Never mind, all over now.

Still - I remembered today that one of my special talents is an exceptionally loud clap.
You might be thinking - yeah, right. You might think everyone claps the same volume.
Oh Noes!
I can clap SO loud!
It's all about cupping the hands. I learned it in my school production/ am-dram days.
And as it's technically clapping, Mum can't protest. But I swear, it's the loudest clap in the room. Noisy am us.

Okay I have also been known to whoop when family members are being acknowleged (niece & nephew for example.) But only when officially sanctioned. And I don't stand up. Because I've been asked not to.

Not going back on any of my curses, you've had enough of those.

This post really made me laugh. I do know the logistics behind the loud clap, the whole cupping of the hands thing, but I'm not that good at it. :p

However, I can flip a bottle cap faster and farther than any of you! That is my special talent.

My curse? Eh, just being me.

I just found a video demonstrating the bottle cap flip. lmao!
