Coping with public and private transport since 2001
And yet again, after a rather weird 2020, 2021 was not much different either. This year 2021: No additions to our family Still the two ceiling lamps to go… 100% WFH (with the ULTIMATE one-cable setup!) Weight equilibrium even without much sports going on, so I’ve got that going for me. Let’s hope we can start doing more things soon!

To say 2020 has been an interesting year is quite the understatement. 2020 has know it’s fair share of highs and lows for me. Not only has it been the first time in my life I’ve lived through a global pandemic, it also was the year our second child was born. Both are guaranteeing quite some impact on our lives,

This year, a whole lot of great sets were released, so I delved deep into my pockets and found just enough to dash out waving bills to buy myself three of them. 🙂 Yes, I am spoiled to the bone over here! 42053-1: Volvo EW160E 42054-1: CLAAS XERION 5000 TRAC VC 42055-1:

A new year has nearly come to an end, which inevitably means new Christmas presents were to be found under the celebratory tree. The kind folks at Lego have created two more lovely sets of Lego Technic, and both have come to my house. Even gift wrapped! I’m particularly looking forward to 42043, which has the first implementation of the

Another year, and yet again I have treated myself to a couple of sets of Lego. This year, the two largest 2013-models: 42008 and 42009! I’m afraid they’ll have to wait for my return in January. 😉 42008 – Service Truck 42008 – Crane Truck with Semi-trailer (B-model) 42009 – Mobile Crane MK II 42009 – Reach Stacker (B-model)
Continue readingThis year the floor beneath our Christmas tree has been riddled with presents, many more than last year. I don’t know why, but the festivities spurred an unknown generosity among the both of us. Therefore, this year brought me not one but two sets of Lego! I can thank my GF for both the 8297 and the magnificent 8258. Below

No matter how hard I try. We kind of figured it would happen some day, as the system was built in back in 1992, and wih an average lifespan of about 15 years, ours
Continue readingOn a very sunny Saturday morning, we set out for Alphen a/d Rijn to spend out day in the bird park Avifauna. Because of a very sturdy navigator, I’ve seen all small villages between Rotterdam and Alphen a/d Rijn, but we managed to get there nevertheless. 🙂 PICS!
Continue readingYay! It’s my birthday today (I’m turning 25 this year), and I already got some presents. As you might know by now, I’m a Lego-addict, and I’ve got a new present to add to my collection: the 8294! It’s an excavator, and it fits nicely with the other pieces in the collection. 🙂 (And yes, I’m already scavenging for the
Continue readingYeah, we’ve been to this zoo before, and will very likely go there hereafter. We’ve got a year-pass 🙂 I’m considering it to be the nicest zoo in The Netherlands, closely followed by Burger’s Zoo. Blijdorp however rocks my boat. End of long post. 🙂 And today, I went again!
