Perfectly straight forward things you are fecking hopeless at... 18:01 - Jan 24 with 3211 viewsgainsboroughblue

I'm over 50 and I've basically given up on being able to wrap presents without using way too much paper and it being a screwed up mess with loose bits of sellotape everywhere, including my clothing.

Poaching an egg. Just no.

Cracking an egg into a bowl without getting shell in it. Have tried all techniques. Still no dice.

Wrapping stuff in clingfilm without it all shrivelling up. Mope.

Getting the clingfilm off the feck'n roll in the first place, without it embracing itself and appearing to go the opposite way round the roll.

Convincing the receptionist (computer says no) at my health centre to give me an appointment to see my doctor.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Straight forward my arse! (That's not an invitation for Wicklow either )

I don't think anyone works out life. Some people probably get close just as they draw their last breath, but I've a feeling I'll have got about 5% there by then. I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up and I'm in a kind-of-retirement already.

Ironing. It's not laziness as I do the housework but I just can't do it.

Putting my boxers on the right way round.

Getting those new fancy hand air drivers in public toilets to work. Those ones under the mirror, you have a soap sign, water sign then the air drier sign. No probs with soap & water but why can I never get the fecking drier to work, it should be so simple.

Writing. My handwriting shocking, would make a doctor's look neat. I think it's worse than it was when I was about 6, no exaggeration.

I can’t butter bread. I’d consider myself to be a decent cook but buttering bread, nope.

I relate to all those things, Gainsborough.
And ironing.

Also taking the sticky seal tab off a loaf of bread.

I'm with you on this! (Not related to my previous contribution)

Also, why can I not make easy open/seal packets of cheese work? I spend ages trying to get the train tracks to align....then end up rolling the fecker around itself and dumping it into the fridge.

Don't get me started on easy peel packs of cold meats....

Maybe viagra could help solve all my problems???
