What are those folded paper things called - four little connected pyramids which you move with the tips of your fingers, and having counted out answers to questions you open a flap to reveal the consequences?
Yes, that's it. Funnily enough I just did the right kind of Google search to find a design to make one. I've also seen the model called a salt cellar, but it's the fortune telling element I wanted.
Actually that design (http://origami.kvi.nl/models/toys/fortune/index.htm) doesn't quite function as I remember, that's the name. Tried it as I remembered it (fold corners to central point, turn over and do the same, stick fingers in pockets and fiddle) is closer.

Still, it was the name I was after.
