sets 6578 and 6586 for just under $14.00. As the 6586 normally goes for closer to $20.00, this seems to be a good deal. The 6578 (...) (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.au)
