Well, my printer cartridge has run out so that will stop me printing stuff willy-nilly!

I ended up with a load of faintly printed stuff that's no use to anybody.

However, I have found a brilliant use [not my original idea, I copied it] for the wasted paper . . . a 'Magic Book' for my little grandson to draw his pictures in . . .

fold the paper in half

then in half the other way

then in half again so that when you open it all up again you end up with eight rectangles

then fold in half again just the once

then cut from the middle across but stop halfway

then open out and fold in half lengthways

then grasp both ends and move your hands towards each other like you were playing a squeezebox

a bit of clever pressing and it turns into a little book with four pages (eight sides)

even better, it is small enough to fit in the back pocket of your jeans ready for next time you see the little person ;-)
