    A girl at work ( who is only 19) has compiled a bucket list, which frankly is mahoosive. It's got me thinking about one for myself.

    Do you have one and what is in it?

    Intrigued to know others goals, dreams and ambitions.

    I've made a start on mine:-

    Go to Dobbies on Thursday, uninterrupted to peruse their wares in tranquil peace. ( trust me, THAT is a goal in itself!! )

        It's a list of things you want to do/achieve before you khark it.

        Gonna have to re think mine now, on account of getting a new Girlfriend. Don't want to be aiming for the things that I was with the old one, that wouldn't be right.

                I do not think I could possibly do or wish for more than I already have done
                I aint got long left to go anyway, and I am not a material person, so no wants
                or wished I had's

                  Great attitude, Jack McHL, I want to do lots of things but worry about running out of time. Sometimes it's best to just....breathe.....

                    I don't have a particular "bucket list", but I do fancy a hot air balloon experience. Recently discovered I could cash in some Tesco vouchers for one and I was :yes: :dancy: raced to show Mr Mum .... :hate-shocked: :nonofinger: .

                    So, it would be me, myself and I that took the trip. Now, don't get me wrong - I have no problem doing things on my own, going to places on my own or, in being an "individual"; but, I have found by doing that, *others* look at me strangely :heehee: (not a problem, but it does wear a bit thin sometimes) and, just sometimes, I would like to share my experiences with Mr Mum.

                    :scratch: Maybe I should write Mr Mum's bucket list for him and include a balloon flight :whistle:

                    I think I'm more of an "opportunist" than a planner, anyway; for example:
                    I never planned to go to New York; I took the opportunity when it arose.
                    I never planned to go teaching in China; I took the opportunity when it arose.
                    I never planned to get a degree; but, it happened.
                    Never considered going to Gibraltar; it happened anyway.
                    Etc., etc..

                    On the other hand, it might be worth considering what I may regret *not* doing/achieving with my life. :scratch:

                        I wondered that too, thinking maybe this thread was about visiting Morrisons for more cheap flower buckets again :)
