It appears that some people are genetically incapable of slicing a loaf. When they attempt this not very difficult manoeuvre, they end up slicing the loaf into wedge-shaped chunks.
Even if they do manage to carve a perfectly proportioned slice in the vertical plane, the next will be a docker's doorstep, with the thick / thin series being repeated several times before once more lapsing into a wedge in rither the vertical or longitudinal plane.
Strangely enough, it's usually women who tend to produce wonky slices when attempting this test of manual dexterity which men seem capable of mastering with great ease - I always know when Hay has been butchering the bread. Could it be because we men innately understand how to handle a saw?
