Bayko

It was my pal S's last day (she's away now on the train back to London) so we went into town to see the new museum in Chambers Street. It is excellent - well worth the long wait while they did it up. Spent a long time in the Egyptian room, then went downstairs to the 'social history' section.

I had Bayko as a child and built up the set over many birthdays with converter kits. You construct houses with rods, bricks, windows etc. Clearly whoever put this one together was not following a plan. The brick rods are too long and the roof is too small. I was itching to get my hands on it and construct a proper house!!
