I used to sit and make random models...
... whilst my dad used to actually follow the book you were given with the lego.

I was 4. He was 32.

He made me destroy countless models, all so he could build the ones in the book.

I got my own back though, we went to Legoland when I was about 6 years old on a coach trip with most of his workforce, and there kids.In the place where you make models I started to make one of my own random ones. One of the helpers came over and asked why I didn't make one of the ones in the book, and I said very loudly in front of everyone, "Daddy never lets me. He always makes the models out of the book, and makes me take apart my ones to get the right pieces."

Funnily enough, a few months later at christmas, Mom bought us seperate, identical sets of Lego Technic. :-D
