People are sharing the everyday things they’ve never done and some of them are right gobsmackers
It started when a chap called Paul Clarke took to Twitter to say he’d never had a Subway and his dad had never used a cash machine. And it got him thinking …
My dad's never used a cashpoint. I've never eaten a Subway. What's the most ordinary thing you've never done (and are possibly becoming secretly proud of)?

And there was no shortage of people happy to share the (mostly) everyday things they’d never done. Some of them you’ll feel sorry for, others you’ll probably envy. A lot of them are just gobsmacking.

Never watched a game of football. Don't even know the rules. I thought I could name 3 football players, but it turns out David Beckham has retired and George Best is dead, so I'm down to Wayne Rooney.
