Hi Jenny

I'm disappointed my daughters don't see weird shapes for months and numbers. My year is kind of a clock shape, working clockwise from 1 with January - it was quite a while before I realised that I have SEVEN months between 1 and 5 o'clock, August stretching out as a long flat line of summer holidays before climbing up the autumn term with Dec 25 as the high point!

Sorry Jenny
I wasn't being pedantic; but reading your message confused me and I wondered why I couldn't understand it.
Just been in lectures reading 12 lead ECGs.
Brain fuddled

Joan - SNIFF and walks off with nose in air - I was just testing on the summer thing of course!

Gwyn - nice to know theres a posh name for it!
I also have a shape for numbers but wouldn't know how to describe it. Letters of the alphabet are in a straight line.
I used to think it was quite normal but nobody has ever told me that they do it as well

Hmm That's interesting.
I've never thought of them like that but I can see how you come to that reasoning.

We have had interesting threads on here in the past about people seeing names of things as a particular colour.....there's a posh name for it which evades me just now.
....so I guess shapes are just another branch of that type of thinking.?

I would certainly start taking the tablets...........months of the year are Jan Feb through to Dec and Summer doesn't come into it .
Hee hee
Joan

Interesting...............




I can see your logic though!!

Whoops, just as I thought - too weird to talk to!!

Was telling someone the other day that when I think of months of the year I see them in a horseshoe shape with summer at the top. And supposedly because we had a two week timetable at school I see days of the weeks in an oblong shape with the weekends one each end and the two lots of weekdays down the long sides of the oblong.

They thought I was completely weird
Should I just start taking the tablets do you think!?
