Lindsay Laurie January 27, 2016 at 6:26 PM G'day Viv ... I hope you haven't started something here although a second language might be handy - Lindsay Viv Wigley January 27, 2016 at 10:45 PM Doubtful, Lindsay, I'm currently struggling to learn German and Afrikaans. I do a fluent 'drunk', though.... thanks for dropping by. Regards, Viv

Andrea Dietrich January 24, 2016 at 12:29 PM oh my, Viv I don't have time to read this all since it is backwards. hahaha. you need to do the forward way beneath it so we won't get discouraged!!! But I can see at the top of it, he is walking down St. Peters!! You know, I really enjoy walking backwards. I am very fast at it, and also at skipping!!! Viv Wigley January 25, 2016 at 12:47 AM You be careful, Andrea, I hope there aren't too many lampposts and trees where you live :) Viv x

Anne-Lise Andresen January 24, 2016 at 7:41 AM - Creative ..... a bit hard to read ..... maybe I should try with a mirror .... well done, Viv! - hugs // Anne-Lise :)) Viv Wigley January 25, 2016 at 12:48 AM Worth a try, Anne-Lise, but then the letters will be backwards :( . Thanks for dropping by. Viv x

Lin Lane January 24, 2016 at 4:33 AM Not only is walking backwards man quite the character, but so is rM. yelgiW. I was bemused. lol You made me smile...well done. Viv Wigley January 25, 2016 at 12:49 AM Thanks Lin, he reminds me of the Goon's song 'Im walking backwards for Christmas'. Viv x

Sherri Whiteford January 24, 2016 at 2:15 AM Oh my you are very clever Mr. Viv; I also use to do this. My sister and I use to write long letters like this so no one could read what we wrote...I also say BRAVO to you. I'm so glad I stopped by for this read..... Sherri Viv Wigley January 24, 2016 at 2:22 AM To be honest, it gave me a headache, writing it, never mind reading it.... x Viv, irrehS, sknahT.

Keith Bickerstaffe January 24, 2016 at 1:46 AM I used to do this in school to screw with people... now you're doin' it to me! BRAVO Viv! Sortin' this lot out has made me sleepy! Keith Viv Wigley January 24, 2016 at 2:07 AM I commend you on your Herculean feat of ocular gymnastics, Keith, well done! regards, Viv
