graphologists

If it's the people who claim to be able to assess your personality from your handwriting, then your answer is 'graphologists'. However that type of graphology has now been largely discredited as a science.

Some forensic hand-writing experts also call themselves 'graphologists' but (because of the confusion with the 'personality' stuff), many just refer to themselves as 'hand-writing analysts'.

[anneasquith]

Graphologists, that's what I was looking for thanks.

[Buenchico]

It's no good engaging the services of a handwriting expert anyway, Anne. I got someone else to write that blackmail letter I sent you ;-)

(Two more instalments will get you the rest of the negatives).

[anneasquith]

Geez oh Chris stop please, my private investigator is parked outside your house. (I maybe should add this s a joke) he's in a white van.

[Buenchico]

I've had problems with people in white vans, and in white coats, many times, Anne ;-)

[1ozzy]

Me too Chris, but they do supply me with a very nice jacket, lots of buckles ;-/

[Buenchico]

Yes, 1ozzy.

They're very fashion conscious.

I asked them if I could wear 'straight' jeans. They said "We've not only got 'straight' jeans but a 'straight' jacket for you too" Wasn't that nice of them?

[anneasquith]

I've never had a problem with the vans coats or jackets. Always go voluntarily :-)

[1ozzy]

Very thoughtful indeed.

You've reminded me, Anne, of my late aunt, who spent quite a lot of her time as a voluntary patient in a hospital "where people went with their nerves" (as my mother called it when I was a kid.

She met her future husband there, who wore a special surgical boot as he had one leg shorter than the other. However, at the time of their wedding ceremony, his special footwear had been sent away for some sort of attention, meaning that he naturally leaned to one side. At the same time my 'nervous' aunt needed so much medication to get through the ceremony that she couldn't stand unsupported. So, as the registrar went through the marriage ceremony, they were stood with their shoulders touching but with their feet a yard apart!

[anneasquith]

Ha ha ha. I was that aunt !!!!!!!

[Buenchico]

I hope not, Anne!

She later attempted to murder him by holding a pillow over his head as he slept!

[tonyav]

The marriage went well then, Chris.

[anneasquith]

Bit harsh just for having a limp !!!!!!

[Buenchico]

It depends which bit of him was limp, Anne ;-)
