My kid decided that it&#39;s finally time to get rid of toys he doesn&#39;t play with any longer. Does anyone need anything? On a side note: WTF how did this happen? When I was a kid, I was happy to have a stick and stone to play with after I had to walk home from school for 3 hours during constant snowstorms, threatened to be eaten by wolves.

@derthomas how you ask? because you're human! our memory starts fading when we turn twenty or have children, whatever comes first ;)

@derthomas gotta love a kid that loves garbage trucks, as I do. Good taste. 😂

@derthomas The little one here is obsessed by trash collecting truck (Vuilniswagens). So maybe the red/grey truck, though we don’t _need_ it in any way.

@derthomas Sadly, my toy days have long past and given way to an audio and computer addiction... ;>) I shudder to think what the shipping cost to the US would be...

@derthomas Lucky you. You could walk home from school. We weren’t even able to afford feet back then …
