Hello everyone,

my name is Rodinal and in late 2008 I stumbled out of my personal Dark Age.

Like many other members here, the cause of my enlightment is my daughter, who recently turned 5 and for christmas received her first Red Bucket. I started helping her in building her first little houses, and found myself enjoying it just like when I was a kid.

After a few days my wife reminded me that, when we married, she put a big box of her old LEGO in the attic "for the kids when they'll be older": when I took the box down, you can only imagine my surprise when I found several of the sets from 1978 and 1979 Space in good condition, and we spent four evenings rebuilding 928, 924, 6970, 6927 and other sets from our lost past: inside the box there were two idea books, too, 6000 and 7777, that made me remember how funny was building with the old Techinc pieces.

So I decided to take a look at the new Technic studless design, and bought the little 8290 Mini Forklift (working in the logistics sector, it was almost a forced choice for me :classic: )... and it was the beginning of the end: by the first days of 2009 I acquired the 8297 Off Roader, other smaller sets, and now I'm actively seeking older interesting sets.

I found Eurobricks, an interesting place to share opinions and stories, and finally I registered today.

:classic:

Seems you got a wife and a hidden Lego treasure! That must have have been quite a surprise.

Welcome at Eurobricks! I just love Italy as I'll be spending my holidays in Tuscany this year :-)

By the way, welcome to EB
