    My older brother was dyslexic as well. He also was the type who put his head down and did all types of hard-working jobs. At 13, he worked on farms, bricklayers helper. He ended up in his own business as a cement laying contractor. He had a great sense of direction, you show him once, and he knew it forever. Your guest Andrew reminded of him when he deciribed his work experience. Another fabulous podcast.

    🇨🇦 great podcast. I raised 4 kids on a farm and we had our days of car seats and front carriers as we had work to do and no one to do it for us. As Andrew said it’s safer to have the kids in the seat than playing the yard. They loved being with us. Dairy farming was hard work in those days. Today we milk with robots, bale large square bales instead of small ones we handled by hand and life is so much easier . Cammy when you come to Canada some day I’d love to give you a tour 💙

    Very good, always great to raise awareness ,promote understanding and give support to anyone with dyslexia , in the past our young were pushed to the side and written off ,and thankfully this has changed.

    Great vlog again Iona & Cammy. Andrew certainly shows the strength of mind farming needs overcoming dyslexia in an industry that must be extremely challenging. ❤

    Loved the bit ," who came up with the word for Dyslexia, as Dyslexic "😊.
    As a fellow Dyslexic I have never heard that one before and I will be 60 next year.😊
    I was told by teachers and lecturers at College there was no such thing.😢
    Great stuff thank you all.😊

      Andrew, have you tried reading text on blue paper or using a clear blue plastic layed over text? It's a trick that works for some students at University.

    What a great podcast. Just comparing the cost of a farm twenty years ago to a piece of machinery. It makes it more understandable when you think how expensive a farm is. Or a home.

    I am dyslexic, got told at 7 I was educational sub normal. 3 Masters, 5 Degrees later,i think i would disagree.
    The comment drove me, still drives me to have a go and get it done. Dyslexia lets you think differently. Use this to make a positive contribution.
    1 in 10 people have some form. So we are a large minority.
