Been to New York! I've always wanted to go to the place my paternal granny was born, Brooklyn. She told me endless stories about growing up there in the 1900s and twice I was booked to go and twice something happened to stop me. Feel I shall never go now.

Oh do try, New York is so interesting. Don't stop just with Brooklyn though I understand that would be your primary interest. All the boroughs are so different. And if you do go, take the ferry not to Staten Island, but the one that takes you to Governor's Island, the seemingly little known gem in New York harbour.

Oops now to answer the thread.
I've never been to Greece but would love to.
I've never had a decorative tattoo only a medical one.
I've never eaten oysters and don't ever plan to try.
I've never skied, wish I'd tried when younger.

Or never smoked (not even tried, absolutely hate the thought of it, oh and never ever been drunk, can’t see the point in making yourself ill through it as I don’t like been ill though it).

Drunk a cup of coffee. The smell of it makes me heave. Had a sip but just tastes horrible and bitter to me .

I have never
Had a really close friend ?
Learned to swim, despite numerous lessons my feet just find themselves back on the floor!
Felt the need to be 'houseproud.'
Enjoyed cooking
Felt unloved ?

Probably lots more, but that's enough.
For those of you regretful non-singers.....just join a Community Choir. You will be made welcome, and might surprise yourself. Most new members swear that they have terrible voices!
Too old to learn an instrument? An 82 year old lady joined the beginners' class at our local brass band, and is learning to play the cornet. She'll never be much good, but she's having a great time trying!

Dempie55 Thu 17-Mar-22 13:26:18

There is evil in this world. I do wish there wasn't.

Sung in front of an audience (other than karaoke). But tbf, nobody would want to listen if I did. I mean, it would probably hurt their ears. A lot.
