Thank you, I'm glad. Yes, I have the same issue that's why I'm practicing them and trying to get them into muscle memory more than my head (I don't have a great memory either). I think that we'll have to tie these a good few hundred times to get them to stick. I'm willing to put in the effort, I think it's worthwhile, don't you?
Interestingly enough, this morning I found myself in a situation where I needed to tie a set of fake flowers to a décor item and I smiled, made a Bowline knot and felt very chuffed with myself. It stayed exactly where I needed it the entire day too.
I think I'm with you on the mountaineering though, I think I'll leave that to professionals. Also, I'm way too scared of heights for it so tying knots is the least of my worries 🤣

AHhaa really? Like how much? Do you get dizzy and all that? Not sure if I'm scared of heights, but not gonna lie that looking down it does make my legs wobble.
Consider yourself lucky that you don't have it. I get quite bad dizzy and wobbly spells when I'm up high somewhere. Sometimes even standing on a balcony will make me woozy, so I have to try the "don't look down" mantra 🤣

It's totally worthwhile, especially for outdoor activities and fishing. I wouldn't rely on my knot abilities for climbing though o\
