PROUD TO BE USELESS!!!
« on: November 11, 2009, 09:03:45 PM »
I have decided to stop apologising for my failings. I have never driven a car, don't own a mobile phone, have no idea how to post photos on this site and can't work the DVD system on my T.V. I know nothing about plumbing, electricity, gardening or hanging wallpaper. I couldn't knock up a set of shelves if you offered me a million quid. I lived happily with my kids asking where Mummy kept her tool kit.
The apologising has ended.
I'm Roger. I'm useless. And I'm proud.

Roger, I salute you. You admit your failings; you leave work for the correct person to do - a woman - and you obviously don't get in her way when she's on 'the job'. I do trust, however, that you ply her with cups of tea while she's working, and a large scotch when she's finished!  ;)

Thanks, Vulch. Yes, I happily make a cup of tea for my wife when she's doing some oddjobs around the house. Although it's a bugger trying to pass it up to her when she's repairing slates on the roof.

Someone's obviously shown you how to switch on the kettle, Roger. (No pun intended.) That's an achievement.

Roger you have cause to be proud, you are not just everyday useless but have excelled at it.
