Unusual talents

I’m pretty good at juggling tennis balls, my Dad taught me and I’ve actually been amusing myself in the garden practicing when I’m having a really boring day in lockdown. ??

I'm a very good shot with an elastic band.
I used to shoot the bluebottles off the windows in our works canteen!

Tried that years ago tanith but I was hopeless. ?

I can sing "How much is that doggy in the window" backwards!

I can touch my nose with my tongue.
Actually, I can just get it in one of my nostrils.

MissA: You have stolen my one talent! Must admit it’s years since I attempted it.

My Dad could wiggle his ?! A skill much admired by the grandchildren.

Good grief! MissAdventure ???
I bet that saved you money...not having to buy tissues.
Er...have you ever chewed on some 'foreign object'?

Oh, I've never met anyone else who can do it, Sussexborn.

I did have to check I could still do it before I posted. The old tongue doesn't feel as flexible as it used to be.

Well you can't prove that on here but we'll take your word for it phoenix ?

I kinda knew you'd do that missy...?

That was to MissAdventure

I say! Steady on!
What do you mean by chewing on objects, Gabriella?

Don't be offended, but my predictive text wanted to call you Gangrene.. I wasn't going to say, but it made me titter.

I don't know if it's an odd thing but no one else in my family can spread their toes. I can do both feet.
I can also fold my tongue in half length ways which apparently some people can't do.

I have the amazing ability to hang onto something for years ‘in case it comes in useful’ and then the week after I decide to chuck it I find that use,

Similarly when I’ve lost something and searched and searched in vain for it and give up and order another, the missing object is spotted in plain sight.

I can knock my, and anyone else's, mug of coffee over without even trying, and frequently do. Embarrassing. Ever since I was a cbild my hands have had a life of their own. My eldest son is equally clumsy. When we're together it's a nightmare though very funny.

Phoenix I can sing that too, so I can vouch for it being possible! We could do a duet. Ready now . .

Ok, here we go:

Window the in doggy that is much how

Tail waggly the with one the

Window the in doggy that is much how

Sale for doggys that hope do I.

When standing up with my legs straight, I can wiggle my kneecaps.

I can also spread my toes.

I can wiggle my nostrils without moving any part of the rest of my face.

I can waggle my ears and make my eyes roll in different directions.
I can also spread my toes and pick things up with my toes - my Dad used to say I had feet like a chimpanzee!

I can do the nostril wiggle too Minimoon.

I have just had this vision of GN'ers all over the world sitting trying to waggle ears, wiggle nostrils and spread toes etc

I ve never done any yoga or formal exercise classes but I can touch my forehead with my toe when sitting down and do a full lotus with my legs fully crossed
Isn’t it strange never done anything to make this happen just something I ve always been able to do completely useless trick

My party piece was saying the alphabet backwards at speed

I can also make other people wink just by telling them that I can't. I can't

I can wiggle my ears and also pat my head and circle around on my tummy with the other hand ,
all at the same time .

A few toe spreaders I see. Can anyone else do the tongue "thing" ?
