Something for the weekend...

 We were at the Lego exhibition, Brick Live, at Wolverhampton Art Gallery with Arthur and Reuben ~


The runes we consulted seemed to say, "Buy more Lego..."


Under instruction from Matthew, and armed with the 'find the Lego fantasy figures' quiz sheet, we also went into the main galleries. Never too soon to start on the culture front after all! Some nice military displays in the India and the Middle East in European Art section of the gallery ~





Some of the labelling was a little on the apologetic, politically correct side, but nothing too woke to upset me...

    1. Sounds like the sort of junk rules Osprey might publish! They could follow it up with Star-Dragoons and Space Dragons, enough misguided pseudo-wargamers might buy it...😉

  2. It looks like there was something for all the boys David…

    All that Lego correctly rearranged would build an impressive castle…

    All the best. Aly
