Not that I've felt any at all to date - lol.<BR/><BR/>Like you I was a Lego fan when I was a child and had loads of the stuff. Loved it! I think it's one of the best kid's toys ever - so much opportunity to be creative and inventive. I used to have two drawers' full of it under my bed and get it out at nighttime to make more wonderful constructions. It's a wonder my eyesight hasn't suffered as a result. Your Lego pressie story is very touching too!<BR/><BR/>I think there's a massive boost from having kids around for Xmas and it definitely makes the whole thing a much more enjoyable occasion...so, enjoy!!Old Cheeserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17871751335676050949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35009574.post-22510080069690633282007-12-13T15:07:00.000+01:002007-12-13T15:07:00.000+01:00Hi Reluctant Blogger, glad you liked the Lego stor...Hi Reluctant Blogger, glad you liked the Lego story.
