Oh, bugger all that, I'm just gonna part with 21.99 and get me a Ferrari!
:)


NLS?

NLS = Non-Lego-Spouse

It turns out I only have 458 points, and my local shop had only the 2537
raft set. So I used 198 points to get two. They didn't have the ferraris :-(


The Shell garage I was in this morning only had rafts too, so I think that
it's 'this weeks' small model.

I will just have to buy my petrol every 2-3 days instead!


They had Ferrari's so I picked one up this morning, great looking model, Lots
of good parts, some Technic bits etc.

... ->!thinks!<- ... the NLS will never notice another one... ;-)

Just by looking at it, (still in the Polybags) it seems to good value for the
money. The Pause list shows an unofficial parts count of 579 which makes the
price about 3.7p per element, compared to a normal RRP for Team/Technic stuff
of about 10-12p or usual 'reduced' prices of about half that.

er, Does anyone else use such calculations or am I _really_ sad?
