My favourite Lego piece of recent times, and it still makes me chuckle every time I see it.

Hey Roo,

Nice presentation! I throughly enjoyed your style and humor, very well done. Loved the “Halfway there – Deep Breath” slide, i may have to use that in some of my presentations. :)

Cheers!

Ps. As far as Lego sets go, I was always into the medieval sets, I had the castles and horses, and dungeons, glowing ghosts, all that. Maybe that’s why I enjoy playing RPG’s so much… hmmm…

Where was this speech held?

It was the opening presentation at a strange and eclectic conference in London in which a bunch of us presented our hobbies and interests in a series of short presentations to a warm and receptive audience. It was called Interesting 2008.

There is a vast amount of lego in the loft at my parents’ house, including rather a lot of the old 12V rail system.

It’s waiting. There’s strict orders not to throw any out, or give it away. But for now, I have not the space to indulge.
