Re: Brighton Modelworld 2012 - 24-26 February

Say it every year but forget how tiring Brighton Model World can be. Both R2 and Helen liked it, the Lego Westminster Cathedral and Mechano roller coasters were good. The room was the best since I've been going and we had our own private room with en-suite toilet, hopefully Alex will give us the sam...
