Ooooh.......I like lefties!

I've been looking for a left-handed pianist all my life - can you tinkle the ivories as well, Marky?

Can't you take The Boy Wonder to piano lessons? Then I can wait for him to grow up!

I'm a lefty too, although I'm flexible. I write with my left hand but use scissors in my right. I play tennis and rounders left handed, but golf and cricket right-handed. I play the guitar right handed and use a knife and fork right handed - but eating with a fork or spoon only, I use my left.

Purely as a matter of interest - Andy, do you suffer with dyslexia?

Im left handed along with both my daughters who by the way play piano and my youngest plays the violin and my eldest plays the flute all with ease. I play cello but with my right hand strange.

Live each day to the full because one day it will be your last.

Mrs Bat uses her hands in a similar way ... she's not dyslexic either.

I hope you didn't mind me asking - a lot of people with varying degrees of dyslexia are ambidextrous.

I'm dyslexic - but unfortunately bloody useless with both hands.

I can't tell my right from my left anyway unless I'm holding a pen!

All men leak.
