The cafe workers are Polish. They're very cute. But, they know nothing of teaspoons.
a shocking statement, betraying an unforgivable lack of knowledge of the proud traditions of Polish cavalry spoons that any Polish child would have been raised with

not to mention the brave Polish stirrers that went to Britain during the war "Za nasza i waszą herbaty"
Hugo, you know what Blib is like with European stirring customs.

It's best just not to rise to the bait.

Les, Graham Lister, the Living Carpets, Action Image Exchange, Judge Lionel Nutmeg and the Wheel of Justice, Isambard Kingdom Brunel bring him on whilst swinging on a bell rope...

still got them all on VHS somewhere

Edit: Les had an inordinate fear of CHIVES, but couldn't help raise a smile whenever he saw a spirit level

Was a concensus ever reached over the best design or style for someone with a motor disability? It's my brothers birthday coming up - poor blighter's left-handed.

Would the Hinton style, possibly with a beveled handle, be suitable or will it leave him even more frustrated than usual?

As another lefty i can not use those. The right-handed propaganda machine managed to indoctrinate me early and i now find left handed things slightly uncomfortable to use.

It is a sad fact that in this enlightened time lefties are still forced into following the righty agenda.

Happier maybe, but let's also not forget it was the turning point at which the forkists started to gain real traction with their political sway...
