The cat wore a seatbelt and sat in the seat next to him at the front of the bus. Our kids were quite impressed and openmouthed at all his wonderful tales. <br />Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11515607519252675296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2115344.post-6679480955451892592009-11-30T17:46:06.821+10:302009-11-30T17:46:06.821+10:30A few people I've spoken to suggest that maybe...A few people I've spoken to suggest that maybe Tom's stories aren't entirely true. I think they all probably have some element of truth and maybe Tom embellishes more and more as time goes on. One thing is for sure, his tour of his Lego collection is made all the more interesting for his stories.TET (David Arandle)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10017963548130964043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2115344.post-45321814917138891972009-11-22T15:01:30.380+10:302009-11-22T15:01:30.380+10:30Did you also know that Tom has been visited by Di ...Did you also know that Tom has been visited by Di twice and Elvis too? Regardless of his great tales, the lego collection is phenomenal. I saw all these sets i could only dream about when I was younger (and now!). Well worth the visit, the only downer is not really being allowed to explore all the shelves, as he kept us moving and focussed on what he wanted us to see.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2115344.post-17210788113055475782009-01-14T22:53:00.000+10:302009-01-14T22:53:00.000+10:30Tom certainly does have a lot of interesting stori...Tom certainly does have a lot of interesting stories. The only trouble is remembering them all.
