Sinister indeed...

I believe that I may be the proud owner (and player) of the worlds only left-handed lagerphone-bow.

The 'Men-Of-God' - at the Christian Brothers College I attended years ago offered to convert me from a happy enough lefty to a 'God-Fearing-Righty' when I attended their paedophile infested violent place of incarceration er, fine learning establishment, at the ripe old age of 11 or so.

Thankfully, my parents declined their offer, the Brothers were left to curse and mutter amongst themselves and failed on both counts - leaving me without a potential stutter or worse, and with sufficient coordination intact to become a percussionist, if other 'catters will accept that word for 'he-who-bangs-and-shakes-things'.

I am not ambimousterous - I resort to driving a right placed mouse with my left hand using a crossover technique.

Cheers
