  Not to sound sappy, but finding this Forum is the luckiest I've been.  Between @joel4motion helping me with keychains, @samiam391 helping me complete a collection or two, and consigning some other items, @Legoboy for his truly inspiring antics, and @Pitfall69 for being a pony-sniffing maniac.
  
  

  Pathetic!
  
  Some might be considered lucky in that I have pretty much collated all of the sets I could want for over the past decade, but recently have in fact found that to be a burden.
  
  How I might consider myself lucky is that I’ve made a a few good friends in the process but then I ask how many of them have become a royal pain in the arse.

  Well, the results are in! It was great to read all your responses - I'm quite jealous of some of you!

  This is true, but for all sorts of other and varied reasons.

  This is also 'more' true, if that were a real thing.  Next time, you can dig up a minifigure at Disney.  Maybe the next time you need a surgery, I can sneak in and implant a 1x6 sand green brick in there.

  And it's arrived! Thanks so much @benbacardi !
  
  
  I appear to also have received something with a little more horsepower as well, and some chocolate! Very generous, thank you so much! My youngest daughters horse is looking on, hoping to share those buttons. Alas, they're too big for such a little pony. Also, I want them! I should put in a joke about land speeders making things with four legs nervous...

  Unbelievable! I go to get my daughter from the cinema, and when I return:
  
  Tom said it was the cowboy, my wife said it was the pony. All I know is, it wasn't me!

  Don't be fooled - it was Jek Porkins.
