No, not a joke. I'm tired of reading the markings on my metal tape
measure upside down. Anyone sell ones the other way up?

(I'm right handed, but do some things left handed; shoot, play
snooker and hold a tape measure...)


Anything Left Handed does one (I don't know if this link will work, but
you can get there by typing "tape measure" in the product search box on
the front page of the site.)

Having seen that I now realise I use a tape measure left handed, and
mark with pencil in the right hand, never consciously noticed the
numbers being upside down.
