Day 2, 15/02/2013:
Working out where to build the Lego City city wasn’t too hard to figure out, given there were really only 3 possible locations:
– in my bedroom… somewhere
– in the second room
– the garage
I decided against being like some of my inconsiderate fellow unit occupants and leaving my car in visitor parking to make room in the garage for the city. Plus I don’t want cockroaches and other icky insects unlawfully taking up residence.
Whilst my bedroom is the larger room, it’s also just got no space whatsoever, being dominated by a queen size bed.
So, considering I was already building Lego in the second room, and the second room was just being used as a dumping ground for stuff (garage is/was too far away, being downstairs’n’all :P), I decided what the hell: the location for Lego city will be in my second room. Since I’ve moved in 4 years ago, it’s been purely a storage room:
My room before cleaning it up
I spent a week or two bit by bit either throwing things out (goodbye primary school books!), relocating them down the garage (goodbye useless oil heater!) or giving some things to the Salvo’s (which made me feel good :)).
So after cleaning out the room, here’s where the Lego city will be:
My room after cleaning it up
With the floor empty, there’s still more room for tables (probably 2 or 3), just the small dimensions means that there’ll be compromises to be had :/. Hopefully it can accommodate next year’s Lego City sets and the year after. Or at the very least accommodate the following:
My Lego Todo list
I’ve already started planning out the table space and will post what the current version is looking like; swear everytime I think I’m done, I notice something and end up doing a massive re-planning…
