Hold up both hands in front of you with backs of hand towards you.

Imagine the sum is 4 x 9.

You'll do all the counting left to right, as you would if reading.

Starting from the left hand little finger count out 1-2-3-4, finger by finger, to get the first number (4) of the sum and lower this finger (the index finger).

You now have the answer displayed on your hands - starting again from the left hand little finger, count how many fingers are now displayed up to the index finger = 3. Now count how many fingers are left after the lowered the index finger - counting left to right = 6.

So you have your answer = 36.

Try another example!

5 x 9.

Counting 1-2-3-4-5 from the left little finger you lower your left thumb (the 5th digit).

Now count from left to right to get the answer.

How many fingers standing before you get to the thumb = 4.

How many fingers standing after you pass the thumb = 5.

5 x 9 = 45.

Clever eh?!

A gorgeous young redhead goes to the doctor's and says that her body hurts wherever she touches it.

"Impossible!" says the doctor. "Show me."

The redhead took her finger, pushed on her left breast and screamed, then she pushed her elbow and screamed in even more. She pushed her knee and screamed; likewise she pushed her ankle and screamed. Everywhere she touched made her scream.

The doctor said, "You're not really a redhead, are you?

"Well, no" she said, "I'm actually a blonde."

"I thought so," the doctor said. "Your finger is broken."

1) I used to have a massive palm tree in my garden but now it's been lopped down and looks like a rustic coffee table
2) I had to call a plumber to fix a problem in my bathroom and he tried to proposition me sexually
3) I just bit a fingernail for the first time in 16 years
4) I finally stroked a dog for the fun of it
