I know the feeling. Been there many times and I always had a fallback plan in place like you do now.

Good luck with the upgrade and thanks for the time you are investing in this wonderful community!

I plan to attend

What a hell of a set to review. So big. Definitely not a task for a beginner. Happy to see the awesome job you did with this one VBBN!

Welcome Rich! I wished I was rich too

Welcome to EB! Which is the most expense or rarest minifig you own?

I have no words for this achievement. It’s a masterpiece!!

Solved now

That's an impossible question for me to answer because I like all of those area's. But when it comes to LEGO I do have a preference for those cool Spanish minifigs.

Looking really great Bob. From every angle! I'm a big fan of the engine design.

I refuse to believe this happened. This is fake news

Nice film! Very entertaining!! Did you visit de Battlefield of Waterloo? I was there just a few weeks ago. Great place with some great museums. Sad the wrong side won

Wow, beautiful scenery!! I like how nature is taking over this building.

Wonderful ship! You are a very talented builder!! The overall shape is great. And I love the level of detail and the color scheme.

Yeah, seems there's indeed a problem at peak times (evening time in EU / morning in VS). We are looking into that and are monitoring to pin point the bottleneck. EDIT: Changes have been done. Now let's see if those solve the issue. So far things are looking good.

Being pretty isolated at home for almost a full year due to the Corona restrictions I'm often thinking about the great times we had during the Eurobricks events. It is doubtful if an event will be possible in 2021, but who knows. Maybe a September event might be an option and it certainly can't hurt to dream about it. I have equally good memories of our events in Billund, Windsor & Gunzburg, so I'm neutral to where the next event will be held. Let us know if you have an preference and why.

The ship is still around after 11 years and safely stored. I was showing this old thread to my kids (my son was born 1 year after finishing this ship). My kids would love to play with one of these old ships so I’ll probably take one out of storage soonish. Next weekend I have a reunion with my dear friend Captain Green Hair and I’m sure that will bring back lots of good memories from the time we were building these ships.

For me August is not possible. During July and August the kids are home from school and we already have plans with the family. September could work for me (except for the last weekend of September).

Based on what I read in the press it's very unlikely the event can happen as planned

Well, at least the border between Belgium and The Netherlands is closed. Except for people who really need come into Belgium (cargo trucks and people who work in Belgium).

I’m waiting a bit before booking our room at the legoland village due to the uncertaintly with the Corona virus. Btw, it is probably possible to have breakfast at the village even when staying in Lalandia. If some are interested in this then I can check this.

I'm a real breakfast person, so I'll have breakfast in the Legoland Village like in the past years. I love those pancakes :) I'll book something in the Village together with the Belgians that will be accompanying me.

Steven, Martijn & Danny will also come along to the EB event with me. They all came before to EB events.

Count me in! I'll probably be accompanied by a few more Belgians

Amazing work! You really nailed the shape of the hull. I keep thinking it's probably as difficult to make this in a digital way than doing it with real bricks.
