| Lego Technic. 02:54 - Aug 26 with 2647 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]

Hmmm it’s easily done buh. I’ve had my orders on what I can and can’t do,and I will do my best to conform! But I understand how it’s easy to be to confident and just go for it. |  |

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 |  |

Don’t worry I will I’ve got loads of paperwork on the things I can and can’t do. I am walking most days round the green,I’ve cut it down to 5000 steps a day for the time being. I’ve been ordered to keep to the green in case I go wobbly,there are always plenty of people round and also benches to sit on. I pruned some Roses yesterday (light pruning is allowed) and had the sex yesterday (also allowed after a couple of weeks) but taking a less active roll,so I didn’t get dressed up as Batman and no jumping from the top of the wardrobe that kind of thing. Started my Lego Jaws set on Saturday it was raining so a good day for it.Got stuck on the first page for a few minutes then realised the orange bit didn’t go anywhere it was a tool to help put fiddly bits together. This Jaws set has close on 1500 pieces compare that to The Titanic set which has 9090 pieces incredible stuff. Cheers all for the nice messages,cards,and flowers x.😇 |  |

I still have to bend over to do that kind of thing,which isn’t great at the moment. |  |
