Favorite LEGO toys/themes: Classic space and castle, Star Wars.

My fascination with LEGO began... When I was about 3 or 4.

I once built... A spaceship more than a metre long with a plush detailed interior, a motorised R2-D2 (in the 1980s) - oh and a K-9 too, a TARDIS control room with moving console and blinking lights, a complete Empire Strikes Back diorama, Helm's Deep gatehouse and courtyard...

Someday I will build... A life-size lego dalek would be cool, in the meantime I'll settle for a small army.

LEGO is great because... There's a certain kind of creativity which only thrives on restriction. Making as detailed as possible a depiction of something real or imagined limited only by one's available Lego pieces and skill is a true joy.

LEGO fans are great because... They presumably understand what I wrote above!


My favorite Non-LEGO Toys: Computers and cameras.

My favorite Hobbies & Interests: Doctor Who, Science Fiction, Fantasy Role Playing.

My favorite Foods: Pizza, Schitzel, Home made icecream

My favorite Movies & TV: Doctor Who, LOTR, Star Wars (Classic Trilogy), Buffy.

My favorite Artists: M.C. Escher

My favorite Music: Movie Soundtracks mainly.

My favorite Pets & Animals: Frogs.


Words which best describe me: There's no point in being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes.


Rules I try to live by:
  1. Do unto others as they would have you do unto them.
  2. Expect the worst, hope for the best and ideally be pleasantly surprised.
  3. Giving should be its own reward.
