Simple drawing of a wheelbarrow:

small circle
large V with one side touching the circle
line at an angle

It is simplistic - see example, but would it do?

rumblethump · 11/03/2008 18:34

thanks all for your help, my ds went for whistle as he had one to copy.

i'll no doubt be starting a thread for more help when he comes home with "qu" !
