Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

But if you hold the pen right then I don't see how this could happen. I'm going to have to watch my brother in law write. The fingers resting on the page would be lower than what you're writing...It's not like you're going higher with each line!
Unless the hold the pen beside the fingers that are resting on the page... I'll investigate!

It doesn't really work like that, if you're writing with your left hand you've to push the pen along and drag the hand behind it, you can't really put the hand below where you're writing and then just pivot it clockwise as you go like you do with the right. It's kinda hard to explain.
In short, avoiding smudging with your left hand involves some discomfort and writing more awkwardly. If most people were left handed, we'd probably write from right to left.
You may notice that some people when writing with their left hand sort of hook it around and write from above in the most uncomfortable, Gollum looking way - that's to avoid smudging!0 -

Yeah I thought that was more comfortable for them for some reason!! it looks really weird. my son is left handed, maybe I should force him to use his right like old times, save him a lot of hassle in future!! :P0 -

Yeah I can't imagine it would be good. I was ambidextrous as a child but I ended up falling into a habit of using my left. So now I'm right handed for sports and stuff, left handed for writing, and ambidextrous for other stuff. A freak, basically!
I knew you were kidding!

Crappy sleep again. I never have any bother going to sleep, it's staying asleep. Was in bed for 11.30, awake again at 3.45. Still wide awake after 6am. I only dozed after that, as I was expecting the little one to be up any minute. She actually crawled in beside me at 7, and slept till 8. I don't think she has ever slept that long which was great, but I'm highly trivially annoyed that I didn't get the benefit of it 0

On the Luas lately I have noticed people becoming more and more annoying all the time. Or perhaps I am becomigng less tolerant. No matter where I sit, there are annoyances. On the inside seat, you are directly under the air con and slowly freeze to death, plus some fat f.ucker will undoubtedly phlump down beside you and touch their horrible fat thigh off yours. On the outside, there will be people standing way too close, crowding your personal space and will either have their crotch at your eye level or be pushing their áss into your shoulder etc. Some f.ucker this morning stood in the aisle (not down the aisle of course, oh no we had to stand right beside ONW didn't we?) and muched his /her way through a cereal bar right in my f.ucking ear Sitting in the very front seat will leave you open to having your shins touched off by people who crowd on with no sense of spatial awareness Then there are the sniffers, snorters, hackers, gulpers, swallowers etc. Is it just me or does every single f.ucking person have some kind of throat/sinus problem?? Give up the dairy, dimwits! 0
