  Legoland Windsor Photo Gallery
 
I recently took a vacation to London with my folks, and Legoland Windsor was on the list of places to visit.

(...) Be very carefull in making small text. Parts of Lugnet are very difficult for me to read (and I like small text). Part of that of course is that I've already set my font size small.

  Re: Classic Space set 6888
 
I made a movie once, with a Futuron guy flying on a spaceship over a classic space landscape -entirely in POV-ray. (The movie got lost when my HD crashed, so I can't show it to you.)
