Simple Life........Model Car Racing

When spare cash is not as readily available for spending on fun, I have seen in myself that you tend to become a little more creative...Jacob (my son) and I have been making a Scalextric track in the spare room and enjoying making scenery, people and even converting some old metal cars from his old toybox. 

With lots of free cash we may have been all the more tempted to go out and buy. 

The rewards for this are really special, time spent with Jacob and that nice feeling of wandering in to the spare room and admiring last nights work whilst cleaning my teeth the following morning!

The following link is a little film of days when things were made at home, albeit in this case I feel it isn't because of the lack of spare money.
