OK had a second go. Bettered result by 1 word and 0 mistakes

Just noticed I only use 3 fingers on each hand. If I find a way to incorporate the other 4 my wpm should go from 108 to 180. It only makes sense.

Laptop keyboard on arm of sofa to my right.

94. That's going to be my limit on this laptop!

I sometimes wonder if we'd spent as much time on a Piano, as we've all spent on our computer keyboards, we may well be experts
