"Left Hand Right Hand" drabbles by Neville Hunt

On the one hand... on the other...

Left Hand Right Hand #3

At this point the American, still smarting from two defeats asks the Irishman “Tell me Sir, yesterday you beat me playing left-handed. Today you beat me right-handed. Can you tell me how you decide what hand to play with?" The Irishman replies "Well then, when Oi wake up, if my wife is laying on her left side, then Oi play left-handed, if she's laying on her right side Oi play right-handed" To which the curious American adds " So what if she happens to be laying on her back?"

"Then Oi’ll be half an hour late!"

Tomorrow 9am... Right?

Left Hand Right Hand #2

So they both turn up the next day at 9am, only this time the Irishman is playing with a right-handed set of clubs. They play a round and once more the Irishman wins convincingly. The American absolutely hates losing and is determined, if only for the honour of the Stars and Stripes, to beat the Irishman. He has just five days before his return to the States, so after his two losses he suggests “How about the best of 5, buddy?” The Irishman says "Sure. Oi’ll meet you here at 9am, but Oi could be half an hour late"...

Anyone for golf?

Left Hand Right Hand #1

An American holidaying in Ireland decides to play golf. He goes to the nearest club, asking around if anyone will join him for a round as he’s on his own. An Irishman walks up and says "To be sure, Oi’ll play wid you.. Tomorrow at 9am... but Oi could be half an hour late."

The American is there at 9am prompt, as is the Irishman carrying a set of left-handed clubs. The Irishman wins convincingly. The American suggests a rematch. The Irishman replies "Certainly. Oi’ll meet you here at 9am tomorrow, but Oi could be half an hour late.".....
