Then we had a cuppa tea and Charlie had a think

New definitions: tea-dance.

The dance you execute after you've lost your balance to try and make sure the overfull cup of tea spills onto [livejournal.com profile] hendybear's tea-coloured carpet, rather than his pristine white bedding.

(I succeeded, by the way.)

An old friend of mine possesses two uncanny skills, the first of which is the ability to spill tea. Fortunately the second is the ability to interpose one or more of his legs1 between the tea-bearing vessel and whatever is beneath it.

[1] Generally only more than one leg while sitting. Generally.

I have the uncanny ability to spill red wine on carpets. Particularly on pale carpets; just ask [livejournal.com profile] leathellin.

I don't possess a second corresponding uncanny ability, but I'm quite good about clearing up after myself.

That sounds pretty uncanny to me.

I'm not sure whether you win or lose one kudo for that :)
