- Hello, John. Oh,
- You've made the jigsaw for blind children with the bleeper.
- When they put a piece in correctly, that's right.
- OK. Let's have a look at the form. Right, thanks.
- I've never filled in one of these before, so...

- So, name of designers.
- Well, Anne helped me with some of the electronics work.
- Then you must put her name in as well.
- Right. Anne Ray. Sorry, it's A-double-N-E
- And her surname is spelt R-E-A. Good start.
- OK. R-E-A. And age is easy. You're both 16.
- What have you called the design? Keep it short.
- What about jigsaw puzzle design for visually handicapped?

- That'll do. OK. Right now, size of equipment?

- Brilliant. Now, what do they mean by other comments?
- Ah, it's just a chance for you to say

- Well, we'd really like help with making plastic instead of wooden pieces.
- Well, put something like, need help to make plastic pieces.

- Well, that's fine then. Just put that.
- And the last bit is, when will you send the equipment?
