My Grandpa turned 89 yesterday. I made him this paper spitfire to mark the occasion. He flew planes in his youth.

He's also an illustrator - a wonderful artist, mainly for children's books. He has well over a hundred to his name.

    What is your Grandpa's name? He sounds rad. You're lucky, mine are long long gone.

    His name is Erik Blegvad, he is indeed extremely rad. He has a big white moustache. Might do a post on him in the next day or two.
