Thanks NewRight, I'll see what I can do with the whole water issue. Hey saberwing, I was going to do target practice, but I was running out of room. I've got all the guns ready. I'm glad you thought it was funny. It was meant to be. Funny rather than 'good'. Oh you your child would definitely get a certificate. I guess I might have got the idea from using HP Lego so much. I was just thinking of what Pirates might do when they aren't aboard ship and I though... "Well, they'd have kids right?" and went from there. That is a good idea, thanks Otters! Maybe off the higher rocks? Or the Helm wall? I'd have to do a brick built one a Cap'n Blackmoor suggests... it's going to get even busier in Pirate School. thanks Captain, you've made some really good points there! I love how everyone is so eager to help in this competition. We need more, just to help our MOCing techniques. Haha! I don't know if you can tell but the 'flesh' monkey's hands are the 'dark flesh' from the new Indy sets. I've always thought they look funny with yellow.

That is just adorable. You've done a really great job, I recognized him immediately. In the Tin-tin books we get his name is "Snowy!"

Do you want your child to be able to protect themselves? We will teach them the best methods of self defense. We will make sure they never get lost at sea. We will teach them creative techniques for burying treasure. Who would think to look under a cobbled street? And you can conveniently mark out an 'X' in coloured stones. They will learn to navigate and man the helm. "No! Not that left! Your other left!" We will teach them to walk the plank without fear. Do you want your child spending all his hard earned gold on ale? No? Well we can teach him how to charm the beer wenches with some cheap perfume or a flower, so he will get all the free ale he can handle. Upon graduating all students receive signed documentation of their qualifications. All these valuable lesson and much more are available now at your local Pirate Training School. Comments are more than welcome.... help me refine my building techniques. Cheers, Iz

I love how they've even managed to fit in a pair of short legs.

This ship looks truly amazing. I can hear sighs of relief all over the world and a renewed appreciation for TLG after all this kerfuffle over the Pirates line ending (?) too soon. What a spectacular surprise!!!

That's it! You're next buddy! And I'll ask complicated questions so you have to talk for aaaages. Mwauhahahaha! :pir-skull: (To tell you the honest truth. I'm surprised anyone else can understand us actually. Especially people with English as their second language.)

Thanks Skipper! It's my pleasure. Anything I can do to help out. It's about time too I think. Hehe! I was told C-P.com would foot the bill for that. Haha! Thanks Bonaparte. I'm glad my voice is not too grating on the nerves. (I'm not so fond of it myself ) Cheers! Aww you're very sweet Henk. I'm not so eager to hear it ... I stumbled over every question. Dangit Phes, I'll just have to open the first 'successful' Pirate Restaurant in Australia. (I have a feeling I'm going to have to narrow that down to Queensland or Brisbane by the time I get onto it.)

There is a 'real' reason why I had to pull out of Windsor. I'm not a flake. I'll be there. Amelie's education fund can wait a year. She is only two.

G'day Captain. You'll find there are quite a few Aussie pirate lovers in here. Where abouts are you from? Don't forget to check out the Aussie Sales thread.

I plan on making it the this Event, and I have no idea what to expect. Except for loads of fun.

Count me in!

Hi There Lego My Mamma, I love your work on BrickBusters. Welcome to Eurobricks.

Welcome bricknave! You seem to have just about the the Lego themes covered. I'm sure you will find plenty of inspiration and useful information on here.

Hmmm.... um... okay???

Awww well that's just silly. At least we'll have two games and a bunch of super sets to remember it by.

Correct me if I'm so off, but... I think having the second Lego Indy game out soon is a good marker that there might be more sets. Like with the HP one and possibly more HP sets in the future.

A video chat would be cool but lets start little here people!!! Hehe! I thought the audio was awesome! It was easy to understand that Aussie twang. But for those who are less fluent in English maybe having it written (transcribed afterward) would be helpful as well. That would be time consuming though. Maybe some one or some ones could volunteer to do it for you???

Happy Birthday Stash2Sixx! Hope you have a super day!!!! Happy Birthday too Milhouse (pretty sure you don't keep up with EB anymore though, but just incase you do, I'll do your washing for you, for a special birthday treat )

I like that idea, what are the dates of the Billund event? If I'm really selfish and put aside money for just me and not Amelie's education I can get the $2,000+ for flights... maybe??? In my dreams.

Gar damn, that be downright disconcertin'. I did nay reckon till 't be too late, tis 9 turns of the hour glass after noon and i be havin' nay spoken 't ou' loud. I think I ortin' ta be made t' walk th' plank. and I t'were really lookin' fore t' today as well.

What, are they crazy??? Cutlass_Iz

Happy Birthday Boys! I hope you all have a marvelous day. Don't get too excited and forget to leave us some cake.

I'd like to add that I'm all for toasting things but you missed out on the best ever toast-able breakfast food, POP TARTS. (maybe isn't not exotic for you but it is a rare treat for me and my dentist)

Thanks CBH, All is not well but it is a very long story. Maybe one day in the future I will be able to join all you crazy AFOLs on your side of the world. But until then I shall try to stay active on here and keep building. Cheers, IZ

Due to reasons beyond my control I have to withdraw my participation from this event. (I will no longer be in the UK in October 2010 at all) I am really sorry, and so very sad that I will be missing out on all the fun. Here's hoping a AUS event will happen soon. Cheers, IZ
