KINGDOMS Day 17 - Brew-dolph The Red Nosed Rein-beer



What's hiding behind that window? What is that 17 not telling us?


Ah, a nice healthy beverage!  It's not the first day of Christmas yet, but I'm sure Bob and Doug would still be pleased!


Quickly, before any spills out onto the snow!


Ah, the keg is safe!


And now, time for the Good Sir Knight to console himself with a brew, after his many failed adventures...

CITY Day 17 - Dirty After Sleeping in a Manger? LEGO has the solution!



Why does it always snow on me? Is it because I skated on Day 17?


Ooh! A LEGO shower! I guess it's for when you take your LEGO blocks outside and they get dirty!


Oops! When I spilled the pieces, I knocked mom off of the couch!!

Now my LEGO can be nice and clean!


Okay, go away, time for mom to have a shower - no peeking!

KINGDOMS Day 16 - 8 Maidens Flirting


OPEN THE GATE! NUMBER 16 IS NOW EXITING THE CASTLE!


Alright, alright, no need to yell, 'Narration-From-First-Image' - it's only a maiden.


This maiden is a wreck - she has completely fallen apart!


Ah much better - and she passes every one of the LEGO female criteria I set on Day 6, as well as the added point from Day 7.


Oh, she has stumbled upon our Good Sir Knight, still lying on the ground after his spar with the training dummy!


She calls to him with an offer to help him up.


And with an outstretched arm, she helps the Good Sir Knight back on his feet.


Do we possibly have a match made in LEGO heaven here?


Oh no! Looks like she was more impressed with the training dummy's fighting calibre!


Well, to the victor go the spoils! Another sad defeat for the Good Sir Knight.


 

 The whole scene now after 16 days - will the Good Sir Knight ever get his comeuppance?

CITY Day 16 - Go Rest on Red-Bricked Chesterfields In My LEGO Display


Hey Day 16, whatcha' hauling!?


Special delivery, red couch!


Hrmm... judging by the assembly required, it must be an IKEA couch...


Oooh, looks sooo tempting to lie down on!



Ah! Couldn't resist the sweet, bumpy coziness I bet!


 Only 8 more doors to open!

KINGDOMS Day 15 - A Spar, A Spar, Fighting in the Night


The door to the wizards tower has Day 15.


And there is a sparring dummy for the knight!


Not a dummy yet, you dummy!



Voila!


Test it out, good sir knight!


Oh, too hard, you knocked the dummy right-round!

Doors opening and opening and opening!

CITY Day 15 - Christmas Chair-ity


 Door number 15, open sesame!


 Oooh, a table, lamp, and two chairs.


 Pieces, ASSEMBLE!
 

 Ah, nice work pieces!


 Loaf down, mom's ready to eat!


Progress!

KINGDOMS Day 14 - Whoso Pulleth out this LEGO Sword of this LEGO Stone and Anvil is Rightwise LEGO King, Born of Legoland


I know it isn't right to go peeping into people's houses... but there is LEGO waiting!


Why! It's the Sword in the Stone! 


..Er, too many swords for one stone!


Tada! The sword that will determine the next King of Legoland!


Ooh, looks like the good knight has decided to take a stab at it!

He approaches the sword, ready to test his destiny!


PULL WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT!


Exhausted, the knight is unsuccessful in removing the sword.

What does the sword in the stone have to do with Christmas?  Well, one legend has it that King Arthur himself removed the sword from the stone on Christmas day!


The set goes on!
