| Introduction | I'm 61, Scottish and falling apart. It's just been discovered that I have very few memories, not even of getting married. It's also been discovered that I retain information better if I read things 'upside down' (I read faster and more accurately when reading upside down anyway). Stick around as these 'neuro' probs could be a sign of laughs to come :) |
