Hi,
Just for the record.
I was born Robin Jones.
I married Tina Sayce
Tina was the last Sayce in her family so we decided to hyphenate.
Hence Sayce-Jones. You wouldn't believe the number of variations we get when
we say this over the phone.
As for the number of postings.
I'm married with two young children. That about sums it up. I'm in the
process of modelling my current sets, or rather my son's sets, well the wife
thinks I got them for him ;-)so there may be one or two more posts to come.
I just don't have the time to get too involved but I just love Lego and
Lugnet etc. While I type this I'm back in Arjeplog, Sweden on vehicle test.
This is where I saw the "Lugnet" school I reported last year. Doesn't time fly.
Total Sayce-Jones posts = 24 + 1
