I got more than a few quizzical looks tracking a parcel around Lancashire via their site. Esp when I (probably a bit louder than planned) questioned why it was at the bottom of the street in question but I stil had 1hr til delivery...

Thanks Russ / Podie for sorting biggrin

Nice to see some sets have been signed for already. The rest are all saying out for delivery - so good news.

Unfortunate for BaronVonVaderham as DPD says they have encountered a delay on his route and delivery may not happen today! Lets all take a few seconds to think of him in these sad times....

On a serious note mate, let me know if they give you any trouble and ill find out whats going on.
Hi Russ, happy to report than Mr Michael from DPD delivered it to my fiancés place at about 10.30 this morning! However I would be grateful if you could all continue your candle light vigil as I'm not getting back there till Friday eve... Also as the mini turned up there the day before I haven't got my mits on that yet either. There must be a support group for people like me...

However I would like to extend a hearty many thanks to you sir, especially as your minions deserted you at zero-hour!

Good job, glad it arrived. No probs on sorting them out myself, I tried to view it as a workout and didn't bother getting the bike out that evening!!

I forget you city boys spend half your day sat on a train. After my whole 15min commute I can crack open a cider and look over the fields!

Yes I found that odd too, had to get lots of tubs as you need to open most of the bags pretty early on.

Got to Page 30ish yesterday smile

Now that's dedication. I cant sit indoors and make LEGO when its 27 degrees outside. I went and had a nap in the sun.

I currently love you (Lego) and hate you (see above) with equal measure.
