New Mannum 2012/2013/2014

It just keeps getting better and better.

Thanks 'Annie', since you are a railway girl perhaps some fresh ideas on features to sit by the railway tracks ?

LT, is the Murray River going to run through the town?

Well, to be truthful it actually runs out in front of the main street and rail line....the real Mannum never had a railway running to it.

Safety signs are on the way for the road working crew, need to find some 2x2 tiles in orange....oops.
Updatiing a.s.a.p.

Finally it took two days......

More to come as usual......keep watching !

damn speed limits. in SA it should be 40km/h the rest of australia manages to cope with 40, yet sth australia seems to be too scared and has it as 25

for the Non- SA people, in SA school crossings, roadworks, etc. etc. have 25kph speed limits. it's ridiculous, you can walk next to your car at that speed, and they are lobbying for that speed in all suburbs.

anyways.. back to the lego; great work!

Yes, Australia....land of the whacky speed limits !

Last photo update for 2012......

Train signal......w-i-p perhaps !

Next Christmas Lights......


Now for a Christmas tale.....a short one !

"What overdrawn ?!"

"Pardon me, can I speak to you about a new overdraft ?"

2013 will see more things happening.....so keep an eye out in 2013 !

To everyone have a safe and MERRY CHRISTMAS from this old tiger, his family and all the minifigs living and working in New Mannum.

Great work, I love the christmas spin off, I simply

Thanks 'FS', I thought since it's tomorrow.....better get into the spirit I guess !

NEWS FLASH........Giant blonde woman destroys parts of New Mannum.......people run away in fear......Batman unavailable !

Today, my wife in one of her many mood swings......sigh......went a little over the edge.....I now must this week rebuild one pub, one hardware store and one supermarket....the latter two totally level and pieces everywhere !
Next task is find somewhere safe to store the 48x48 plates loaded up with everything..........though there might be a silver cloud....I could make some changes to the Mitre 10 or change the position of the supermarket and hardware store.....what does everyone think ?
Keep on watching......because you never know what's going to happen next !

You can look on the bright side and say they weren't guttered by fire which swept some parts of Australia.

I'm thankful that I am safe from all the carnage nevertheless not so the heat of the sun !!!

We all know you will rebuild and recover from this unexpected event

Very true, my structures can be rebuilt......peoples lives are much harder and painful......lets hope the weather eases enough to stop those fires in Tazzie.

Now I have rebuilt these after Cyclone Kathy, but can anyone see the very, very slight changes I have made - one to each store.
Police vehicle will be coming soon.......so keep watching !

I didn't think cyclones came that far south. :P Good to see it all rebuilt again, the shops looking very nice as we've come to expect from you Lightningtiger.

Ha, ha.....yeah crazy blondes eh ?
I'm currently working on a CFS truck......update a.s.a.p......so keep watching !

Oh, yeah here is a w-i-p shot of said CFS truck.....more to come !

A little more work this afternoon on it.....

More to be done to it.......any suggestions for a water pump ?

I''d be more concerned with the driver who is showing early signs of road rage with those hands of the steering wheel

Because I chose the large steering wheel and trying to make 2 minifigs sit more realistic in the cab.....that's why he looks how he looks.
I should have the cab and water pump finished today....next week I'll try the police vehicle and a few weeks after that the ambulance.
Keep watching everyone !

Still the pump and more crew to go......

Keep watching everyone !

Oh, by the way this is my post.

Crew and decals to come next.....most likely early next week......keep watching !

Stripe done and tool boxes/water tank beefed up by one plate in height.
Comments welcome.......keep on watching !

LT, congratulations on 1000 + posts.

You certainly are a legend on this forum.
