    The other week I watched "The Bucket List" and it got me thinking about things that I want to do in my lifetime (including things that I've already had the opportunity to do but didn't first time round). Anyway, my list is bound to get bigger though I plan to start striking things off the list starting at the turn of the New Year so expect photos of me with a mohawk sometime after then :lol:

    Anyway, here's my list and feel free to post yours for others to see:

    Get a mohawk
    Go skydiving
    Go bungee jumping
    Fire a real gun
    Learn to snowboard properly
    Be Amsterdam'd again
    Go on all of the rollercoasters in Disney World
    Be in a film (even if just as an extra)
    Set/break a World Record
    Visit each Continent
    Visit Hawaii
    Visit Australia (stand on top of Sydney Harbor Bridge)

    Ask a stranger for a date
    Visit the 7 wonders of the world
    Spend Christmas/New Year in New York
    Blow/win a load of money in Vegas
    Take a hot air balloon ride
    Watch a whole series of 24 in 24 hrs
    Sleep under the stars
    Read all of Tom Sharpe's books
    Do project 365
    Learn to drive a motorbike
    Cross the Humber Bridge on foot
    Get drunk at Oktoberfest

    Watch all of the Friday 13th films
    Watch all of the Hallowe'en films
    Watch all of the Nightmare On Elm Street films
    Watch all of the Hellraiser films
    Watch all of the James Bond films

    This, in my highly-professional opinion, may be the single greatest thing that anyone's ever typed, written, painted, scrawled, doodled, carved, chiseled, or synced up with Christmas lights... ever.

    Just for the record, from the ancient 7 wonders of the world you can see only one - the pyramids, and one single pillar remaining from the temple of Artemis :)

    And if you're talking about the new 7 wonders.. well that's manageable, but a lot less cool :p

    I'll have to think a bit about my list before I post it.

    There's actually a pretty nifty site for this kind of thing. It's called www.43things.com and it makes it really easy to organize your list. It does limit you to 43 things though but you can add more as you cross some off.

    And I had no clue that's what Bucket List was about, I think I might check it out now.

    I 7 balled one of my mates in a game of pool the other day so there's another one off my list.


    It wasn't as funny as I'd thought because we weren't drunk :lol:
