M.E., Auckland.

When using rubber gloves I usually find that the glove I use most (being right-handed) is the one that rips or splits. Splitting one this morning while cleaning my oven and not wanting to take a trip to get more, I turned one of the many left gloves I was reluctant to throw away inside and found that it was quite acceptable for using, so now instead of having 12 useless gloves I have 6 pairs of gloves to carry on with.
