I work with colour a lot (theory, psychology, application, etc) and some years ago remember reading a piece in the BMJ about a medical research project related to colour impairment... I feel sure that the piece said that around 30% of males are either colour 'blind' or have some level colour impairment... I can't for the life of me find any evidence of this study online, so maybe there is new evidence that that takes the % back down to one in ten males... anyone know any thing about this?

Top left might be a 5 and 8?...

Top right defo 18...

Bottom left, nae chance...

Bottom right 1 and 7 or maybe 2?...


On the subject of lefties, there was a boy at my school who was naturally left handed, and he reckoned a doctor said he had developed a stammer because his parents tried to get him to use his right hand/foot when he was younger!..

BBW, I too have been tempted but saw the effects and read too much and saw too many photos. I drew my own conclusions and feel nightmares like that should be left in the past, if possible.


Is the diagram not 58, 18, E and 17?


Agreed Red Devil, never try to change the hand/foot that children use. I think it confuses them.

That happened to my grand-dad. I'm not sure what year he was born, but some time around the turn of the century. I understand that teachers would tie his left hand to his side. Anyway, he stammered all his life because of it, but had a lovely tenor singing voice, without stammer.


Edited to say - sorry for going (and remaining) off topic - I have never chewed gum!

If the first answer is "8" then I got the first two only.


The second, I assume is "10" no idea about the 3rd or 4th one.

    • The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷
    • An inquiry will put a huge amount of time and resource into looking at what happened in the past and why it happened and who was responsible and, in a year or two maybe more, a report will be produced and actions may or may not be taken, some of those responsible for bad decisions will already have resigned and moved on.   Given that we now already understand some of the issues that allowed this awful behaviour to continue unchallenged, my concern is less about whether there is an inquiry to examine what happened in the past but about what is being done right now to protect girls and young women from predatory and exploitative men in whatever race or identity they come in. Inquiries examine the past but don't necessarily solve problems and they certainly don't come up with conclusions quickly which is why they can often feel hollow.  I'd rather see perpetrators and those that let the perpetrators actually with impunity, actually being prosecuted and an inquiry won't do that.  I suspect that's why some MPs voted against an inquiry. But do feel free to give me examples of inquiries that really made a difference and actually changed things in a timely and effective way.      
    • In recent consultation on further ED CPZ the majority of respondents were against. Fully appreciate you may not live on a road proposed for CPZ. If you are close to that area it is likely you will be affected by parking displacement if the CPZ goes in. I was just curious what James Barber's position on this is? Perhaps he'll come on here and let us know. He was always really good at visiting the forum.
