What cant I do? What can you not do?

[jellyjelly]

I cant read a map or know or understand how to drive in europe. What cant you do?

I can't draw. I have tried really hard. Really really hard but I just can't do it. My art teacher told me that my portrait of the girl sitting opposite was "like a frying pan with a face". I was the only one in the class who was not recommended to do O grade art.

Miriam2 - have you tried vinegar and newspaper on glass/mirrors? Works great but your house does smell like a chippie for a couple of hours!

I can't go a whole day without popping on MN - how sad eh!!

Oh yes, can't draw and can't sing.

I can't slice bread either!
I can't make a white sauce without lumps
I can't make salad dressing

Bozza - add an egg yolk to the meatball mix

Can't juggle

Can't do sums, numbers or anything vaguely mathmatically-based :( Bane of my life, can't even use a calculator adequately....
But obviously, am supremely talented at everything else.

I can't drive and wish I could, also can't follow directions on a map and get really confused between left and right.

Can't play a musical instrument

Can't do anything vaguely mathmatical.

But I can do links! Do you want me to show you? (I agree the instructions given in the box are confusing)

Cant do bunches, ones always bigger and the partings wonky!
Cant do left and right. passed my driving test with an L on my hand!!
Cant do any cooking without leaving every cupboard door open (DH hates that )
Cant pick up spiders even in a cup, and if they run OMG!!!
Cant park forwards
Cant do the crab - anymore!!
the list is endless feel like a bit of a failure now. maybe we should have a thread of things we can do

There's also also lots of things that DH thinks i cant do - and id rather it stays that way !!

I can't eat without spilling food down my front.

I can't stay in the same room as a spider (ugh!)

I can't be on time no matter how hard I try

I can't seem to lose weight! and I can't eat my boiled egg for an hour as I have just taken a slimming tablet!

Can't dance!

Can't stand on one leg without wobbling and falling over (in spite of hours and hours of yoga)
Can't make apple crumble - crumble goes like slurry!
Can't do left/right
Can't tell you which countries are next to each other.
Can't walk past a bowl of crisps without sampling them!

Can't drive (am working on that though)
Can't swim
Can't sing

can't catch (anything; if anything tosses me anything it sails past me or hits me in the face)

can't make a cake (they always go really hard and sad) though I can do muffins. It's always a 'birthday pile of muffins' for the babycinos

Can't do left/right either.
Can't run.
Can't use video/dvd player.
Can't do things in wrong order eg have to put socks on before trousers, wash hair before face in shower.
Can't eat mashed potato - would be sick.

Have reread list and feel like bit of a freak.

can't stomach eggs

vile chicken product

can't get on the property ladder

can't click my fingers

But I can read a map well and will drive anywhere.

I can't slice bread, or clap a rhythm. Even a REALLY simple one goes awray after about three claps!

Can't lose weight - well - can't stick to a diet!

Can't do without wine.

Can't keep house tidy.

Can't ski.

Can't sing.

Can't play any musical instrument.

For those of you with probs with left and right have you tried holding your left hand (work it out!!) up in front of you, palm facing away, fingers straight up, thumb at right-angles (pointing sideways away from hand!). Your index finger and tumb make a letter "L" for left.

Taught to me by a 7 yr old boy!!

I can't do arty stuff - singing/drawing/dancing/crafting etc. I've done 3 separate sets of salsa classes and nobody has ever noticed that I've had lessons before. The pole dancing classes I did were like tying a chimp to a scaffold pole in thigh boots and trying to make it look sexy.

I can do maps - can create a 3D map in my head from a paper map and rotate it in all angles so I know where I'm going. I can do gadgets and engineering stuff.

can't drive.
can't skate
can't clean my house (or won't...)

oh and can't do sports
