I'm not one of those ham fisted oafs who can't wrap presents. I don't understand men people who say they can't do it. What's the problem? It's hardly rocket science. I'm not even talking about anything more complex than basic wrapping of boxes.

Can we have a survey so I can identify the occupation of people who can wrap presents and those who can't?
I think sales people are in the can't group. Suspect and /or hope engineers can (but not mechanical engineers!?) and so can creative people and maybe tech guys and nerds.

I've learnt over the years that sellotape is the key - if you basically cover the paper in sellotape you can get a few minutes of enjoyment watching frustrated kids almost at the point of tears. It also stops the miserly/eco-friendly relatives neatly taking off the paper, folding it and saving it for next year.

Sales Director of a IT support Co so I span the spectrum.

I can Wrap and indeed Rap after a few beers.

I can wrap at astonishingly quick speed despite having tiny arms.

That's what those fancy bags that already look like wrapping paper are for.

I have an ex who can wrap presents with no sign of tape being used. They really look like they have been churned out of a machine.

Personally I use enough tape the paper probably wont come off too early!

I am an engineer for the survey 😀

I’m covering a single spring onion in decorative paper for my wife this Christmas.

I’m such a rapscallion. 😉

I also have a fetish for covering Native American hookers in Christmas paper.

PP - just have a think about what you have done. I now have to go to bed in despair.
