also hopeful story - didn't think I could take one hand off handlebars whilst cycling, hence never cycled on roads as couldn't indicate, but this weekend I discovered that I CAN!
Hurrah!

(now no excuse to to cycle to work grr)

i can't do links and neither can my computer savvy dh. I'm blaming the computer. I can't sew either. I can't play chess. Very bad at reading music unless just one line - hasn't improved since I was 12. I can't wash a pair of socks and keep them as a pair - i have the largest collection of single socks [for me and ds] you've ever seen. DH won't let me wash his socks anymore. Blush

Can't slice bread very well (but have got better since meeting DH)

BethAndHerBrood · 12/04/2006 12:47

I can't get out off the shower with it still running, has to be turned off.

I can't eat sausages and salad together.

It sounds worse when i write it down!!Blush

wabbitintheheadlamps · 12/04/2006 13:15

I can't sew... well I can but really hate it and then, as if in revenge, any mend or garment I have attempted falls apart! Angry

Jessajam · 12/04/2006 13:16

Can't cook...at all...I burn water...really, I do!

Can't tell L from R without putting hand in the "holding a pen position" to spot R or chceking which hand my wedding ring is on!!!!

Can't sing...was joyfully warbling along to TV the other day and the cat popped head out from behind curtains with VERY worried expression, ran up to me and stared into my face!!!!

spursmum · 12/04/2006 13:30

Can't whistle with my fingers in my mouth( although why would I want to?)
Can't roll my tongue but that may have something to do with the big metal bar through it!!
Can't read a map to save my life
Can't watch just one TV channel- I have to channel surf

Gumdrop · 12/04/2006 13:42

I can't shrug my shoulders, and say "Oh Well".
I can't wear skirts in summer Sad
I can't stand people who drive out to look at the pretty countryside and drop litter all over it.

spidermama · 12/04/2006 13:48

I can't fill in forms or get motivated enough to sort out a pension.

I can't make my top and bottom inscisors, or however you spell it, meet.

MrsBadger · 12/04/2006 13:53

can raise one eyebrow (very proud of this, spent ages practising when I was about 12)

tweetyfish · 12/04/2006 13:56

I can't tell my left from my right either. When i'm driving i know that right is when you cross the traffic. So when driving on continent with dp giving instructions i got them wrong everytime. For 2 weeks......

I can't diet

I can't get past the 2nd roundabout from my house without worrying that i've left the cooker/gas/electric radiator on or windows/doors open.

I can't run, jump, cartwheels etc anymore (but hopefully could if I lost weight) Sad

fsmail · 12/04/2006 13:59

I can't cook cakes. Anything else but sponges. Not good for birthday parties.

ProfYaffle · 12/04/2006 14:00

I can't keep myself or my house tidy for more than 3 seconds together.

Janh · 12/04/2006 14:02

Can't knit, sew, housekeep, drive south without turning the map upside down, use lipstick or fasten a bra at the back.

Can do nothing-at-all, all day, really well Grin

motherinferior · 12/04/2006 14:36

My incompetence is too comprehensive to detail, sadly.

lilstarry1 · 12/04/2006 15:38

I can't stand to leave things in a mess/disorganised.. I'm completely anally retentive (but have improved since DD born)

I can't say any word with "MN" or "NM" in it, ie: Animal, Enemy, Eminem (they come out: aminals, emeny, emineminem)

I can't abide rudeness, especially in adults/parents who set a bad example.

I can't roll my R's or wiggle my eyebrows, or my ears come to think of it. I seem to lack control over much of my body :)

Panyanpickle77 · 12/04/2006 15:44

I can't tidy up! Ok its a lie, I can really but I just DON'T WANT TOO!!!!Wink

biscuitdunker · 12/04/2006 16:27

I can't....

walk in shoes with a heel (even a little one, i just fall off!

also, I can't just do one sneeze, I have to do at least three! Grin

MrsBadger · 12/04/2006 17:00

dunker, it's just practice - I couldn't walk in heels either till I forced myself to wear in my wedding shoes round the house every night. Start with 10min and work up!
