Hello from Canada (and Happy Holidays)
« on: December 24, 2010, 14:19:25 »
Hello everyone,

I've been lurking on Playmofriends for a while and finally decided to bite the bullet and join. I was first introduced to PM as a child when we used to visit family in Greece. It was not readily available in Canada then so I sort of lost touch and waited impatiently for my own kids to come. I started buying Playmobil for my 3 year old in July while at the Funpark in West Palm Beach. He has a very serious pirate obsession and has not put down his PM in the last 6 months.  In that time we (I?) have managed to accumulate some serious PM some of which will only be opened tomorrow. While I don't consider myself a collector I find myself saying things like "We don't have that . . .".  Glad to be here and looking forward to some fruitful PM converstations.

BTW a special Kala Xristougenia to the gang in Greece

Hello and  :welcome: from Louisiana! Bill's right, it's ok to just enjoy playing with playmobil, no matter how old you are. When I first went back to collecting as an adult, I was embarrassed and tried to hide it, but now I just go with it.  ;D
 Having a child, you have a perfect excuse!

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.
