They had a shop in Windsor that "sold" the machines and people could come in and "try" them - no amusement arcades allowed in Windsor then.
    Windsor eh. Do you reckon legoland is worth a visit ? Still thinking where to take the grandkids for a few days in the summer

      I usually avoid parking next to a 4x4 if possible for fear of getting my luvvly old banger damaged when its doors are opened in the 4 inch gap left between cars. Big cars should pay more in parking fees, banned or perhaps the owners executed. 4x4's should at the very least be road taxed heavily since you can't see what's ahead of them making life more dangerous for pedestrians and other road users

        DEpends on age of grandkids. I reckon legoland great between ages of 2-9. After that they find it a bit tame - try Chessington/Thorpe/Alton.

              Legoland is a full day - thought about staying overnight? I am sure if you google there are hotel packages including lego entry.

                Or you could try Slough Travelodge. Make sure you hand in shoe laces, tie, belt and razor blades on your way in.

                    I thought she was made of stickle bricks not lego. Prince Charles is definitely made of meccano.

                      For Wilsmow's 666th post, it was most disappointing on a biblical scale.

                      Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
