Backwards Writing

[Stargazer]

What's all that about? Leonardo da Vinci wrote backwards apparently but other people do so as well. It seems that left handedness and possibly dyslexia may account for some of it.

I watched that programme about the dreadful Da Vinci code too, the connections between left-handedness, dyslexia and creativity were interesting. I've often wondered what they make of me, when I was 16 (?) I was peeling an apple and my mother asked why I was using the knife in my left hand. That was the first time that I, or anyone else, realised that I used different hands for different tasks. It's not ambidextrous as I can't change hands, bit I'm sure there's a name for it. Contrary is what OH calls it.

I'd give my right arm to be ambidexterous:-)
