An old hand








 An old hand I have known is my grandmother who had been a boss of stationery shop for over 30 years. She was an old hand at the job. Especially she used on the abacus when she calculated big number quickly, it was extremely amazing. As well as she calculated how much the plenty of paper exactly.  She had unbelievable memory. She achieved so much stuff that my family always appreciate for her.

  3. Your grandmother is great! I've used abacus a few times, but I couldn't use it really well.

  4. Thanks for sharing Arum. I have never learned how to use an abacus properly. How about you? It is impressive what our seniors achieved without digital devices at their fingertips. It sounds like your grandmother built up the stationary business well with her careful eye for detail ... and you are no doubt still benefiting from her dedication.
