Happy Left Handed Day.
« on: August 13, 2014, 10:54:49 AM »
It's Left Handed Day today, so best wishes to all my fellow left handed members.  I wonder how many members are left handed??
If you are or even if you have someone in the family or a friend who is left handed.  This is a great website to get left handed items.  I don't know how I would manage without my left handed knife or more importantly, my left handed corkscrew   ;) ;D

I am a leftie too Jacqui but I also use my right hand for a lot of things as well which I won't name!that was a joke...if I was playing tennis for example I would hold the racket in my right hand...they also say left handed people are more intelligent but that does not apply to me   :)

Me too Karen - left handed writing and right handed tennis, snooker, even painting/spraying. Bit odd.

I am left handed for everything.  So, a total lefty.  My son is left handed but plays golf right handed.  However, the benefit of him being left handed...and all lefties will know this.  I always get him to fold the sheets with me as he does it my way.

they also say left handed people are more intelligent

Apparently 15% of people are left handed, but 20% of members of Mensa are left handed, meaning you are correct  :)
