Isn't this something to do with a stick that people used to wipe their arse with, with a rag wrapped around one end. So if you get the wrong end of the stick you get shit on your hands......I'm sure I've heard something along these lines, or perhaps I dreamt it.....!

you're right, this doesn't make sense. 'Wouldn't touch him with a bargepole' however, means you don't want to go near someone.

Right as rain?????? Is rain always right then?
