Re: Lego

The adult Lego world does seem overly fanatical, but Lego are clearly capitalising while they can.

That said,I just don't get these new play brick sets, expensive and not actually much better than the usual sets tbh. Not including a brick in every set is just rude too.

You can set the angle of dangle with these Abba lifts, all pretty versatile really. I keep pondering a standard bike lift, Machine Mart keep doing their VAT free deals..

Re: The NHS is really good!


I could tell you plenty about how terrifyingly shit it is, and how amazing it is. And it should not be such a tale of two extremes.

Glad you got sorted so quickly though!

Re: Lego

Seen early shots on the Model T too, it looks cool but I'll wait and see what price it commands. Getting a little tired of this "adult set" pricing.

Second one - :lol:
He tried to hold it with his left hand, it rolled forward and his attempt to steady it meant he rolled the throttle on.. once the bike is off there's no stopping it.

Same, I have a Delta2 1kwh and 200w PV panel kit (yet to need to use that mind you). It ...
