Collectable Cards

It seems a universal tendency for little boys to collect cards/stickers with popular motifs attached to them. In my day it was only footballists, but nowadays you can also get Pokemon, Bakugan and Moshi Monsters (amongst many others). Sam has settled on the last one at the moment. Normally this would be an expensive undertaking, trying to complete the set one random pack at a time. Fortunately nowadays eBay can provide a full set for a few pounds. Some might think this takes away most of the fun of collecting. Fortunately Sam’s desire for instant gratification overwhelms any such objections, so everyone is happy. Except when we have to have all the monsters explained to us.
