Hi all,

Having moved about a year ago, we now finally have a room entirely devoted
to Lego. Over the last year, we have been working on several layouts, the

area is to follow.

Great start - I can't wait to see when it's all "done" (as if anything
in LEGO is ever really done...)

Are you building it in a modular fashion so you can take it to shows
or will it never leave your home?
