| Lego Technic. 02:54 - Aug 26 with 1897 views | Benters | When I was in Hospital I got talking to a chap in the opposite bed and he was telling me he was a Lego collector. So much so he’s had a loft conversion done on his house and has all his Lego collection up there. I am thinking of buying a fairly decent Lego Technic kit,maybe a big old Truck or F1 car. I am not allowed to do any gardening for 3 -6 months,i can do light pruning after 1 month,not until my Sternum has heeled and it’s driving me nuts.But a lot of my garden I can cut back in March. Thankfully I can walk and spend a fair time mooching around the village green,but you can’t walk forever can you! Does anyone on here have any kits ? |  |

Painting at a big easel, set at close to eye level, standing up, would help you keep good posture. Acrylic paint is a very good starting medium, cheaper and much more forgiving than oils! You could put the word out and see if someone in the village could lend you an easel for the six months as you recover? |
BLACK! My eyes are pies and yours are lies! No I’m crap at painting Models and scenery I’m ok with though. |  |

Last time my brother and I were both at our parents we had the old Lego stuff from our childhood out with nieces and nephews loving it. Have you done jigsaws recently? They can be another good time-filler with a bit of purpose. A bit cheaper than loads of Lego too. |  |

Went out with my son to look at a job, he was driving and went over a railway crossing it didn't do the scar tissue much good a blister formed and ended up back in Papworth with an infection. As an edit this was 5 weeks after leaving hospital, was feeling over confident. [Post edited 26 Aug 9:56]

Is that how you become to be a painter and decorator? |  |

How about a small scale railway layout? Loads of options for building scenery and making/painting stuff without having to properly paint/draw. You can get ones that are half the size or less than Hornby. You wouldn’t need much space and there must be loads of stuff on eBay. A bit more involved though, which could go either way into either addiction or boredom and not finishing it. As an alternative to Lego I keep getting emails from this place for CaDA kits. I don’t know what they’re like though. https://www.jadlamracingmodels |  |
