We had a fair bit of interest regarding the wooden mudguards (left)

"PerM" is an an-acronym for "Perspektive für Migranten" which is a programme to help migrants integrate and find work in Germany. My colleague on this team is one of the few people I know who has more ideas than me per day; he also has the skill and confidence to make them happen. I happened to say I'd always wanted to make wooden mudguards, the sort of thought which usually has people rolling their eyes, and ten minutes later he'd built a steamer from a few bits of wood, an old saucepan, & some parts from a heating system. That evening the first damp strips of walnut were clamped into a former.

We're selling them at 50€ each if anyone is interested, although postage would be more expensive assuming I can work out how to do it...

That's the most bobble hats I've ever seen together!
 
if i remember it was a way to identify us if we got lost etc , look kid with hat :smile:

We had to do this in Japan when our lads were small: each one got a bandanna when we went out where there were crowds; otherwise they became just three more dark haired kids, or as my dear wife put it; "they all look the same..."

I remember when we visited the UK, I saw a kindergarten out for a trip, where they identified all the kids with large yellow badges; in the shape of a six pointed star. I assume it's a generational thing as well as culture...
