Unknown if it's normal, but he has a carreer in structural engineering without a doubt

you know that conservatory and extension you and the missus have been talking about?

Well you don't need to pay any polish labourers to build it now.

did you let him carry on? I wonder if he would have made a pyramid? Was he upset when you dragged him away?

I used to do stuff like this whe i was a kid, a box of lego and an extra strong mint every half hour I would be happy all day.

He was happy to leave it as I'd promised him a look a big ship. We took him to see the Turbinia and he was happy enough!

Better money from architecture than engineering.

Very neat for a 3 year old.

I bought a big bag of Lego from a charity shop for £3 yesterday for my grandkids to play with, bargain as it had lots of wheels in and I haven't got many left.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
