Watching the Johnny English clip posted earlier reminded me of one of MY greatest public failures :o(

So. There I am in Hong Kong. Owner of an International Security Company. Meeting and greeting our employees in the city. We all go (about 20 peeps) to a famous Hong Kong restaurant to eat local food.

One of our employees was the boyfriend of a Brit woman who married then divorced a local man. Her 20 year old son (half English/Half Hong Kong) was teaching me how to use chopsticks.

We finally (because he was so frustrated with my lack of skill) got to picking up the peanut challenge. With the WHOLE table watching.

To this day – I CANNOT use chopsticks in an elegant manner.

Especially because one can’t stab and skewer a peanut into submission i.e. CHEAT.

My bad :o(
