Some more Lego sets are being released soon. I rather like the vintage steam train.
In the pictures of the box, it states it can be upgraded with Power Up components.
I’m tempted to buy it, and an extra train motor as I’ve already got a spare Bluetooth hub.
The hub is easily swapped between locomotives.

I’ve just built another camper van from some spare parts.

For those of you who think Lego is just square bricks, it isn’t. It doesn’t have to be kits either. I have seen bananas used as thatched roofs, white croissants decorating buildings , and skeleton legs and tea cups making up lamps.
It’s amazing what you can achieve with a bit of imagination.

I was very impressed with the Durham Cathedral model. At Durham Cathedral for those who don't know.

Lidl have had a number of smaller Lego sets in @£5.99 but this evening I found the Space Shuttle reduced to £4.79. Worth it for the parts alone.

That's not a Shuttle...

THAT's a shuttle!

Different scale and doubt I would have room for it. Plus all those gaps in the wing edges are a bit disturbing given Columbia.
Lego are missing a huge market by not making half size bricks and ones with thinner exposed edges hence allowing for half size versions of their larger sets.

I remember adding bricks to the Durham one when it was being constructed.

No, never been there. From what I read Bury’s model seems to have been inspired by Durham

Forwart stickers, based in Hungary, are offering a range of custom stickers for the new Lego Ideas bike. You can choose from a range of different manufacturers like Cube, Pinarello etc and they are €19 a sheet.

I think they look really great, it's almost tempting, we shall see. I bought a sheet from them for my Lego FW14B, which had the correct livery and they really do make high quality stickers. The only downside is that unlike Lego, their stickers are cut to go across multiple pieces.
