There are lots of clever people around but there seems to be less people with commonsense .
Take my kids for instance , yes they get by and yes they are clever too but ask them to do a simple task and then watch them , they then become stupid and thick or could it be clever.
The other day i asked could they hover the house and all was well until they started the stairs.
It wont reach the top i heard then say, what wont reach the top i asked, the cable is to short to get to the top of the stairs.
After looking at them and trying to see if they can figure the problem out before i explained how to remove the plus and taking it up the stairs then to re-plug it into a socket on the landing, there face looked amazed or was it they thought i would have done it.
Well they now know how to move a plug from socket to socket the next trick is to show them how the pots gets out of the sink into the cupboards all cleaned too.:doh

Being perfectly honest Stevie, hovering a house is quite a stunt, I think even I would struggle with that!!!! Hehe
