Prevented from using American Riviera Orchard, Meghan has come up with the brand name, As Ever!

I don’t know about the USA but has nobody advised her that in the UK it’s often a term of exasperation? đŸ€”

Retrolady In the 40’s my parents told the school we left handers were special.
Sorry to all I spoke of left handed, innocent comment

I’ve got a better one for her Courtney of Catherine Tait’s Lauren - “Wha’ever”

What is predictive text playing at?
“Courtesy of”

I usually notice if a person wears a watch on the right hand. I also notice when a person writes with their left hand. But it's merely an observation.

I have never noticed she is left handed. Not a criticism at all.

I suppose we have seem William signing things, so realise he is, but you don’t see Meghan signing documents, so not obvious.

As a left hander I do tend to notice when the left hand is the
prominent hand

Me too and I regard it as being special. My mother in law used to regard my left-handedness as a disability and say how clever I was to overcome it!!!!! My DH was left-handed, but she was very proud that she 'trained' him out of it!!! His hand-writing now (using his right hand) is appalling. Thank goodness times have changed.

Just seen your post nanna - great minds think alike!

As Ever suits this very strange manipulative woman😄

Barleyfields Wed 19-Feb-25 11:08:14

And probably many deficient right handers too I’m sure. It’s not a feature of a person that tends to be uppermost in my impression of them.

Anniebach Wed 19-Feb-25 11:05:49

You have met many deficient left handers

Barleyfields Wed 19-Feb-25 11:02:54

I have never met him so wouldn’t know.

Anniebach Wed 19-Feb-25 11:00:19

Willingly , surprised you didn’t know - The Devil Is Left Handed,

Barleyfields Wed 19-Feb-25 10:57:07

It isn’t, do give it a rest!

Anniebach Wed 19-Feb-25 10:54:11

Not at all strange for a left handed person to notice a predominant use of the left hand, we live our lives hearing it,
‘Your Left Handed’ . Never have I heard it regarded as a deficiency

I hadn’t noticed she was left handed before her video re her new brand

And?

Barleyfields Wed 19-Feb-25 10:47:49

FGS Annie, how many times do I have to say it? I could ask, why did you write about it in the first place? It seems a very strange thing to comment on.

Anniebach Wed 19-Feb-25 10:36:37

Wonder why when left handed is spoken of a first thought is
deficiency,

Shelflife Wed 19-Feb-25 10:34:17

Barkeyfields, Strange isn't it how people think you actually meant it !!

nanna8 Wed 19-Feb-25 10:07:16

My eldest is a leftie. She found it hard to knit and gave up trying. She is a wonderful sewer though.

25Avalon Wed 19-Feb-25 10:06:15

Don’t you sometimes sign yourself off with as ever? Such as “As ever your loving wife”. So not necessarily negative.

See this article from a Majorcan newspaper.

Barleyfields Wed 19-Feb-25 10:05:27

I don’t see left handed people as deficient Annie. Don’t you recognise humour?

Sparklefizz Wed 19-Feb-25 10:04:04

She is also in trouble with Mallorca for pinching their emblem. It can't be accidental because it's identical.

being left handed isn't a defiency

True but seems a poster sees us as deficient
