This thread disappeared for a while.

It definitely did.

It wasn't my fault.

Little minx , J

Morning girlfriends.

(Blame Nonu for that )

Another of these wonderful threads with a mind of its own - what was it all about?

My DGD 4yrs is writing with both hands at the moment and making a good job of it, she was writing a birthday card for her friends party today and wrote the first half with her left and then changed to her right, so unsure which she will finally use.

And the sun is shining here but for how long!!!!

Come on yous lot awake from your "sweet dreams" and get cracking , there is a lot to do today .xxxx

Never mind, Nonu...

You"ve lost me girlfriend !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course it's wrong to try to make a left-hander use his or her right hand. That wasn't in question.

Well Anagram the bottom line is that my son"s teacher was WRONG ,

Annobel my hand-writing slopes to the right. I hold my pen awkwardly and this caused problems in the past as it made me very slow. When I sat my O levels many moons ago I failed them simply because I ran out of time. I re-sat them 10 years later as I managed to change my style of writing....horrible not as neat but it did the trick and I passed all with flying colours.

I am an avid knitter and my knitting goes everywhere with me. It's a great conversation starter as yes I do knit in a very peculiar fashion that's all my own.

Well sook peaflower I have a notion u may be right , my son , my brother and now DG are all left handed and they are "people in their own right " if you get me heyho

Well, I'm glad that's been clarified - thought I must have missed some radical 'if we make them use the hand they want to, they'll do the opposite' teaching method of the past!

DS1 is right-handed and plays tennis with his left hand; his father is left-handed but plays golf with right-handed clubs. I am fairly certain that my mother should have been left-handed because her hand-writing sloped backwards and in the days when she went to infant school (World War One), children were simply not allowed to use their left hands. When my right hand was out of action, I had a big problem using a mouse left-handed.

Embarrasing moment doh I meant sit on our left hand or with our left hand behind our backs.

Some people are able to write legibly with both hands I suppose that means that they don't have a dominant side of the brain? I believe it's called (ambidextorous)I think . I haven't checked, before somebody comes down on me like a ton of bricks .

Nonu Lefties (1 in 11 of the population are lefthanded) have been around a lot longer than polictical persuasions.

We have a saying.....Left handers do it differently

Jeni has clarified it , was a typo .

Sook , had to read your message twice and I2m not taking the mick when u said "lefties" I thought you meant your political persuasion, then the penny dropped LOL daft me

Can`t cope with a mouse, give me my touchpad anytime!

And Sook as well?
