Noticed that last night. Well done!

HugeYellowBrick

Still sorting :(
But I built Smaug last night - very impressive next to a minifigure.

Bosstone100

^^^ nice modular building. The interior is quite impressive.

Just won The Hobbit: Laketown Chase on Ebay for half the retail price all in! I think it'll come in handy for my medieval town plans...

Packing up 'the entertainment' to go home after staying at the coast...



Here's hoping it all gets back in one piece, but at least it's all wrapped up per set.

SumoLego

Inadvertently added some modulars.  (I'm back to rethinking my urban planning again.)



The Town Hall is supposed to go on a second table with some modifications.  And I haven't worked out where the location of the GBHQ and BB.  

The Palace Cinema is probably next - as I am completely intrigued with utilizing the Dr. Strange set to simulate a 3D movie!

(And I definitely won't bore you with the acrobatics in my head with reference to the Cinderella Castle, and the prospect of a Disney Theme Park...)

And pardon the carnage, we had a little incident with Smaug.

Those poor minifigs! I hope they get to the hospital soon!

SumoLego

^ I wouldn't mind a modular hospital to send them to.  (With a helipad, of course.)

For now, all we have are sausages at the Fire Brigade.

C'mon - what you really want is a butcher's shop in a converted lighthouse, now isn't it?

SumoLego

^ My Green Grocer has butcher's shop.  I'd much prefer a butcher's shop IN a helicopter.  Mobile cured meats unbounded of the constraints of brick and mortar.  Butchers Without Borders...

That sounds like Daesh.

Sorting latest Bricks and Pieces order.

Don't order Brick 1X2X1 2/3 W/4 Knobs with 1/4 Circle Tile 1X1 "No. 1" at Bricks and Pieces unless you are prepared to fish them out with a compass.

chrisalddin

so right now i am trying to work out (still) how to tidy up my lego set's on display and find a place to build GBHQ. i think a good start would be to store some of them sets away. now what sets to store.

Bricklover18

Attempting to organize my collection... It might be organized in a few years. 

chrisalddin

well i know have space to build in.
do i start GBHQ or not?

catwrangler

Do it! Do it! :D

You always have place to build LEGO sets. The question is whether you have place to sleep.

I think eventually he will move out in favour of his Lego!

Nah! He'll make build a LEGO kennel and install his mother in it at the bottom of the garden - near enough to finance things, but not occupying any potential storage space.

catwrangler

I used to joke about solving our Lego storage problem by just building another house out of the stuff...

tallblocktoo

That was my next suggestion.  Perhaps @chrisalddin could just build a Lego castle and move all the family in with him.  I'm sure that may happen yet!

I think this would work perfectly for Chris; he can sleep on the bottom and build his Lego up top. There's even a slide he can slide down to make his trips to grab parts faster.

Legoboy

What you all don't know, is that is @Pitfall's actual bed.  He has his own little castle to be king of when his wife's not about.

*blink*
so i go and start building GBHQ and come back to this.
just remember there is a find line. between making a joke and picking on someone (bullying).

anyhow. i have got the first set of bags done. and will start set two soon. i may finish by sunday. we will see.

Oh, c'mon, you don't actually think that us joking around is bullying do you? You should actually read some of the other threads...yeesh!!!

catwrangler

I think perhaps I started this with my rabid and somewhat bossy enthusiasm, @chrisalddin, so I'd like to apologise for the turn things took. Brickset definitely has a tendency towards joking, but I would fervently hope nobody intended to cross the line into bullying. 

tallblocktoo

Its all in fun @chrisalddin.  We love your passion for Lego.  Enjoy the build!

You shouldn't apologize for something you didn't intend. We are all family here whether you like it or not, athough @Legoboy is the brother that nobody speaks about that we keep chained up in our attic ;)

If I'm curt with you it's because time is a factor. I think fast, I talk fast and I need you guys to act fast if you wanna get out of this. So, pretty please... with sugar on top. Clean the f****** car. 

KingAlanI

Particularly swamped with BrickLink work the past week or so. Many orders. Many newly parted out sets to sort. Some of those pieces needed for current orders, been caught up in that before but not so badly. Got many gripseal bags of various sizes to help sort my inventory, but I could use better organization for the bags.

That reminds me, I must get round to cleaning the car. My wife mentioned it to me yesterday.

i have been a bully in school before i got out of puberty!   i feel bad for this, but i try my best to turn karma around again! for years now! its hitting me back once in a while!

i shouldnt have watched "my name is earl" back in the day...  this triggered all this karma stuff!

bendybadger

I strongly believe in karma and also the golden rule and really regret some of my younger days with how I acted. I am older and wiser now and intend to give back to the world as much as possible.  

Now as a man is like this or like that,
according as he acts and according as he behaves, so will he be;
a man of good acts will become good, a man of bad acts, bad;
he becomes pure by pure deeds, bad by bad deeds

on topic..Bought a resistance x-wing fighter #75125 at lunchtime as it was half price and gave my lunchtime sandwich to a homeless guy who was really appreciative and gave part of it straight to his dog.  karma works sometimes, but it is never a perfect world.

chrisalddin

just finished set of bag's 6. of GBHQ and i am about half way done. :p

catwrangler

Mum likes to plan ahead with birthday and Christmas presents, so today we got together with my internet skills and her credit card to pick out stuff from the Lego wish list for myself and my (incredibly hard to buy for, and impervious to all the usual sorts of stockingfillers) partner. Thank the, er, creator, for Creator...
