Same here (though I throw in left pinky for tab!), but I'm much slower:

Good thing I'm not a secretary, eh? I type probably 50% faster when typing my own thoughts.

1st test: 74wpm/1 mistake - I didn't think I would make that high because I did a lot of backspacing.
2nd test: 82wpm/1 mistake.

I've gotten 10-20 wpm higher on other typing tests. This one was awkward, as there were a lot of british spellings, poor punctuation, and so on.

I believe it was the sight of that old fool Gladstone, standing in the pouring rain holding his special constable's truncheon as though it were a bunch of lilies, and looking even more like an enemployed undertaker's mute than usual, that made me think seriously about going into politics. god knws I'm n Tory, and I never set eyes on a Whig yet withut feeling the need f a bath, but I remember thinking as I looked at Gladstone that day: "Well, if that's one of the bright particular stars of English public life, Flashy my boy, yu ought to be at Westminster yurself."

I like how we both have the same avatars. Anyone with the nerd icon is 120 wpm+

In that pleastant district of meery ENgland which is watered by the river Don, there extended in acnieent times a large foreest, covering the greater part oft he beautifull hills and valaley swhich lie between Sheeffield and the pleaseant town of Doncasted. THe remains of this extensive woodd are ill to be seen at the noble seat of wentwroth, of warncliffe Park and around ROtheraham. Here haunted of youre the fabulous Dragon of Wnately; here were fought many of the most despearate battles durignthe Vicil wares of the Roes;se and ehre also flourished those bands of galland outlaws so popular in egnlish song.
