Dpd notification received smile

Threw me slightly, it says it's coming from hair skin beauty! LOL
That's what my DPD email said as well.

Anyway now it's on it's way have to figure out how to hide it at home.

I'm guessing its not in a small box.....
That's the business run by "Mrs Russy" - in other words, you can buy Lego and get her some nice stuff too.

I'm sure Russ would do you a deal!

The man's going to be living in a mansion at this rate hehe

I guess it's true! F1 cars do have enough downforce to drive on a vertical wall!

Ventured into the hell on a Sunday which is Toys R Us as I want the motor set to go with the Le Mans car that I get tomorrow thanks to Russy.

I forgot to order the motor set when I placed m order for the car.

Noticed that amongst all the Lego sets they didn't have any Technic stuff anywhere. Not even the motor.

So I asked the toy department 'manager' bint why they didn't have any Techinc on the shelves.

Her response?

'There is not much need anywhere for the Technic range so we no longer stock it'!!!!

FFS. Idiots.

Thanks Podie. Already noticed that one however I can't understand why ToysrUs no longer sell Technic.

Numpties.

Agreed - especially as they used to have TRU exclusives!

Looks like my delivery driver is in the river...



Might have to pop round and tow him out for my Lego.

Thanks Russ! Now I need to convince myself to keep working this afternoon, I don't think my boss would appreciate it if I started building it on my desk...
