Lego shoveling money into...?

 

  • Lego shoveling money into...?

    Posted by Huw, 31 Aug 2012 04:14. Filed under Miscellaneous.

    That strange headline is Google's translation of the title of an article published today on the Danish site Jyllands-Posten. 'Lego skovler penge ind'. I think it means 'LEGO is making loads of money' :-)

    The jist of the article, courtesy of Google translate, is that despite difficult economic times, LEGO continues to increase its profit and that LEGO Friends has been a huge success, with sales of the range more than double their initial expectations.

    Read it for yourself, through Google Translate. (thanks icey117)

I'm told that "Lego shovels in money" is more accurate.

No, Paul - it's us that are shovelling money...into the LEGO coffers.

Thanks especially to Friends
