Old stuff I still knowOur Ginger Fuhrer says that he could still code up a simple game idea in Amstrad Basic, while I'm your man if you ever need to rebuild the suspension on an Austin Allegro (1750 Equipe version). This stuff doesn't leave your mind - tell us about obsolete talents you still have.

Mate's memory better than mineStanding at the cash machine and after ten years with the same pin I get a sudden mental block and can't type it in. Complaining to my mate who was with me:
"Fuck sake, I've forgotten my pin. How did that happen? I've had it for years".
Mate leans past, types in my pin, gets cash.

That has happened to methe forgetting the pin not the mate knowing it. How does it happen? At the time (years ago) it was the only pin I had to remember and it completely went - nothing I could do could bring it back. I made little paper keyboards and tried the eyes closed re-trace and everything but not a thing rung a bell. Now I reset all my pins to the phonepad letters of my first name and so this will never happen again.
