Do you have any natural talents?

I can twitch my ears and flare my nostrils.

Admittedly not a very 'cool' talent, but I guess I do it better than anything else I've ever attempted (see sig.)

I guess it would be nice to have a talent that earned me a living.

I'm naturally very observant, I'll spot things from miles away that other people wouldn't see without actually searching for it.

Comes in handy when mountain biking because it means I can see good lines to travel over very easily, so I guess it means I'm also naturally good at cycling (helps that I'm quick aswell.)

Everything I set my mind too tbh.

I'm nicking these two too, although I imagine they're all related as I never set my mind to anything that doesn't interest me and I'm very quick at making an analysis and spotting things.

I suppose mine would be playing pool

You should set your mind to spelling.

I've been good at art for as long as I can remember. So yeh, I guess thats my natural talent.

48 posts and no-one's mentioned sex yet?

I don't actually know because most of the things I think I am skilled at I cant easily measure against other people. How do you measure a grasp of how things work or interact? I can just "see" how things work or how things go together to work, but I don't know if thats a skill I have or what!

I have sung at some pretty big venues across the world when I was younger and was being paid to sing when I was 7 or 8, so I guess thats a skill I had - I haven't sung in several years though.

and striking a football, however im rubbish at skills and tricks, but i can pass/shoot/cross very well. imo

That is exactly how I am at football, rather than trying to use skill to take someone on I will knock the ball past them and run or simply do a long ball.

As for natural talents, I see myself as quite a good natural tennis player, I have never had lessons but played for the school team right through school.

Exams, i can go into an exam knowing virtually nothing, or at least not remembering anything from the course

p), then somehow as im sitting there staring an the questions every thing rel event comes flooding back in images/movies as i read the question, A level physics was the first time I've ever had to revise (and i only did about a week of it at best ,<20hours) to get higher than a C.

****** people, who work, off no end

*i do however fail at any sport that involves movement\coordination greater than darts.

Shooting! No matter what gun you give me, within 5 mins I can zero it in and get all rounds within a 2" circle! I can even hit a moving target at 250ft with a handgun from a kidney holster!

You could build models for a living.

There seems to be quite a bit of money for model ships for the owners and/or museums.

im the same. 12 A's at gcse and 3 A's at a level without a minutes revision.
uni seems harder though, may require some effort.

Aye I think there might be a problem with getting to be arsed to actually study now

I'm 33 and yet to find my talent. I'm sure there's one in there somewhere. So I'll name a "curse" instead. My curse is a total lack of a sense of direction. Honestly, I could get lost climbing out of bed in the morning. I'm useless.

My wife, on the other hand, brilliant artist. Cartoons, watercolour, pencil, charcoal, whatever. It blows me away. And....and she's also blessed with an amazing sense of direction - she can go somewhere just once and know it like the back of her hand. It's a good job I met her really...

I'm exactly the opposite.
You could dump me in the middle of nowhere and I can sense my way home.

At A-levels I spent no more than 2 hours revising for each test. Got 3 A's and a B.
