That is quite a good skill, Katharine. I sometimes try to write with my left hand, and though I never write very neatly with it, I did figure out this factual joke:
If you want to figure how your first writing attempts were, try writing left-handed.

Re: Monthly Quiz
I'm not so sure. A few months ago, I noticed Sir Terence's score at a historical low: 17. Doesn't that mean he does not cheat? And if taking the quiz repeatedly is against the rules, it should be listed clearly at the top. Sir Terence could have a family as well who does not know as much as he does.

Re: Monthly Quiz
Thanks are due to Tony here as well, because on New Year's Eve whilst everybody else was celebrating I nobbled Sir Terence to make sure he couldn't come in the first three!! Why would you do that? I don't think we have absolute proof that he's cheating - it would be very unkind if he someone who ju...

Re: Happy Christmas Everyone
It's really fun to do, though - for me, not only do I know it's good manners, but I actually enjoy the process.

Don't keep the Facebook account then. They will have no choice but to write. (If you turn your phone off as well.)

Re: Musicals
I've only seen the screen version of Mama Mia, and although I loved the songs (well it's ABBA, of course I'd like them), I didn't particularly like the story. I love "Mama Mia"! Both the songs (of course) and the story. Thank you for your warning, Courtenay. I will be careful not to sugge...

Re: Jokes
Excellent time jokes. So was the "Ten Elves" one. Here's a good one: A man hears a knock at his door. He opens it, and finds a snail standing there. He picks it and throws it as far as he can. Three years later, the man hears a knock at his door. He opens it, and sees the same snail standi...

Re: Musicals
"My Fair Lady" and "Sound of Music" are both lovely films. The songs, story, acting... everything! I have never watched the film, "Les Miserables" though it seems interesting.

Mr. Goon had decided to practically teach children the alphabet - the problem was, he could only do the letter 'X'.
