I have never.....!

PS: I have never wrung a chicken's neck: if I had to I would become an instant vegetarian.

You are very fortunate if you can afford to pay someone to clean your house, clip your hedges, mow your lawn, paint your walls, replace the battery in your beeping smoke detector etc, etc. We should train girls in the skills to turn them into self sufficient women, as far as possible. I have to admit though that my fossil computer gets the better of me, so I employ a nice young man to sort it.

wow Mabon, good for you!

Since my husband died I have done all kind of things which I didn't ever think I could or would do.

I've never been in an aeroplane.
Bungee jumping,mountain climbing, abseiling or parachute jump (of course I'd have to be in a a plane to do that).
I've never had a professional manicure/pedicure.
I've never owned a dog.
Dived off a board as I hate swimming.

I've NEVER ....

Been in our loft - hate spiders.
Ridden a bike, never had one
Learned to swim
Been abroad
Smoked or used drugs
Had a manicure or pedicure
Broken any bones (testing fate now!)
Eaten pizza, or anything else with tomatoes in
Changed a tyre

But I CAN and HAVE

Ridden a horse
Used all the tools my husband has including routers, power saws etc.
Do all the wallpapering
Been up in a balloon
Mow the lawn, cut down trees, do the pruning
Cleaned the gutters
Wash the car
Changed plugs, tap washers, unblocked loos and sinks
Broken into my own house
Baked bread
Run my own business
Built 3 computers
Raised 3 wonderful children

I have never been wrong ( only joking!!) ?

I’ve never filled a car with petrol either. I did not have my own car and very rarely drove as just did not enjoy it at all. I sold the car soon after losing my DH as I knew I would barely use it and it would be an expensive item to keep.

I've been fortunate and achived most of the things I wanted to do so on my never list are things I would not want to do!

Had a tatoo
Read 50 Shades of Grey
Ridden on a motorbike
Been long haul flight of more than 8 hours
Been to the Trafford Centre (apparently I am the only person I know who has not)
Been to a bull fight

I do drive motorways, have ridden horses, climbed mountains, driven in the desert, became a university student for the first time at 50, but the best is being a Grandma.

I have never baked bread. I'm a great baker of everything else, and DIY everything for 28 years as a single mom.

I am just past my mid-60s (?) and am really proud that I have never been drunk
Never smoked a cigarette
And never taken any sort of illegal drugs.
I’m hopeless with electrics and have never changed a plug as that is man’s work!
I’m a dab hand in the garden though and have mown my sloping lawn hundreds of times in 30+ year.
AND I did beat cancer last year as my Lymphoma has now gone, hopefully never to return!

I have no desire to do the things on my never list, including listing them.

I have never had a tattoo.
Never taken illegal drugs.
Never been charged, arrested, or convicted of a crime.
Never filled up the screen washer bottle in my car (I know, that’s terrible)
Never taken my car for it’s MOT (more terribleness)
Never been in our loft
Never knitted a garment
Never been divorced or widowed

And lots more ‘nevers’ really, but also lots ‘have dones’

I'm Jack of all trades. I was left with three children to raise over thirty years ago so didn't have much choice. I'm proud of what I've done in the DIY department but I haven't done any plumbing after I nailed down a loose floorboard and the nail went through the water pipe. Anything that involves water or electricity I'll never touch. I've crawled across the loft a few times years ago to get to the water tank when the ball cock used to stick when we used to have a back boiler. I've been almost to the top of the house on a ladder when the outside walls needed painting. My son finished off. I hate heights and so does he, so you just don't look down. Never again though! A few things I've never done is use self-serve, I really don't like using cash machines unless I have to. I've never learnt to drive and wouldn't want to. I've never been on a plane and don't want to. I've never had a tattoo but wished I had had a little butterfly done on the top of my arm when I was younger. I never learnt to swim, owned a dog ( we have cat's) made a speech, never fallen out with or had a cross word with my best friend of 59 years. Never drank whisky or gin, never taken drugs. Never been perfect. lol

I have never been in a betting shop.
I've never seen 'The Sound of Music'

What are straighteners? Corsets?

I’ve never:-
Had my nails done
Been to rugby match (would like to)
Roller skated
Skied
But have:-
Smoked in my youth (and the other?)
Had a horse
Been to Wimbledon
Been in hot air balloon

Other things I've never done...

had a tattoo
travelled outside of Europe
believed in any God
been skiing
read "50 Shades of Grey"

The things I've never done are things I've never WANTED to do......

despite over 40years of trying have never been able to crochet and id so love to make blankets
never read 50 shades of grey
never learnt to drive due to a medical reason my biggest i wish i could

I've never made a list of the things I've never done.

I've never dyed my hair pink, blue, green or similar
Never had a tattoo
Never been divorced
Never driven a motorbike (been on the back of a few!)

Ive got lots of nevers.

Never smoked, tasted alcohol, run a marathon, learn to ski, never studied a foreign language, never played chess, would NEVER go into my loft, roller skated, ice skated, sky dived etc., what a sheltered (boring) life Ive led!

I have never smoked, marijuana, tobacco, anything. Dad and big brother both smoked, and friends tried to get me to try, but I have never had one puff - and I am so glad!
By the way, said Dad and big brother both had beards, and my DH has one, too - I can recommend it!

I've never had my nails done because I bite. I have never been to a nightclub, never tried cannabis or any other illegal drug and never had a tattoo. I can sort the car out and decorate do the garden etc so there's not much I can turn my hand to

I've never pressure washed a patio.

I learned to put petrol in a car before DH died and I eventually learned how to pump up the tyres a few months ago but it terrified me at first.
