Sky,
Right-handed threads are really common. To tighten them turn them
clockwise.
Between the ages of 8 and 15, I was really annoyed that they called them
right handed. Is the top of it going to the right, or the bottom of it,
I would ask myself.
I finally got over that, but it's good that you use the term clockwise,
which is much clearer. Really, it is. At least if someone is over
40. ;-)
Your bonnet nuts are certainly righthanded. Note that the stems
may not be since hot and cold taps turn in different directions.

When I tell kids to skate in clockwise circles, they just stand there
and blink.
