Couldn't do forward rolls in PE. Can blow smoke rings (and do an Irish Waterfall), can't do the special whistle - Alan Curbishley is still the most talented whistler I've ever seen!
re curbs perhaps he can compere "one man and his dog" ..its gonna be a longer contract than wolves ...sorry praps
Can do smoke rings and the whistling with fingers. In fact, I gained near hero status locally after teaching a bunch of street loitering teenagers how to whistle with fingers!
That applies to many on this (or most) forum (s). I try to ignore it. I try to pretend it doesn't matter. But I just wish people would realise their point would be better made if it was made easier to understand. Punctuation is there for a reason!
Part of me agrees with this, but part of me thinks that it doesn't really matter! Language changes, if it didn't we would all be speaking like Shakespeare. 'Come oneth you redeths'
Can't whistle with fingers. Couldn't do cartwheels at school, no chance now. can't soft boil an egg (although I can cook almost anything else) Can't rollerskate/blade, or iceskate. Can't sing in tune although I spend everyday trying. Can't walk in heels.

My take on spelling and punctuation is that if you see the errors it niggles and is irritating.
However the important thing is the content of what people are trying to say and I draw a parallel with the PC Police stifling debate by homing in on incorrect use of terminology (eg coloured, black) rather than addressing valid issues raised.
EDIT: As regards the topic it would probably be easier to list what I CAN do.
Hang wallpaper (or decorate in general). Whistle like Curbs. Quote or upload photos on CL (my deficiency not the computer's or the site's). and, going back a bit: Get JiMMy85 to wash the car, mow the grass, or play his REM music quietly.
