This was a really satisfying build. Had worried it would be a bit boring.

Have you seen that there is a big reveal at midday of a new set "to see & hear". Any ideas?

Ooh! Hadn't heard about this. I hope it's not some phone / video / filmmaking type one - they tried that with - name escapes me - and it didn't really pick up.

I have to say it….. we have no more room for Lego…!! DH says we should only buy sets that have a deep meaning for us…. I mean…. All the sets Have a deep meaning to me haha

We’re in the same boat. Though, as much as I love LEGO, I have to be very selective in the sets that I buy. I have to really love a set to buy it!

I have spent all afternoon deciding whether to buy the Notre Dame Cathedral. Argos have it for £150 instead of £200. I have room if I put the Jurassic Park breakout in the spare room, they're not so much displayed in there as stored although you can see them all.
I have 8 biggish sets in the living room and 3 vases of flowers but if it's an obsession you just have to do it.
I might as well order it because if I leave it too long they'll sell out and then i'll regret it.

Same problem here. I really want the micro Diagon Alley but I literally have nowhere to put it…unless I move my son out to the garden shed 😂

I was in Smyth’s yesterday and saw the Home Alone house, so much detail. Old man Marley outside with his shovel and bin, the tree house, Vince and Marv in their van and even the red hot door knob. Doesn’t anybody have it?!

Me! We got it when it was first released and my son and I built it as an advent calendar as there are 24 bags!

Whoever found the 25% off at Tesco - does it work online with their “Marketplace” buys? I’m rarely in a Tesco!

Saw this online, modification of the Books are my Bag (?) GWP. Love it.
