Simple Things You Just Cant Do ....

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

Was talking with some work colleagues today and admitted that I cant parallel or bay park to save my life .... I never learnt as I knew it was never tested in the place I was taking my test.

So what simple everyday tasks do you struggle with (and are a bit embarrassed by)?

This I used to take them to work for someone to tie and then I’d bring home. This year I managed two in four hours and very bruised numb fingers at the end of it
