Tenduriel has just left Hobbiton.

i don't know about Théodens lefthandness, as it is never named in LotR, nor in any other book of Tolkien I've read. what i do know is that I am lefthanded too, which makes i really have a terrible handwriting but (so it is said) a good eye for art. but some think lefthanded people are touched by fairies on the moment they were born, and that would be the reason why the catholic church has made it so disputed: they have, for many 100s of years, forbidden people to write lefthanded. and it is said they did it because they knew that it would hinder them whilst growing up, so that the talents that were given to them would never be able to show up.

but of course, this is all just old women's talk (like Boromir said about the misteries of the wood of Fangorn), and we shouldn't pay attention to it!

greetings!
