Seeing as today is a write off - your bucketlist

[Napster]

No sleep last night, can't really be arsed to do any work today, let's have a bucketlist thread. Places to see, films, plays etc etc.

Comments, recommendations, etc etc as always - let's limit to 20.

1) Listen to Gershwin performed in New York
2) Road trip round the States
3) Write that screenplay!
4) Limoncellos on the Amalfi Coast
5) Go to the Montreux Jazz Festival
6) Get that PhD

I'm sure there's more, and I'll keep adding...

1) - love Gershwin, want to see it in NY!
2) - bit midlife crisis, but something I've always dreamed of
3) Yes yes, procrastination blah blah. But I need to get it on paper at some point
4) Naturally. Without the kids.
5) Just because. Would be amazing.
6) On hold again,because need to earn the money!!! - But plenty of time.

That's a lot of holes to dig or are you just going to leave them on waste ground?

I would like to hunt people I dislike for sport on a Jurassic Park style island.


Keith Allen would be amongst the first.

3) Cycle John O'Groats to Lands End

Cool. Re 3 - didn't the bloke from Beautiful South do this recently? Sounds good if the weather holds up. Not heard of the first one must admit. But now I have, and it looks awesome.

A restaurant by the sea, in Italy. Perfect. ps have you started writing anything at all? Sometimes it's the first paragraph that I have trouble with.

BS you legend. What was the book?

Done both the Montreaux Jazz Festival and cycled Land's End to John O'Groats. I'd like to do both again but enjoy them this time. Ditto Southend at Wembley.

I'd also like a time machine so that I could go back to about 1980 and see the Adrian Belew era Talking Heads.

Keep hassling :thumbsup:

I wonder if bucket lists are more of a bloke thing, I don't have the urge to do any of these things, I just want to be happy and see my children grow up happy and fulfilled.

Hmmm, some of the below might not happen

Learn Cantonese. Been here over two years and just want enough to have basic conversations with locals. I know a few words and that's it (to my shame). As an aside if any kids have the option to take Mandarin as a language do it. At my age and with my career I don't need it. This is fast becoming the second most important language in business.

Marry Emma Bunton. I can see two fundamental flaws with this, possibly 3.

Tick off some more Asian countries. Still not got around to Indonesia (not just Bali), Vietnam, Malaysia and Mongolia which is supposed to be fantastic in summer
