It’s funny, I never realised what we learn teach ourself over the years to do, I design ways to manufacture products from drawing board to reality including project managing manufacturing

But I can also sketch, paint, I’m ok with wood, I have converted garages and built porches, summer houses ( from scratch) plumbed 4 bathrooms, fitted 4-5 kitchens, basic mechanics, gardening, decking , electrics, and white good repairs wall tiling, painting and decorating, laminate flooring, even fitted double glazed windows... even thatching roofs ( my father was a master thatcher as was his father before him)

But I can’t build anything with bricks useless st it, what you like can you turn your hands to much?

It's a have a go type spirit a lot of women have it these days to, it's not isolated to just men anymore nothing is, women like to use their brains, let's face it why get dirty if you don't have to

Mechanics, stripped and rebuilt engines, pretty good at fault diagnosis as well.

Built my own studio from scratch, timber framing, electrics etc.

Mostly because I used to hate paying other people to do things I could do myself, nowadays i'd rather have the time to do other things more productive

Not bad on the bass guitar

I’m a good cook so I guess that counts.

I'm not particularly good at DIY but I can play a guitar, I can type pretty rapidly and I'm a bloody good shot with a rifle if that counts?

My dad was absolutely brilliant at scale models though, not just the building part but the incredible detail in the painting.

East Sussex

Embroidery, sewing, crochet, calligraphy, growing things, miscellaneous craft type things.

I couldn't list the things I've grown, made, repaired and altered here.

I also help Mr N as builders mate while he renovates our house. There isn't much he can't do from electrical to laying floors. He's pretty good at cars too.

I can mix concrete with one of those giant hand held mixer things but I hate it
