Stairwells ran clockwise in medieval castles so that attackers were at a disadvantage--their sword hands (right hands) were positioned against the wall’s interior curve, while the defenders had the outside wall, making it easier to swing and attack.

In the Middle Ages, young women and men would draw names from a bowl to find their Valentine and then wear the name on their sleeve for a week. Hence the expression, “to wear your heart on your sleeve”.

If you never want to look for your keys again, you should try making a mental note of where you put them. Don’t just fling them on the table but put them down carefully and say to yourself, “I put my keys on the kitchen table next to the bananas”. This’ll help you remember them more easily.
