Re: Worst code I ever saw...

I got my own back on him, though, when I took my 11 Plus exam. I had recently fallen off a piano stool (don't ask) and had a green stick fracture of the right Radius bone. I was in plaster from my palm up to just below my armpit, with the elbow set at 90°. I was allowed extra time to take the exam because I had to write left handed. Mr Currell was invigilating, and I could see the steam emitting from his ears as I was permitted to do the very thing he had beaten out of me two years before.

I naturally used to use the mouse in my right hand, but several years ago, I developed RSI, so I now use it left handed, which frees up the right hand for taking notes, etc.
