Current work: archaeologist book - tinkering with earlier chapters
Listening to: Ray Wilson
Reading: catching up on sleep instead
Radio interview went well yesterday. So did open day at school. DH was really late home so I didn't get as much done as I wanted to. Am out tonight on governor stuff. (And he really, REALLY needs to understand that this weekend must be work and no socialising on my part - or else I'm not taking time off at half term. Men. Sigh.)
As I'm busy, I'm going to leave you with a link - originally given to me by my Meds author friend Jessica Matthews - to see if you're right-brained or left-brained. Give it a try - do you see the dancer going clockwise (right brain), anticlockwise (left brain) or both? (For the record, I saw clockwise until I looked out of the corner of my eye while reading on the lefthand size of the page - then I could see anticlockwise movement. Son was definitely anticlockwise, and daughter was clockwise. DH had to be different: 'Hang on, it's just switched...')
And... being nerdy, of course I needed to know the science behind it. Which you will find here.
So are you left- or right-brained?

Good morning. Oh, I love these sort of tests.
Clockwise. Completely, no hint of anti-clockwise at all.
Interesting, since I am a scientist by training and therefore should be more of a leftie - I think the science is on the money, this is more of a spatial awareness accomodation.
Oh the joys of procrastination!
LOL :o)
Anti-clockwise first then I'm with your dh - she changed after a minute or so.
Freaky!
Clockwise definitely!!
And I'm like Ray-Anne... I am an engineer by training so should be a leftie as well.
Exactly the same as you, Kate. Clockwise all the way until I started reading the text and then she twirled anticlockwise out of the corner of my eye.
I can only see her clockwise but Mr Nell and my eldest dd can make her switch at will.
I can make her stop and even thought I could get her going anti-clockwise, but she is determinedly clockwise for me. I already knew that I tended to use my right brain as I am VERY lefthanded.
I could've named the people who'd be first to try this one and I'd have been on the money. There are others (but one of them is in the middle of an exam right now and I hope it's going her way). Fascinating stuff, isn't it? I think these are even more fun than 'blogthings'. (Hmm. Not done one of those for ages, either.)
I'm clockwise too and you're B-A-D for putting this up!!!
How amazing is that. It was so obviously anti-clockwise for me. Then, when I read the text and looked back, she was going clockwise. Great stuff!
(Oh, and don't look at my blog today...)
So I saw her going clockwise - but if I closed one eye she started to go anti-clockwise . . . And it wasn't my left eye I closed - it didn't matter which!
