Since Xmas already, I was ready to make a break for freedom after 3 weeks!
Airfix might be good idea – of course based on the proviso that craning over a load of glue or handling sharp knifes isn’t at odds with their condition.
Personally, Hospital Time is slow and gives you far too much time to think you’ll take anything to melt away a few hours till next feeding time – I had a laptop, headphones and a pile of DVD’s – more DVD’s was always a great gift because the little shop just sold knackered old ex-lovefilm discs for about 3 times what they cost new in supermarkets.
I would have loved to read too, but I had both arms in casts so couldn’t hold a book for long – but otherwise they’d been great – a film might only last 2 hours – you can read a book for days.
