When I passed my test at 17 my dad would not let me drive my car until I could change the tyre, check the pressure, refill the wiper fluid and check the oil.
I can do those. And I have insisted all 3 of my boys can also do them all. They drove an old banger so still need those skills.

I'm prone to overtightening the nuts though! I'm not sure jumping on the brace is in the handbook!

They don't come in very handy as a police officer unfortunately 😉
Surely you danced while directing traffic?!

A fellow former radio officer? I got to 25wpm or 20 if taking a different stream in each ear... can just about tap out my own name nowadays... and the thought of ever being a tower monkey again would give me nightmares... some skills deserve to be lost!
