You'll find that you'll be able to move your left hand a lot easier to the scratch patterns that are in your head. Its then ONLY (!<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/classics/smile-r.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":spin:" title="spin    :spin:" data-shortname=":spin:" /> ) a case of gettin your (weaker) right-hand to work properly with the record.  Unfortunately I cant even wipe my arse with my right hand so im fu<ked! :S</blockquote>
