My hidden skill!!!

I know all the words of many "old" songs, and can sing them from start to finish. (I grew up in a home with no TV but we had a radio.....) I can also, very quickly, sing an "old" song but with different words which I make up on the spot; a skill which has impressed DGC more than once.

I share BradfordLass' talent, with the variation that I bring on the previously hidden rain clouds when I go out to cut the grass, or clean the car!

I am weirdly good at guessing random things my husband asks me, he is amazingly good at spot the difference.

I can kill a gransnet thread, just you watch!

I can eat with chopsticks quite easily - right from the first time I was handed a pair. I showed off a bit ....
?

I bake brilliant cakes, pies, biscuits?
but cooking absolute rubbish?

teabagwoman what implement do you use for toenails, may I ask? I cannot cut DH's as they would break the clippers.
I think that's a wonderful skill BTW helping at the hospice.

Moss far, can you walk round the course with me and help me find my golf balls please, I lose a couple every round, !

I can cross my second toe over my big toe.

I spent a long time on drips and I’m in awe Annepl. I share Eglantine’s skill but have recently developed a more useful one in that I now cut patients toenails at our local hospice. I always knew I would find my niche!

DGDs say that my spaghetti Bolognese is better than their mum's.

Yorkshire puddings

I don't know if it's hidden exactly as my neighbours notice and curse me - but however long and hot the sun shines during the day, the instant, the very instant I put out my laundry, it begins to rain.

quizzer!

I can retain totally useless information, which makes me a great quizzed.

I can say my alphabet backwards but not How much is that doggy! Phoenix you are a bit too clever.
I can always say the wrong thing and put my foot in it. I have a real canny gift for that.
DM used to tell me I was the only person who could make coffee just how she liked it. Ahem. It took me years to realise she was flattering me to get me to make her coffee.

Yes. I defy anyone to top this. I can put a stretchy bra-top on whilst one arm is attached to an antibiotic drip. I kid you not.

I can say the Peter Piper had a pickle pepper alliteration poem very quickly.

I had to learn it as a child to stop my terrible stammer and it worked. ?

I can eat my own bodyweight in chocolate - does that count?

Perfect strangers are always coming up to me to ask advice or directions. I have no idea why and my dh thinks it’s hilarious. But bizarrely I can more often than not, help.

I can whistle with my tongue!

I can lose important things no problem

I can find golf balls hidden in the long grass on our local golf course!
I have been walking around that golf course for over 50 years and I just seem to 'know' where they are hiding.
My husband always tries to beat my score when we go walking but he never does - he says I'm a witch LOL. When I was a child I used to sell them to the golfers but now we just give them away or leave them outside the clubhouse for someone to find.

I can sing "How much is that doggy in the window" backwards!

(Its actually not that difficult, go on, give it a go!)

Phoenix now imagines Grans singing "window the in doggy, that is much how, tail waggly the with one the, window in doggy that is much how, sale for doggys that hope do I.the

Not me as such, but both my daughters know when I am settling down to watch a film, they always phone 5 minutes into the film for a long chat !
