We are all very good by and large, but there must be something you cannot do.

I like to think I was good at all sports except rowing. Utterly useless, my brain and arms don't work together.

Happy days

a yawn is an honest opinion, openly expressed.

I was totally useless at all sports at school (except tennis). Athletics was my worst nightmare - school sports days were torture. Pathetic just doesn't describe my efforts :-D

I can't draw (or paint) at all so, as a nursery teacher, some of the children drew better than me!

I have not an ounce of competitive spirit so am totally useless at any kind of sport. I don't mind being outside, leaping around, etc, I really don't care about winning or beating anyone else!

The other thing I am really bad at is organising my time at home. At work I am fiendishly organised but, at home, la la la la good heavens is it that time already????

Well, thus far, you are all good at being honest.

A lot of people are not very good at that.

Happy days
