Ministeck

My oldest friend commented on one of my blogs on Brezhnev, that Leonid's breastful of medals looks just like that 70ies children's "thing with the small bits of plastic that you lay pictures with on a white little board", and of course he meant Ministeck! Yes! Ministeck! I had forgottten about wonderful Ministeck, but it all came back. The long hours of nittygritty work with these frustratingly small pieces. The warming satisfaction of the result to show to mom and dad. God how many hours and days did I spent with Ministeck. Loved that stuff as a kid. Melancholy strikes me down!
