    Ladies and Gentleman we have a winner......

    Very pleased to announce that the winner of The Mini Store Exclusive is.....

    @Legopants!

    Congratulations. I'll be in touch to get your postal address so I can get this mailed out on Monday.

    You will all have to excuse me for being cheesy here but everyone who took part is a winner in my book. The impression I had all the way through was that the prize wasn't important, it was just a nice bonus. Everyone should be very proud of themselves.

    One final thankyou to everyone for your support. I'll report back when purchases have been made which will hopefully be this week. I know everyone will want to know about the bounty :-)

    All for a Mini Store. Really good work Kev and everybody that participated.
  • SirKevbagsSirKevbags Member Posts: 4,027
    I know there are some unpopular sets there, Marina for example but when I've seen kids playing with it they enjoy it and it was heavily discounted.

    I've been playing Santa early today (without the suit)

    Pictured is five year old Rohan, currently suffering with pneumonia. With him is is Karen Foster, a Hospital Play Specialist. She provided the following quote.

    "The Lego will provide hours of fun for the older children who have to stay in hospital. As well as bringing children together socially in small groups this will benefit children who have to stay in their rooms.

    We would like to say a big thankyou to all who have donated to provide us with the Lego and bringing hours of fun to the children."

    Rohan who can't leave his room at the moment decided to keep hold of The Batcave to build this afternoon :-)

    A little moment for everyone at Brickset to be proud of.
  • atkinsaratkinsar Member Posts: 4,258
    That's great Kev, thanks a lot for sharing.
  • LegoboyLegoboy Member Posts: 8,827
