1. Speak Greek fluently - This comes into the sensible category. I know some very basic and random bits of Greek. I know the alphabet which is a good start but not really a whole lot of help in conversation. Leo will go to Greek nursery and school so I don't just want to know how to order a beer or ask where the beach is, I want to be fluent.
2. Swim - I can swim, if by swim you mean not drown. What I would like to be able to swim properly. I do a strange mixture of swimming strokes, a sort of front crawl with my arms and something like the breastroke moves with my legs. It works, just looks a bit odd!
3. Whistle -I don't imagine this would really change my life, or even particularly enhance it, but I've tried and tried and I just can't do it.
4. Sew - Lets hope I'm never in a situation where I have to a sew a button on in order to save my life, I can't really see why that would happen but I couldn't guarantee I would survive. My Mum has tried and tried to teach me to sew but I just go into some sort of trance and accidentally stop listening.
5. Time travel - well, this could be more likely than me learning to sew!
I'll tell you what, if you'll put us up in Cyprus for two weeks, I bet I can teach you to sew in that time ;-)
ReplyDeleteI can sew...in the same way a five year old can sew. Namely it doesn't last five minutes in everyday use and looks like a minor car crash...
ReplyDeleteGreat list!!
You did pass your Brownie Sewing badge - but you also had a lovely Brown Owl!
ReplyDeleteWow, you'd do that for me? That's so kind ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's annoying isn't it!
ReplyDeleteOoh, 5 year olds can sew? Great stuff only a few years before Leo can do it then!
ReplyDeleteI would like to be able to whistle too!
ReplyDeleteXxX
With you on whistling. Why is such a simple-seeming thing so tricky to do in practice? Sigh.
