It has been suggested that Mecanno is introduced into schools to encourage girls to become interested in Engineering.

My youngest is 18 but we supply child minding and after school care.
A couple of weeks ago there was a 6 year old girl looking bored in our house.
I dragged out the Meccano set, showed her how to put things together and she then made a Meccano chicken that had flapping wings and moving legs.
I was impressed, a future engineer in the making.

We had Lego and Meccano but they got overtaken (in terms of use) by Airfix, Heller, Tamiya and so on. I don't think 10 years' exposure to Humbrol paint, turpentine thinners and polystyrene glue did me any harm. (manic grin)

Eccles...I was not aware I am "making a meal" out of anything. This was on the BBC news website this morning, and I thought it might be of interest to some other people, which has proven to be the case.
Not sure why you want to know my age, but I have given a enough clues in the past.
You can look forward to me "making a meal" out of other things in the future, as I think fit.

I am indebted to Stuey, for stirring my memory of Bayco Building Kits !
