Tensegrity Magic!

Easter II : The Eggs
It seemed a good plan at the time – we’d buy Easter Eggs for the Grandchildren before we went to Colombia and then we’d have them to deliver when we returned. Little did we know …. So, rather than waste them we’re having to eat them ourselves. They’re tasting good, especially when combined with a…
