I have just gone out to lunch at a Japanese place round the corner from work. I used to be a dab hand with chopsticks but today could not co-ordinate my arm from my elbow noooo:
When did that happen - once you know how to ride a bike you can always ride a bike , once you learn how to swim you will always be able to swim - how on earth can you lose a 'skill' that previously you were most accomplished in rubschin:
P.S I wasn't having an epileptic fit or any other such occurence during lunch

You can always cheat and have those chopsticks that Nigella favours. More sort of "Tongs" really. (Chinese type pun noted)

I used to be a whizz at playing 'Jacks ' at school ...had a go the other day with some friend's kids . I should never have come out of retirement noooo:

I can't yoyo or hula hoop any more if it makes you feel better. Tried to show the boys how to do both recently ~ utter failure. noooo:
On the bright side I can still get a kite flying! ;D
