I can still work back to £ s d. Am very mildly number blind and find it very difficult to work around tens but was absolutely fine around twenty shillings and twelve pence or lbs and ozs. Likewise fractions can be pictured as a part where as decimal places can't. |

I have another hurdle to overcome soon, my friend gave me her old Smart phone? and now my son has figured out how to make it work in English instead of German (my friend is English but lives in Germany) he is going to show me what to do with it so I am able to access the internet etc with it. |

...............................................................Give up on modern technology ? I can use the computer (sort of) ... a mobile (very basic) ... a Kindle (well OK'ish) ... A very modern TV which needs 3 remotes (I manage in desperation when staying at son's house) ...But as for Ipods / Iplayers / Notebooks / any other modern contraption , Sorry I refuse to even think about it , I've given up :-P |
