Born on June 13

Gemini

When you try something just to see what happens, the result is usually a new skill, a good story and a problem solved.

Their spare room doubles as a workshop, full of clever things in progress: a lamp made from a colander, a bird feeder with a roof that opens, a shelf that folds into a desk.

What sets them apart is the follow-through. Born on the 13th, they see an idea all the way to a working version, and a snag only makes them keener to get it right.

They love a problem with no obvious answer, so bring them yours. They’ll turn it into a plan, keep you laughing along the way and hand back something that works.
