Top-notch deciphering.

My dad is dyslexic and my daughter tends toward writing "how the word sounds"

English is an odd language.

Cereal vs Serial
Soup vs Soop

I understand where the author was coming from.

I am no expert on dyslexia, but I do know some of the most intelligent people I have met have suffered from it. I think I mean intelligence in a 'non-academic' sense though. The guy who did the loft conversion and other building work at my house is a great example, couldn't spell 'purlin' correctly, and yet could literally build a whole house by himself. I was in awe of his abilities.

Jackie Stewart has talked very interestingly about suffering from it, and how he compensated by excelling in other ways. I think it actually helped him, in some ways, because he had to overcome it by being better than he might otherwise have been.

I have absolutely atrocious handwriting, which is pretty much illegible, however the spelling will be correct.

Me too, are you left handed ?

Right handed, I've always had bad handwriting, I'd get schoolwork thrown back at me to do again, I'd do it again and it looked just as bad.

It's even worse now as mostly everything is typed.

I got grief at school for my handwriting but as soon as they realised i was a lefty they put it down to that .

No, just read it in a similar way to phonetical pronunciation.

As I noted my dad is dyslexic, I got used to reading misspellings that was nothing to do with education or lack of trying.

But we'd probably have to take your word for that.

Maybe they should have held the camera a bit further away

It just looks like a close up photo of a piece of dirty cotton wool with the face of Jesus on it. Except no one but the person that took the photo can see the face of Jesus. And they haven't even mentioned it! There's some crazy people about

Jesus? It’s Buddha, plain as day. Next to the rear view of a cat.

Just wow ...

[Krikkit]

That's amazing, definitely needs cross-posting into the Council thread too.

I think it's fairly safe to say that topping this is going to be a struggle.
