Hi. This is the first LEGO forum I’ve ever joined. I have been lurking for a while now. A friend of mine encouraged me to start building again this year after a very long absence. My collection is limited compared to most, but it is slowly expanding. I built whatever seems to strike me, but lately I’ve been trying castles. Oh, while I am human, I am apparently both concrete and ABS proof that female builders do exist. Nice to be here.

A female fan!

Welcome aboard!

I hope we see you around a lot. While we have several ladies in here, none are prominent posters.

Welcome and congratulations!

Not only have you joined, in my opinion, one of the best websites ever conceived...

...you are also our 400th member**!

WOOHOO! Time to celebrate!

Female lego fans are quite rare so its good to have you and you are lucky being the 400th member, I am about the 395th or somthing like that.

Yes, yes he does. He posted my first complete castle here when I was doubting what I had built. He then showed me the responses and around here. It took me a while to decide to join. But here I am. Oh, he would be Jail (J1A3L5).

Welcome to Classic-Castle. You desert MOC was very impressive introduction. I am glad you decided to join us. I am sure you will find some of us informative, others are funny and the rest...

Well lets just say they are funny too. :wink:

So anyway welcome, Huzza, Huzza and all that. :D

Welcome! :D

I'm glad that you joined. As Anthony said, this is probably one of the most friendliest sites on the web. Your first MOC was pretty good. I hope to see more from you.

Yes, the desert castle is indeed mine. Unfortunately for it, I had limited tan, but I keep adding more pieces, (call it my great quest for tan bricks). Hopefully I will learn a lot here and make the next one even better.

Thank you for the kind words about my little tan creation, the advice and of course the very warm welcome.

Welcome aboard!

CC is home to lots of great stuff, and if you are a lurker you no doubt know this already.

So, are you suggesting that Lady Val, our resident Scottish lass, is "odd"?? :wink: She may have words for you young man.

I'll add my welcome to Bluesecrets (whatever they are), and I too really liked your tan castle. Well done.
