I think I really need to re-think my LEGO budget for
next year...

I've got to say if I muttered those words aloud, my wife would likely come at me
with a large blunt object :). But I agree - I need to lay hands on an IR train
and start working out more of this myself as well.

It's those smaller, sharp and pointy objects that I'm worried about actually...
plus I've got a couple confessions yet to make about my other hobby (there are
some more saxophones in this house than she is aware of... ;-) )

But I've got the kids as reinforcements (and in the given case "protective
devices", so to speak). And my wife actually likes to build and play with LEGO
as well, so I'd better just keep the bills out of sight.

Oh well, it will work out somehow - at least I have no need to hurry and buy new
track material - just an IR train and eventually my first NXT (which I was going
to get at some point anyway). There are some MISB sets around that I could sell
to refinance...

(...) Ohh...my wife and I have a deal, I can have as many steam engines as she has animals. (+1, which I had before her!). So, at present I have 2 large engines here. There's a 3rd one that I part own, but it isn't here...hence, it doesn't count. (...) (16 years ago, 28-Dec-07, to lugnet.trains)
