I’ve never been on a motorbike. Or even a scooter come to think of it. I’ve never HAD to change a tyre. I’ve practiced a few times, but not been called on to do so properly. I’ve never been to a funeral that ends in a burial. Just a service at a crem. I’ve never played the board game “Mousetrap”. I sense it looks more fun than it is.

A few others which I didn’t think of at the time - Been arrested. Been to a pub on Christmas Day. Visited the southern hemisphere. Closest was Cape Verde. Tried any recreational drugs harder than weed (only tried it maybe twice). So no cocaine, acid etc. Gone fishing. Ridden a horse. Dyed my hair (think the boat has sailed on that one). Spent a night in hospital (discounting when I was born). Played the game “Snake” on the old mobiles. I know it’s a nostalgic reference point for a lot of people but I don’t really know what the object of the game was. Driven an automatic. Or driven on the right. Broken a bone. Been in a bookies. Eaten a toffee apple. Been to a school reunion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of those animal interactions where you realise that our oldest sense of humanity is partly defined by the tame animals in our lives. You don't need to ride a horse to experience it, but I think the warmth and beauty of a horse and their (frequent) tenderness are all worth experiencing at least once as a rider. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be a place where my lunch hour would be partly wasted. HMV + the one other music store (Virgin, Our Price, MVC) and as a bit of a filler, a quick browse in W H smiths of the two or three mags I would consider buying. Can’t remember the last time I bought something from there. Maybe 10, 15 years ago. 3 minutes ago, sidcow said: Mayfair, Penthouse and Playboy? Prompted by the above… Never have I ever bought a porn magazine. And by “porn magazine” I mean grotty, top shelf material. FHM, Loaded, that sort of stuff, yes I have, plenty. The more hardcore stuff, never. Even as a teen I was never really bothered, I wanted to see Natalie Imbruglia mostly naked rather than some woman I didn’t know leaving nothing to my imagination. One for the memory lane thread, but I remember buying FHM once, going up to the counter, the woman serving looking at the mag, looking at me and pulled a disapproving face as she flicked through the pages deciding if I was old enough. Her colleague must have noticed and informed her there wasn’t really an age restriction on that sort of publication and so completed the sale with nothing further said. I wanted to die.
