    I know it's amazing, even the little animals sets, how they design them all... Crazy!
    There is a list of sets due out next year. The animal ones are so varied! Tiger, orangutan, penguins... The animals are awesome fun! So quick to put together. And so much creativity from the little person as they interact....

    Might need to use the computer & setup a lego album... Who is willing to share pics of creations?
    Both by the book and free play? Lol!

    Dolphin cruiser is awesome. Has things on the bottom so it slides on carpet more easily. Dd loves it. Often has heaps of people below deck. Don't know if I want to know what shenanigans they're getting up to! Lol
    My DH has his Lego pirate ship from when he was a kid set up in his office. It has a secret hatch and whenever I'm in there I put some pirates into naughty positions.

    We gave our best man some Lego as a thankyou gift, and we often give small kits as birthday gifts. It always goes down well. So definitely ask for it ZF!

    My kids are still at the duplicate stage, but there's a decent amount of it. We have two different farm sets, the shop set, base board, and extra people ("pee-dool") that my mum found on fishpond.

    We are. Using my friends little boy Star Wars lego for his birthday. He is apparently Star Wars mad so were getting a set, assembling it, and using it as his cake topper. He apparently only has duplo at the moment and I figure at five it won't hurt him to get bg boy lego. His mum took my suggestion and is running with it and suggesting lego to everyone for him lol


    I'm researching lego party ideas. Still 8 months or something til dd has her next birthday, but I like to have ideas in advance lol...

    BG I've pinned a few lego party ideas on Pinterest for you
    Now who is the enabler! Lol!

    Wish it was DD's birthday already... Lol!
    Think my friends present might come early so that means a new lego
    (I'm organising said present, is it evil to go buy it and pop it in our letter box early?)

    Pinterest is very dangerous BG. I can get lost on there for hours and I really don't have hours to spare. So I generally try to avoid it unless I'm looking for something in particular. DS wants a batman birthday party so I have been getting lots of ideas for that on there. Maybe I could do a lego batman party lol.

    I got one from the shop BG mentioned earlier - bricks to the world. I just had a look on ebay & found them cheaper with free postage from the UK I must stop looking

    You can find a lot of stuff on eBay. We have bought some obsolete stuff from there. And sets that are hard to get. I tend to compare a lot with prices. Must admit I do prefer to shop locally though. And for me, bricks to the world is still quite local (local enough to order by 2pm today and have items before 8am tomorrow!)

    I was a good girl today. Went to the local Lego shop to layby advent calendar and only put that on layby. No impulse buys lol
    I may have discussed loot bag options for dds birthday next year. And simpsons Lego. And Disney princess Legos that are coming out next year...

    Well done BG! I got something delivered today. I ordered two things yesterday so I'm not sure which it is. I'm at work though so I can't pick it up until tomorrow. I was tempted to go home at lunchtime to get it but I had already used most of my lunchbreak for something else. Doh!

    OMG Simpsons lego! DS will be beside himself lol.

    From what I've read it will start just with the mini figures as maybe the house and a Bart set. Then things like the tavern (which is very unusual for Lego cos they don't usually do alcohol related items), and others like that.
