"Nothing but the rain"
Bought a toy rubbish truck for #1 and he loves it. He played with it for two hours straight yesterday. It makes some noise and flashes lights, the rear door opens to retrieve the recycling and best part of all is the motorised bin arm that takes the yellow bin and deposits its contents into the truck. He woke at 530 this morning and the first thing he said was “can I play with my rubbish truck”.
Here’s a picture of my Gran Turismo set up. There’s a big tv with home cinema 7.1 sound and my music playing using GT5’s jukebox function (shame it doesn’t run from a NAS drive though). Anyway, here’s my Logitech (their stuff is brilliant) Driving Force Pro wheel attached to the force feedback stabiliser (ironing board).
This is probably my best train set up so far. All pieces used and no funny angles, you can bend the joints a bit to “make” a track fit, but none here!
Now I just need to keep this map handy so I can recreate this when needed.
Here’s what #1 took to nursery today.
Here’s today’s toy that #1 took to nursery.
This had to be added to the communications because it’s just not that often you see one of these beauties. I also like the stock version in Gran Turismo 5.
It doesn’t get better than this! Apart from an airshow or motor race I guess. This morning I’ve been playing playdoh with #1. It’s great. Later we’ll be making rice crispy cakes with chocolate. Such a shame the weekend has to end.
#1 took this lovely P51 Mustang to nursery today.
Someone at nursery told him it was a Spitfire. I was told he put them right on that matter.
This is what #1 took to play with at nursery today.
#1 calls this his Jeff Car. He likes the snake on it and it reminds him of the Jeff Corwin programme that we have seen on TV.
Here’s a picture of a VW Camper Van that #1 and I put together yesterday. He’s very proud of what he made.
