Don't really see why it would need closing Mike.

I was thinking that there was a limit to the number of left handed topics out there but I am happy for it go continue we could discuss styles of holding your pen specialist lefty tools for the kitchen.
Personally I enjoy being in a select club:-) which includes members of the royal family, plus jimi Hendrix!! plus Paul McCartney and rumoured JC was a lefty too, there one we can never prove as most back then couldn't write

‘Citeog’ pronounced ‘kitt-ogue’ is the Gaelic expression for a leftie. It's generally an endearing term. When I first started school I was told I was a "Citeog". "Yes I said, isn't everyone?" I replied . Well everyone in my family was. Imagine my surprise to find out others were right-handed! Apparently left handed people (as some have mentioned) are meant to be more creative, using the right hand side of their brain more extensively.
