And what was it?

I'm struggling to think of anything recently - not good for me

Bother - wish I didn't have dyslexic fingers - that should have read "When was the last time you did something for the first time"

Hi Trevor. You can edit the thread title within five minutes and edit your posts indefinitely.

Last summer I went on the back of a motorbike for the first time and in November went to my first technical conference (phpnw) and next month I hope to have my first photography show. I guess I like being scared

Also important though is to find something you like doing and keep on doing it, that way leads to being good at something!

Great forum topic!

A couple of weekends ago I welded (If you can call it that) for the first time.

On monday we started decorating our lounge for the first time

I've just got through a hospital appointment in under an hour for the first time...

Typical - they get their act together just in time for my last one!

I also had my new employee working in the office for the first time last week - scary, but exciting too...

For the first time on Sunday- I did not lose my temper despite the fact I had a man yelling at me for a good ten mintues in front of a crowd. And I swear, that's the first time I bit my lip, let him get it off his chest, and walked away, dignity intact. Ah, the joys of customer service- after fourteen years in the industry I've learnt how to manage my mouth!!

I'm always doing new things. Sadly most of them are Internet based - perhaps I need to get out more.

A couple of recent new things:

I joined this place and started placing the occasional advert (on the board where we're allowed to). I'm happy with the results so far.

I contacted the general manager of a top hotel in Malaysia and asked him if I could meet and interview him. He replied to say he'd be delighted. Must try some more of this!
