It all started when I was waiting for my hip joint to be sorted @ three years ago and is now grinding to a holt due to "I must have them all by now" sindrome.
Over 180 different ones
It keeps me away from the pub

it's not sad if it makes you happy,
could be worse, could be model trains.

If I was to have a full size train in the garden it would have to be a life size rep of the flying Scotsman.

To answer your original question, i'd give it a 7.5/10 on the sad scale. I guess everyone needs a hobby though.

I`m very upset at 7.5
I thought I was sadder than that !!
The hobby stage was passed a while ago as was the "needing to buy" stage too.
Now it`s "All about The Key Rings" 24/7 .............Where will it end ???
