I peel, butter, slice with a knife in my left hand, writing, tennis in the day, etc I'm right handed. No-one noticed this, me included, until I was about 15! Does that mean that I am only in my right mind for a part of the day??
well here is the first left handed roundabout in England

changed after a few hours
and there is a prof of left handedness
and here is the book he wrote
Left hand Right Hand - chris mcmanus
he ( but I repeat myself from last year but so what) wanted to estimate the lefties of yore and went around the museums looking at torques - copper and silver.
they twisted see? so it gives an idea (8%) L against 92% R
and I did a Harry Enfield - you doan wanna do THAAAT !
look at the rates of s and z hand spun wool. lefties create s spun wool strands. The strand looks essy when you look at the twist under a magnifying glass
so he did. - a few hundred thousand samples from Egypt where you all know I worked. still 8% Elisabeth Crowfoot (*)
did anyone see the bronze age stilt house on telly a few nights ago?
he Chris M even went there to see the textiles
( still 8% I think)
end of leftiness tutorial
(*) wasnt that textile expert the sister of Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin nobel prize winner ? Yes and daughter of the textile expert who described the first found bit of Conti Silk - v v exp Roman age silk - from Dura Europos - in I think 1926. But I digress ( again)

Respect, Stephen.
Don't talk to me about right-handed power tools (which is all of 'em apparently.)
Circular saws are the worst. The motor is on the wrong side, and all the sawdust blows up into your face.
And............... they have a little button which you have to press before the trigger will operate.
Designed for a right thumb, I have to press it with the inside of my left index finger. All they have to do is put the button on top so I can use my thumb......... grrrrrr
....and don't get me started on chainsaws..................... ;o((((

My left-handed wife is one of the neatest and most legible writers I know and, like poorclare, doesn't distort herself to do it. Her writing is so good that, when it matters, I get her to write things for me.
Incidentally, any right-handers reading this thread, try writing backwards with your left hand. It's easier than you think and comes out remarkably similar to a mirror-image of your normal writing.

My (Left-handed) handwriting is atrocious, and I got into trouble with my English teacher whilst at Secondary School because of it. He made me take a piece of chalk in my right hand (In front of the whole class) and write my name on the board - it looked like I had tried to do it during an earthquake!
