Murphy Jnr 10 #13 Posted December 19, 2011 I made a retort earlier but it has gone-it was a disguised expletive. You shoulda' used 'W's instead of X's they never would have spotted it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Mecky 10 #16 Posted December 19, 2011 Q. Can you read upside down? A. Yes, it says upside down. A. Never tried it, I assume all my blood would rush to my head and I'll pass out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
PeteMorris 10 #17 Posted December 19, 2011 I have a strange habit of reading things backwards to see if they make any sense. Just an odd habit I've developed over the years. I don't mean reading sentences backwords, but individual words. The one that tickles me most 'upto now'.

AJ sheffield 11 #22 Posted December 19, 2011 I can read upside dopwn after years of reading contracts to people who I knew weren't going to read it themselves. I can also write backwards. There was a lad at my school who could write with both hands, his show piece was to write his first name with one hand and his surname with the other at the same time.

medusa 16 #23 Posted December 19, 2011 I don't have any problems reading backwards, upside down or both together- I learned to write and read in 'mirror writing' in homage to Leonardo da Vinci, who made most of his notes backwards.
