I saw the last picture - yikes, a cup of coffee as big as one's head. No

| (...) Ditto! Both very, very nice. This kind of building- modelling real-life things with a LEGO style- is the best kind, IMHO. I love them. (...) You obviously haven't ever been to Starbuck's. :D eric (23 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town)
