Happy birthday Queenie!

Today Australia celebrates the Queen's Birthday, and so everyone (except me) gets a day off work.

It's certainly one of those miscellaneous public holidays, given that the Queen of England has little bearing on the day-to-day life of the average Australian, and that England has been scrubbed entirely from much of the nation's consciousness (but cheers for exiling the criminals to a place with a superior climate).

Of course, as Australians, we'll take a long weekend for any reason, so who's complaining?

This is all terribly uninteresting.

What is more interesting is the thriving lego community I have stumbled across on Flickr. Almost every search I've undertaken over there has returned at least one photograph rendered in lego. for example, a search for Queen returned the excellent image above. I love lego, so this is awesome. Check it out.
