| | | | (...) My story is a bit different. I wasn't expecting any Lego for Christmas. My parents have been telling me for months that they don't know what I have, need, or want and that they weren't going to get me any. However, they did continually ask me (...)

My problem is my kids already have an eye for good Lego sets and/or pieces. It's going to be a real war around here in a couple of years. (...) (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)
