#lego
I played with Lego as a kid and loved it, but never actually received a set that only belonged to me. When I grew up, dolls were for girls, Lego for boys...my love of my life now surprised me and for the first time in my life I have my very first set - thank you @paul - love you so much 🥰 ❤️ Never to late for the first one!
Maybe it has something to do with the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, the second #Book of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (#HHGttG) series by #DouglasAdams?
There was a time, when I dearly loved #TerryPratchett and #DouglasAdams, and they will always have a sweet spot in my heart for the many laughs and for all the cultural heritage, they left us.
However: Whenever I now grab one of their #books, their style and language feels terribly outdated and, frankly, boring to me.
@mina I don't quite agree. These two authors plus @neilhimself write stuff that appeal to me no matter how many times I've read it. For Douglas Adams I can somewhat understand as #hhgttg was a bit overplayed (plus #scifi is not my thing) but otoh, the Dirk Gently holistic detective series is a lot more enjoyable and timeless to me.
