OT: a small test

Take your time and see if you can read each line aloud without a mistake. The average person over 40 years of age cannot do it.



1.This is this cat
  1. This is is cat.
  2. This is how cat.
  3. This is to cat.
  4. This is keep cat.
  5. This is an cat.
  6. This is old cat.
  7. This is fart cat.
  8. This is busy cat.
  9. This is for cat.
  10. This is forty cat.
  11. This is seconds cat.

Now go back and read the third word in each line from the top down.


"Bruce Fletcher (Stronsay, Orkney)" wrote in message news: snipped-for-privacy@bt.com...

LOL! Now I knew that Orkney was a bit behind the times (and thank goodness for it!) but that one`s almost mediaeval!

We'd only been here for a few months when someone remarked that the area couldn't be all that bad when the headline news (with photograph) in the local, weekly newspaper was that a three-legged lamb had been born on Sanday (an island about 6 miles from Stronsay). The current topic of conversation is the tragic death of a local girl who was on a working holiday in New Zealand.

I'm almost 54 and I read it! (With dentures in:o)
