If you’ve been wondering why I’ve been quiet (ok, silent) on here for the past week it’s because I’ve been on a little holiday. A self imposed Twitter ban ensured I could concentrate on relaxing and enjoying family time, and the delights of Amsterdam (no, not *those* delights)

@JanWues@markwoodland Overpriced?
The cheapest sets in 1985 were around £2.50. Adjusted for inflation, the cheapest sets on sale today are the same price (£6.99).
The competition in the younger age group is Xbox/Playstation, not other toys. And yet they still made nearly £2billion profit last year
@timoldland Popping up from obscurity to tell you a fun fact.
The chap who designed the Lego Optimus was working on their Minecraft range. Lego realised he used to work on Transformers for Hasbro and pulled him from that to design Prime 😁
@MotoNutJob I was always fond of the Kangoo Trekka.
I have an unnecessary desire to stick the engine from a Megane RS under the bonnet of one for shits & giggles (and probably a lot of mechanical/electrical woe).
