    Good god. Are you all trying to out do each other on the extra curricular activities section of a job application or something?

    Get a mortgage, a house and a dog.

    I'm just trying to replace the thrill of having a mortgage, house and dog – all of which no longer possess me.

    A marathon would be good, as would sky diving.

    Once had a big list of things I wanted to do. Nowadays the list has a maximum of three items, with each one getting replaced as it gets done. The current list is:
    1. Cycle 100 miles in a day
    2. Run a half-marathon
    3. Do a triathlon

    I had signed up to do both of the first two next month (the Glasgow half-marathon and Pedal for Scotland) but a knacked knee scuppered my training. So when I can, I'm planning on just plotting a route and going and doing them on my own one day rather than waiting for any 'organised' event. And being lame means I can use this time to try to learn to swim, a somewhat necessary skill in order to ever achieve no.3!

    Mortgage instead of renting.
    Learn to surf properly.

    oh, and gallop flat out on a horse….

    That is definitely a cool if scary thing to do – the first time I had a horse flat out was on an ex-champion show jumper though – a big beast which could shift!

    My list (the ones I can remember right now)
    – learn to paraglide
    – learn to kitesurf
    – learn to ride my Lidl unicycle
    – ride the Severn bore (I have vague ideas about going for the distance record in a kayak if the boat I own works on it, but I have to actually try riding the thing first!)
    – win the lottery
    – ride a tandem with my sons (one at a time – maybe buy a triplet though)

    I'm not a very ambitious person really, just want to keep on riding my bike as much as possible, and to pay off my debts.
