I credit (blame) Oli's blog for helping me get started puzzle collecting. That was back when I thought $12 was a lot to spend on a Hanayama. Then I discovered Jerry's, Allard's and Kevin's excellent blogs, and then it was hopeless. I was hooked. Money began to fly all over the world: Germany (Hendrik Haak, Rainer Popp), the Netherlands (Wil Strijbos), Israel (Dan Feldman). Oh, the horror, the horror!

It all started with a bit of Hanayama... And after reading Oli and a few others' blog (big mistake!), found my way into Puzzlemaster and ordered a few goodies from them. After that was some (rather expensive) Mrpuzzle Brian Yong designs. Then found such thing called Revomazes... And ordered pretty much all hat was available (CE and Orange) :shock: Hasn't ever cauculated how much I spent on puzzles... My estimation was unbelievable already.

And so to blame... Oli...
