LEGO Club

Visited a LEGO club in a former WW2 bombsight factory. Viewed complex models, and the nephews built vehicles to race.

Being An Uncle

Lego, breakfast, cycle, ice cream, Lego, Dad arrives to whisk them home, cup of tea, nap. It’s good being an uncle.

This morning, I was tweaking my LEGO derailleur, v1.0, when the sun came out, and the power went out. Time for a run.
