iDaves "44 and just popped my cherry" thread has inspired me to daydream a little about stuff i've never done but seemingly everyone else in the world has:

for me the most recent things that come to mind are:

i've never even touched a harry potter book
i've never driven a "fast" car
i've never been south of the equator
i've never watched the star wars films all the way through without loosing interest

i'm sure the list will grow as people suggest different things... but the questions now out there: what haven't you done?

How much can you know about yourself if you've never been in a fight?

Never had a one to one punch up. Wierd eh? Been in a few mass scuffles but i've never stood there and had it out with somebody toe to toe.

I did once hit somebody over the head with a bag of spuds when I was 10 but it was hardly a fight because he just ran off crying.

never bummed anyone/thing!

Also never:
-set foot in a submarine (being a navy town most people here have somehow or other)
-sailed a boat
-kicked anyone in the knackers
-had a tattoo

I suppose that makes me sound a bit of a wuss really.
Being in [s]paramilitaries[/s] errr, cadets as a teenager and a nurse in adulthood puts a few peculiar or interesting 'haves' in the list though i suppose.

pedantic query. I don't think i have, but let's just say you're out in the woods and overcome with lust and are getting things on when you realise you have a bit of an audience, but you don't think she's noticed so you just think, wtf? and put on a show. does that count? And should you expect a round of applause when you're done?

Stuff I've never done but would like to:

I've never entered a bicycle race.
I've never been 'on tour' with a band I actually play in.
I've never been 'cycle touring' or whatever you want to call it.
I've never been to the Tour de France.

Strangely I've never seen the northern lights either although I've been to Iceland twice. Have seen the midnight sun/midday dark technically although it rains so much in Iceland it's just light or dark with cloud. 😉

Punched someone or been punched by someone in the face

This is turning up some great memories. As schoolkid, there was a rough pub that we could get served in. One night, a bunch of us were in looking like adults, and we heard some noises coming from the back room, a little sort of function room with a square of laminate flooring to dance on. We went to see, because it sounded a bit like a fight. In fact, it was the Thursday Night Punch In the Pus Contest (god knows if it happened any other night). The rules - very simple. Two men face up to each other on the "dancefloor" and someone tosses coin. Winner goes first, and strikes (a Punch) the other in the facial area (The Pus). Assuming the Punchee doesn't fall down, the Punchee becomes the Puncher, and gets to punch back. And so on, till one of them does fall down. Winner is last man standing.

I have never taken part in a Punch In The Pus Contest
I have however seen one of my schoolmates get punched in the pus so hard he took off

I have never......

pulled out at the last moment and redecorated a fair lady's upholstery.

(been tempted a few times, but she'd probably punch me in the pus, wilfully discharge a firearm in my direction and then kick me in the knackers)

I've just realised that I clearly have entered and ridden a bicycle race!

Edit that to "I have never ridden a road race" 🙂

allthegear. Unfortunately you'll have to put that in never will category. As the shed drop and the rest of that bike park are no longer open. I wanted to do that as well, as it was closed i settled for the Chattel road gap. Unfortunately i came up a few inches short and broke my arm pretty badly!
