Funny how some people
are naturally less at home with numbers: one of my daughters and one of
my nieces have the same gonerness, though way above average at language
and other things.

Quite, my wife won't attempt Sudoku, which I love, because it's numbers but
I'm certain if I replaced the numbers with letters ie, a to i (it would work
just as well) she would not be put off at all. I wonder what it is about
numbers that puts people off?

In my case, partly bad teaching and partly not natural aptitude. I cannot
fathom out what Sudoku is about, let alone do it! But I love doing - or at
least, attempting - crosswords.
