We were asked by a club member whether any of us also have problems with greeting people with a kiss, either on one or both cheeks. She said that she often ended up bumping noses or planting the kiss firmly (and embarrassingly) on the other persons lips because she always seemed to start on the wrong side.
We thought about is and realised that we all do the same – it IS a left-handed thing!

When we asked about what other problems people had we got a huge response. Some of the things that were mentioned were:

Crossing other peoples paths/position on pavement
Hugging

Taking neighbour’s drink/bread roll at the dining table

Direction of work, decorating/painting rooms
Being helped to put on a jacket

Receiving change

Putting children’s socks and shoes on

Feeling more comfortable sitting on the left hand side of things

Putting belts on upside down

Visualise things the opposite way around
Trouble opening/locking locks

Work stations flow the opposite way around
Organising files “back to front”

Undoing wine corks anti-clockwise

Putting clothes back on racks the wrong way round

Flicking through magazines from back to front

Line dancing on the wrong foot

Tying shoe laces

It seems that a lot of the quirks that we have are a result of being left-handed in a right-handed world.
