Doodab's tip of the day

Never promise a child an origami dinosaur.
I wouldn't promise the kid a stegasaurus though - That could get tricky.
I hope this child is easily pleased - Paper dinosaurs aren't exactly the latest word in exciting special effects

The Little Prince: Chapter 2

My son is blind so I could simply screw up the paper and tell him that all dinosaurs were round balls, just like screwed up paper. A bit like planes and busses in that respect. To him I am the king of Origami becuase I can make anything!Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.
I preferred version 1!Comment
