THREAD DEATH
Do any of you play any instruments? Did you massively fail at the recorder? What other possibly-useless skills do you have?

I'm qualified to drive low-level order picking vehicles (LLOPs).
But only Wincanton-owned vehicles, and only on one site in Doncaster. And my license expired over a year ago.
(I helped save b3ta! The Mock TurtIe ™ --- Thinks you are a cunt, on, Tue 2 Aug 2011, 19:31, Reply)
I dunno if counterbalanced-forklift licences expire
but I'm qualified to drive one. Man, I had fun in that thing, and a couple of close calls. I'm glad I'm not qualified to drive racing cars.

I play bass a little better than Sid viscious
but that's only cos he's dead. I can do about 2 chords on the geetar and I could play that pretenders one on the Ukulele when I practised. I can also get a good 10 seconds of farty noise from the digereedoo and I have some bongo drums which I am not allowed to bronge to parties.


Massively useless: I can dislocate both shoulders at will.

means good stuff for the band too, because our drummer is a great guitarist and pianist. If I can play rudimentary drums we can really mix things up.

How talented is your drummer, on a sliding scale from Ringo Starr to Christian Vander?

(I helped save b3ta! The Mock TurtIe ™ --- Thinks you are a cunt, on, Tue 2 Aug 2011, 20:10, Reply)
that's a long scale
I'd say he's close to the middle.

He's a better guitarist and pianist than drummer, but I certainly don't want to put his drumming down.

Curiously, the two drummers we've had have both been ice cream men at some point in their lives.

What you have to do, is to wash up your cups within a few hours of finishing your brew. Leaving the cup on the floor by the sofa for a few days makes it more difficult.

means there are more left around the place before you run out and are forced to wash them. I own 4, no more, no less. Same with plates. Only have 3 of those though, I trod on one and now it's a pallette

Denture tablets, apparently
failingthat, you could try rubbing the stain with an abrasive toothpaste. Or a paste of bicarb and water.

Or change all your mugs for dark ones.
