Default The BE 'Bucket List'

So what's on your list of things to do before you kick the bucket.....presuming you have the time?

1. Start a thread on BE about top five things to do before you die - Check
2. Have my username changed to Gobbledegeek
3. Get fit enough to play a whole 80 minutes of rugby
4. Make a success of my newly established business
5. Bed Vanessa Paradis (while she sings Joe Le Taxi)

(4.5 Persuade Johnny Depp to grant me #5)

...but ya gotta have dreams....?

I can't imagine anyone not having dreams, hopes or aspirations, no matter how happy one is with their lot. It doesn't necessarily have to be base jumping or sex with a Great White but it might be as unassuming or seemingly insignificant (to others) as teaching your cat to flush after using the toilet or learning how to crochet.

1. Get married on a paradise Island with Billy Connelly as the preacher (read about his marriage and it sounded fantastic)

2.Tell my ex boss what a waste of time she was and I didnt leave for personal reasons, it was her!!:curse:

3. Manage to have s*x in a mini again (Old type)

4. Get the courage to go on the "incredible hulk" ride in Florida (just couldnt do it and really wanted too)

5. Still not decided on creamation or burial so ensure there is a glass coffin maker and OH is prepared to keep me in that until my mind is made up

Thats it and I am still thinking!! Honest
