Five things I’ve never done. How about you?

I have never done lots of those things, but wanted to do some things in the past that I will never do now. Too old, unhealthy and tired.
Each to our own when it comes to choice!
Some of the things we wanted to do might have been out of reach due to finances and circumstances, and sometimes realisation we wanted ‘ things’ for the wrong reasons, with age comes a certain amount of learning/ understanding… to some! but we can always try new things where possible! I enjoy life thoroughly even with my limitations! Always learning every day which is both a joy and a worry often!
Today I am learning , with the help of YouTube to fix my dishwasher… I hope! If not it will be the inevitable get a person in!

I have:

Never trodden on an upturned plug.
Never done karaoke.
Never watched Friends.
Never found a wine that doesn’t taste like vinegar.
Never skinny-dipped.

I have discovered one more prompted by another thread.
I have never had my ears, or anything else, pierced.

Never had a piercing (including ears)
Never had a tattoo
Never smoked
Never been in a fight (arguments yes 😂 fights no)
Never fired a gun

I thought I had led a tame life 😂 but so many of the things people say that they haven't done or places they havent been to I have! Its quite cheered me up 😁

Gone to the loo in front of anyone
Dropped litter
Broken a bone
Watched Eastenders

Oh dear,
What you people have missed out on.
I have skied, when I lived in Switzerland. Wonderful.
Driven a car, all over Europe in the 70s.
Had a little dog, I miss him still.
Have been to USA, well LA airport on the way to New Zealand.
Come on, live a little.
On the other hand,
I never had a divorce, still time I suppose
Never taken drugs,
Never unemployed.
Never been to a big concert.

Owned a dog, died my hair, had a tattoo, had a manicure/ gel nails, eaten sea food apart from prawns.

I've never:

Travelled beyond Europe - haven't had the means or time to!
Eaten Lobster - because I think cooking them alive is awful
Gone out and about in London - unnecessary
Driven a bus (but I did a breakdown waggon)
Climbed a mountain - not nimble enough

Swum the Channel. An absolutely loopy regret. I've never been much of a swimmer, dare not go out of my depth but would love to say I'd swum the Channel.

This is an eye opening thread. Thank you chicken. I have never:
been able pass a maths exam;
been to New Zealand;

Never been sick in the back of a taxi....... made me think of another "never":
