Ooh, can't wait to see your aquarium, Tim! That's a project I've had in the back of my mind, but I haven't ever really thought it through. My terrarium and restaurant both take priority right now. And after that I want to work on a complex for my polar bear, seal, and penguin exhibits that allows overhead and underwater viewing, but that will be a huge project!

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

There are 3 or 4 new types of cows coming for the Alpine theme next year it looks like.
I have been collecting parts for an Aquarium custom for a couple of years, maybe after Halloween I can get to that project.

I love the idea of a monorail.

They really need to do a British Bobby for the Fi?ures series, or a Special Plus with a Bobby and the phone booth - or better yet a Police Box. I wonder if the Police Box is copyrighted? A Playmo one would be a huge seller to Dr Who fans.

cool ideas!!

but what's a police box?  :-[

I know what a fire call box is and I have a friend who has some from San Fransisco. The fire call box was just a metal box in neighborhoods that had a phone in them for calling the station.

Are the police boxes the same thing?
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

This is a preserved police box in Scarobough where I live:

Here is further information on them:

The ones in S.F. were a bit different but the same concept. They were installed in 1910 and some claim they are still in and around the city. I did not know but they were double sided, Police on one side and Fire on the other.

A generic police box can't be copyrighted because it pre-exists the show. I prefer the red phone booths though.

I would like to see some western/ Mexican style buildings, the white ones with wooden roofs.  A spanish mission type building as well.

I love that idea 8} I want a Spanish mission now. It could look like the Alamo. Hmmm, dare I say Mexican army?
