Now, that made me think too. I have been married to a Carpenter for over 30 years and have made ENDLESS mugs of tea for tradesmen so maybe that's where it came from?????

Not like you

I started at the bottom , it would end up backward I think.

But I write my "F"s in a backward kind of way. I think that goes back to the ancient cursive lessons when I was 7.
