I just love the stuff they come up with!!! One of their creations I had to ask if they had instructions as it looked like a proper Lego kit.
I soon realised that Lego kits per piece where outpacing Gold prices.
On Ebay I found that you can buy a mix of random bits: 2Kg for £30!! Having washed and dried them all, the kids were in seventh heaven and subsequently we have Lego in just about ANY place you can imagine - including the dishwasher, my sock draw ... you name it!!!
