The main shortfall of The Doodle Notebook is its secondary title: 'How to Waste Time in the Office'. It suggests that making something out of nothing is only worthwhile when it’s on someone else’s time. But it’s delightful anytime. And it’s been dying out since walkabout phones were invented. There’s an online Doodle gallery here, but nothing beats pushing a pen around a piece of paper. Except maybe sculptures made from belly-button fluff.
