Having watched them with my sons til me eyes and ears bled, I find that I can still quote along with most of Fireman Sam...

Doesn't have quite the same cachet though

I think Fireman Sam is a safer bet with the wee'un though Sarz :-)

AP, me thinks Shen and you doth protest to much....

I never said word but now you mention it I second AP's opinion so you are outvoted

I am a Maths teacher. Does that count?

[out in the cold]

Oh yeah. I am quite good at pub quizzes, due to the sheer volume of useless factoids that I know

Really? Good!

Tell me this is wrong, please? Pretty please?

Example: Your waistline measures 66cm (equivalent of a 26″ waist). You are making a full circle skirt from 2 semi circles so you need to factor in the 4 raw edges that will be your 2 side seams. 66 + 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.5 + 1.5 = 72cm – this is your Circumference. 72 ÷ 3.14 = 30cm (diameter). Your radius is 13.5cm (half of your diameter minus 1.5cm seam allowance).

I am an expert in dabbling- at most things....including sloth and procrastination

...and doing a reasonable , basic job at most things. Problem is that I never progress above average!

Other concern is that I never know what I'm going to be bestist on any particular day! *sighs....

Actually 72 divided by 3.14 is 22.9

I dont understand anything else. That's Home Economics

[julesapple]

Thanks OITC. That's much appreciated!

I understand the Home Ec, but I knew the math was wrong. There's no way I was taking scissors to fabric until I knew it was wrong;

So my waistline radius is 11cm. Okay. I can now cut out a circular skirt with accuracy.
