Oh, I want to be good at singing sex!!!

Reading back over this entertaining thread it seems to me that there are people who are sure there are things they are good at and some people who are rather more tentative about their talents.

I'm great at singing sex and public speaking Terrible at mechanics !

Staunch, loyal and appreciative friend.

Perseverance in adversity.

All things financial

Having thought about the leg-pulling from family and friends, here are my three answers:

I'm really bad at time management! I never know what time it is, and it always seems to be gone before I've done half of the things I meant to do! I hate being late, though - and almost always arrive early, wherever I should be. I once attended an appointment one whole week early!
