Can you believe it?

So I bought this for Bernard and sent it to him last week:
7904-0000-XX-12-1.jpg

It’s a lego advent calendar, based on their city line, with 24 little sets to make up. The idea is you open one a day from December 1 through 24 to spread the fun throughout the Christmas season. We occasionally had such things (not Lego ones) when we were young and they were a lot of fun.

Anyway I got it in time, packed it up, and sent it priority to make sure it arrived before December 1.

And then he opened every single day immediately. He didn’t even wait until December.

In other words, he flushed the entire idea (and spirit of the gift) out the window 🙂

    Hey I just enjoyed the gift all at once instead of spreading the enjoyment over 24 days.

    I know I’m a day late, but…

    Bernie: Each day, you should rebuild the given model into something else entirely!

    Robert: Definitely not a waste. If you hadn’t bought it and blogged about it, people like me would never have known it existed.

    This has been another community service announcement from…

    Wait until you see what *you* get for Christmas. I trust there’s at least one item you don’t know existed…
