Bed linen - how to hotels get their sheets so crisp and nice?
Glasses - how come, no matter how much I try, I can never get my glasses looking as nice as a minute or so in the hands of an optician?

Make a flat white coffee with a heart (or similar) on top.
Good point, my coffee rarely looks or tastes as nice as the ones in the coffee shop. And the Frau is most likely disappointed it's me serving it as opposed to the buff French man in the said shop.

Reseeding bare patches in the lawn … no matter me following all the experts/RHS advice, picking the correct weather, month, etc etc …. the fckr fails almost every time.

[Did HT mean literally every day?]
I'm going to experience this joy next year. Our back garden is a state. Doesn't help that the resident foxes around here use our garden as their toilet / stash burying spot.

no, I did not mean literally every day....i meant ordinary and/or typical ....like the way every is used in the noun everyman.

Begs a thread...'Things You Can Do as Well as the Professionals'

:thumbsup:
This would actually be quite interesting...to see which skills posters have. I am not sure I will be able to add anything to it though.

I guess there's nothing I can do as well as someone who is professional at it? Apart from my profession. Even then, no doubt there are far better than me

Enforce the law by using any means necessary to deal with serious crimes that go beyond the capacity of the police, but are not tasks for MI5 or the military.

I leave those to The Professionals.
