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

This is an eye opening thread. Thank you chicken. I have never:
been able pass a maths exam;
been to New Zealand;
learned to knit;
had any kind of beauty treatment (except hair cuts);
been in a helicopter or hot air balloon.

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.

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

I've never:

had a (full) driving licence
been on a plane
eaten sushi
been to a pop concert
had a perm

I’ve never-
Filled a car with petrol or diesel.
Had a tattoo.
Been skiing.
Learned to play musical instrument ( wish I had)
Run more than 100yards!

I have never:-
Sky dived
Driven a bus
Eaten a lobster
Visited China
Been skiing
Been on a cruise

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

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.

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

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 😁

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

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 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!

Taken part in any sport apart from at school.
Been to Disney World, China, India, Russia Australia, New Zealand - don't want to either
Stolen anything
Hit anyone
Swear. et al.

Never Rode in a hot air balloon in Turkiye ..

Never have been to China ..

Never lived in a "house" ( always a flat - we are a family of urbanists ) ..

I have never:
Scuba dived (would like to though)
Knowingly taken drugs (except when I was 20 and took diet pills not knowing they were 'speed')
Liked getting up early
Like baked beans
Liked anything aniseed-y

Or have I?

We'd like you to come down to the station and answer a few questions, Madam. You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in Gransnet. Anything you do say may be given in evidence.
🤣🤣🤣

Thanks for the first laugh of the morning!

I have never
Smoked
Drunk alcohol
Had an affair
Gossiped
Told a lie

Your list reminds me of the old joke: If I don’t smoke, don’t drink and don’t go out with the opposite sex will I live longer? No, it’ll just SEEM longer
However, I love your second post.
However,

I must be in the minority here:
I’ve had several tatoos (all recently)
I used to take recreational drugs
I love Game of Thrones and Lord of the Rings

I have never
Been unkind to an animal
Been to a bullfight
Done heroin
Invested in the stock market
Known my grandfathers

Driven a bus
Been to a spa
Collected postage stamps
Liked Oasis
Been to Italy

I have never:
watched Simply Come Dancing
learned to swim
been camping or caravanning
made a soufflé
had a facial or any other kind of "beauty treatment".

I have never
read or watched Harry Potter
driven a manual car
taken any exams (driving test)
learnt to swim
Smoked or take drugs

A 6th one for me. I have never read or watched any Harry Potter stories and have no interest in doing so.
