Morning everyone, so Confucius apparently said "If it wasn't for Venetian blinds it would be curtains for all of us"
Well maybe he didn't but as a single guy yesterday I had the dubious pleasure of buying some curtains for my spare bedroom; The lady who showed me the size told me not to forget to gather them before hanging and something told me she wasn't referring to picking them up before I left the shop.
This morning I looked on You Tube and found out what she was talking about and how to do it and now have a pair of hung curtains and it got me thinking - What did we do without You Tube, what's the best way it's helped you in the past? |

I've used you tube for shibari tutorials. I'm such a slow learner and would be likely to lag behind at workshops. With YT I can pause and rewatch until I get it. |

Same! Takes me forever to get it using the books |

Slightly different to gathering curtains but a great thing to watch  |

"I've got several recipe ideas off YouTube
Combined a few ideas to build a friend's fire pit
Found a way to open a bottle of wine without a corkscrew. "
Ha Ha, all useful stuff though |

"Before you tube, and the Internet for that matter we just just got on with it and did stuff. If you got stuck there was always a friend or neighbour who could help out."
Very true F&P - but YT maybe does make it easier and quicker to sort something |

Definitely though I admit to using it for watching daft stuff too. |

I use YouTube for literally EVERYTHING, but it's taught me so much.
I now can make amazing cakes, crochet blankets and baby clothes, know how to clean an oven properly, know how to (passably) cut hair... The list goes on. I think without YouTube I'd just be a gelatinous blob. |

Sure you could fashion some stylish silk cord tie backs for the curtains;-p |

"There is a channel on there called KittenAcademy. It's just a live feed of adorable kittens playing. 
As opposed to Kitty playing"
I was hoping it was her channel to train guys up ready for her  |
