Forever toy, but it's not "Legos"
Yup, I loved it in the 60's and 70's and now my son plays with LEGO, and what's great, is that the bricks that I had in the 60's fits perfectly with the bricks etc., that you can buy now!
However... Does anyone remember the thread about pet peeves?...
Here is an e-mail I got from LEGO themselves after I wanted clariffication following a LEGO Charity "Re build a house" competition at a local Library following the Irene disaster in a neighbouring town :
Thank you for your interest in LEGO® brand toys. We are always delighted to
hear from a loyal LEGO enthusiast!
We here at the LEGO group always use the word LEGO with capital letters, and only as an adjective not a noun. For example, you can write "Model built with LEGO bricks" but not "Model built with Legos". You are absolutely correct in your use of the trademark. Thanks for helping to spread the word!
If you'd like to find out more about our rules, you can always go to

Thank you again for contacting us. If you have any further questions, please
feel free to reply to this email or call one of our friendly customer care
