Help With The Challenge "Continue"

I'm Working On The Challenge "Continue", and with my code below, I keep getting this error, "Bummer! Didn't Find The Right Items Printed!" But I don't see where my code went wrong.

breaks.py 
def loopy(items):
    for item in items:
        if items.index == 0:
            pass
        else:
            print(item)

Hey Albrino, I am not sure if this is the same challenge as I did however if it is it is asking you if the character at index 0 of the current item is the letter "a", continue

your if statement is off: if items.index == 0

try

if item[0] == "a":

continue

this says if the item at index 0 is an "a" than we continue on to the next. Pass is just a place holder it doesn't actually do anything.

I hope this helps.
