Rich, you have my sympathy re sneaking home big sets. As a young teenager I discovered the repair shop on the way home from school would give me sets left and not collected ... sometimes they worked (I was not very good at repair myself, and not a lot better now) ... but they had to come home on the bus, I had to stagger from the bus stop to our house, and then had to bend double and sneak past the kitchen window to my shed ... if my mum saw me there would be sanctions! Where does this compulsion come from?
