This was a game we were playing here a few years ago. It's quite simple - post something that you've never done with the lead in "never have I ever...". The next person to post must have done the thing the previous poster hasn't done, and posts something they haven't done with the lead in "Never have I ever ...". Well, you get the idea. I'll start:

I abseiled from the Euromast in Rotterdam. It's not exactly jumping, but I hope it's close enough.
Never have I had a broken bone.

If winding up with a house full of teenagers a decade-and-a-half later qualifies, then I guess I have paid the price.
But never have I ever owned a purebred or deseigner doggie.

I reckon anyone making a good enough case for an answer gets it. So will it be Sioni or Jacobsen who comes up with the next 'Never have I ever'?
Oh, and usually we have a 24 hour rule if nobody can come up with an answer, in which case it's then up to the next poster after the deadline to pose the next 'Never have I ever'.

I have never met a C of E bishop, though I do have one as a Facebook friend and I once met Lord Runcie at my old church before I swam the Tiber to become RC. Does that count?
I have never gone more than 112 MPH in a passenger car, though I may have gone faster on a motorcycle.

I may have gone faster than 112mph on a motorcycle, but as it was an MZ150 with a broken speedo (amongst other parts) in the field behind my brother's house I rather doubt it.

This will be a good a time as any to remind people that the trick in this game is to post something that it is quite possible that some people on the ship have done i.e. not 'Never ever have I been to Jupiter' or some such. Chorister, Host
Now, back to that trip to (the country) Iceland....

I've been on the border between Thailand and Burma.
We were in a bamboo hut on the shores of a magnificent lake in the middle of the rain forest. We were all set for a beautiful, quiet night ...
... when at 2am, suddenly a Japanese karaoke boat arrived on the lake, with people singing extemely loud and very out of tune
Never ever have I enjoyed listening to karaoke

I have, but only once. It was at a party with a lot of singing friends, so it was one of those extremely rare occasions when the karaoke was being performed by people who can actually sing.

I have watched that movie several times, although not as often as I have watched "Elmer Gantry."
But never have I ever hiked in the Grand Canyon - yet.

I can't claim to have mastered the art of a good souffle, but I think I can be said to have achieved entry-level "have baked" status.
Now let's see if I can not kill the thread by confessing that I have never put up dry wall. [ 01. December 2012, 13:52: Message edited by: Hart ]
