Stick Inducted into the Toy Hall of Fame



I love this. I am going to the Kids Online (un)Conference next week and my new theme is going to be the simplicity of found objects as the ultimate in entertainment. I guess we adults over think things. We certainly never did as children.

Hey Amy, thanks for the welcome. At the moment I am at a bit of a loose end. I also work as a full time Engineer and this has taken over for now but I am still open to offers all the time. My partner works as a full time Freelance Mod so I can keep an eye on the market so to speak.
