Born on September 4
Virgo
You build the bookshelf yourself, measure twice and make it look effortless. Hard work, cheerfully done.
Their ladder has been lent to half the street, usually with them at the bottom of it, holding it steady and offering a running commentary that keeps everyone laughing.
A whole project can rest on someone born on the 4th: honest about what will work, cheerful about the hard graft and as practical with plans as with their hands.
Weekend jobs with them have a rhythm: dust sheets down early, paint stirred, the radio on, and a dry joke ready for the first drip on the floor.
