The hardest thing for me wasn’t writing, it was learning to use scissors. By the time my school had sourced and bought left handed scissors, I’d learned to cut with my right.

That and using a fountain pen, as someone has already eluded to. That’s probably the other major reason for our poor handwriting. Our hands can’t rest on the page on wet ink.

Other issues for us lefties.
Scoring in darts - always had to stand with my head right in the firing line.
Before chip and pin you had to sign with a pen attached to some cord set up for right handers.
Tying shoe laces - what a night mare.
 
Just watched the declaration nice words by the king maybe the government will now start acting for the people instead of themselves they have been shown it’s not a joke governing the country it’s serious

Providing Camila knows her place I can get use to her being Queen consort, Charles will need her she was waving to the crowd today.
He’ll do his best for us I know it

Is it true what they say, have you ever changed hands?

Never have had, class of 20+ all through scool and college.

Gorton schools don't have private tuition or at least didn't when I went

We had 4 pupils leave our Gorton primary school last year and go on to grammar schools. All were privately tutored. On average we get between 3 and 5 pupils each year that go to grammar and all of them pay to be privately tutored. Of the 20 odd that have left us and gone to grammar school in the last 6-7 years, two were White British. Make of that what you will !

Never had an issue with laces, can’t really remember learning though. What was the issue?

Those pens on chains in banks bring back memories!

Pay in book at work for cash are a pain in the arse as they order right handed ones.

Learning guitar
Using can openers
Relying on the right side number pad of a keyboard

All 3 are things I have had to learn with my right hand at the time

Hadn’t thought of it as a left/right handed thing before, but the third of those is a right pain in the arse.

Well obviously each country is unique, but Specifically our Royal traditions, which aren’t seen anywhere else.

Thailand is on it's 10th king in the Chakri dynasty spaning 240 years, only the plantaganets in our history have supassed that at 245 years, their pagentry is pretty much conducted the same as for Rama 1

The present dynasty is only 105 years old

We are unique in our type of pomp but not exclusively special at it.
