train guys how many of us have daughters?

[Tom The Brat]

Well, at least they don't argue over that[:-,]

No daughters but 5 granddaughters and they are unanimous, no interest at all.

I have 3 daughters. When they were small and still living with me, they use to watch them go around the Christmast tree, and even help me set them up every year. Then my ex and I seperated and divorced, the kids grew up and had kids of their own. Now, I even mention that I am getting the grandkids trains, and they all look at me and say, "Not in this house, you aren't" But, time will tell. All my grandkids are going to get trains and my daughters aren't going to say too many things about it. I'll just give them as presents at Christmas. More than one way to skin a cat, lol

Just ask them " Trains or drums, your choice?" i'm sure they'll pick trains[:D]

And remind them "neither" was not one of the options!

TJ,
Di wants to know if that isn't about the size of Monopoly money?

[tangerine-jack]

Don't be a cheapskate! Make that a 1:12 $20.00!!! I said LARGE contributions! What would I tell the girls if I brought home some puny little 1:29 money? You trying to get me in trouble?[}:)][(-D]

Guess I'll have to play with my copy machine and see if I can't make a 1:29 $20.00 bill for you!

cbj great idea for tj!
bob you want to be in charge of collecting!

[tangerine-jack]

Sure, Bob. I think everybody on this forum should send me a commemorative car or loco, along with large monetary gifts![swg]

[Capt Bob Johnson]

OK, TJ

Thought I'd get a rise out of you with that one! Does that mean that we have to get some of the guys to chip in and design a special wedding flatcar? You know, have the wedding party there on the flatcar with the 1 disinterested one playing with her barbies over in the corner?

3 daughters, only the younger 2 like trains.

[Capt Bob Johnson]

I noticed that Jack was really very non committal in his answer!
was that 4 out of 5 are interested?
4 out of 5 think they're boring?
1 out of 5 is interested cause she's the one he's marrying?

[Anonymous]

Four- 20, 18,12, and 9. The youngest has an intrest the other just think the few things i've built are cool. However the oldest thinks a garden RR in the front yard would be embarasing. I told her by the time I made it that far it wouldn't matter anyway because she wouldn't be residing here then.

[ghelman]

3 daughters (all grown now). For them, trains are "oh thats nice". But no actual interest.

[Anonymous]

[Tom The Brat]

Daughters? Nope. Only sons!

[wchasr]

Steve,
As I'm sure you remember I've got 2 daughters, ages 1 and 3 (tomorrow) and they love the train stuff they have! Right now there is very few toys that are clear favorites. I do expect that to change and being somewhat selfi***hat's Ok too if they don't choose the trains.
