So, what can you play? Any instrument you still hope to learn one day?

I played drums to a reasonable level, probably not so much now.
I had a few bass lessons but I only had a white bass guitar which was a bit bent, also I was rubbish at it.
I wouldn't learn any other instruments now, bit old hat innit, it's all computers now for that repetitive 'boom boom' music kids like, or 'Rap' music, 'CRAP' music I call it!!! LOL

I can play bass, it's well easy.
It's true that I'm a bit shit at the drums.
I can play guitar very competently, I have grade seven piano and I'll bash out a tune on pretty much any instrument that is similar to either of those two.
I'm not so good on instruments that require blowing, although I did learn French Horn for about a year.
Kind of regret giving that up.
