Bucket List

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

If you're desperate, I'll snog you in Paris. Failing that, I can teach you to ride a bike.

giggirl, Southwark Council were funding free cycling lessons a while back (they may still)...check them out...before the dosh runs out. Otherwise...just buy a bike and teach yourself...I did... at the grand old age of about 30! Or take up PGC's offer. There's nothing to it. Good Luck xxx

To play the piano like the guy in B Bumble and the Stingers 'Nut Rocker',

and the banjo as good as the weird geezer in 'Deliverance'....

Having a twenty eight inch waist and 6' 3" tall.

Seeing the Northern lights.

Experiencing a glockenspectre.

Discovering a pair of Peregrine falcons nesting in the garden.

Being fluent in Mandarin, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Arabic and Glaswegian.

Knowing and understanding the complete works of Shakespear.

Receiving something good from a brown envelope.

Spending an evening with Peter Ustinov, Charles Dickens and Ho Chi Min.

Find a soul mate whilst I can still do it.

And yet you express dismay when that nice Rasta man in Northcross Road calls you "sweetness"!

That's what I was gently suggesting.... ;-)

Should be safe as well I think.

You mean 'hard pad' and 'distemper' surely.

[Sandperson]

Sorry Ruffers. Didn't read you post after the boring name calling. :))

[ratty]

For me it is soppy - but see my children get married - meet my grandchildren - that's it!

Would it help if I pointed out it's even easier to get tickets to the Temple of Doom?

[Ladymuck]

Oh my goodness...just seen all of this...

Ruffers, my apologies, I too didn't see the bit about tickets in your post...did you add it as an edit? only I haven't had a chance to go back until now...but thanks very much for that.

And sandperson, equally to you...thanks very much for the link.

Last night I received a real surprise of a PM from another lovely forumite (Mr. X) who "knows a man who can get tickets"...there are no guarantees...but he is going to try for me - which is really kind. My fingers are crossed. But if his efforts lead to nothing, then I shall definitely try both your links. So MASSIVE thanks to all three of you. I am so so excited, it's unbelievable.

[Annasfield]

I've offered you one on the Kop for next season too - don't fancy that one in your United colours and a green and gold scarf?

[ruffers]

I stood on the Kop once wearing a Man City shirt..... under several layers. Needless to say I didn't have to suppress any cheers at all as City got nowhere near scoring.

[LegalEagle-ish]

Get back down to ten stone!

Hunter S. Thompson must be spinning in his grave.

The Kop eh? Liverpool...the only serious rival to Man. U, in my opinion.;-) Now that would be some match...I may well take you up on your offer next season...thanks Annasfield. xx

Unless it's entitled "How I survived a lightning strike" - better finish the novel first.

Apologies for completely going off the deep end this morning. Myself and the end of my tether have long since parted company, but that was no excuse to call anyone names. I just find that it's impossible to write anything with any degree of thought or sincerity on the forum these days, mired as it is in the puerile and snide.

As for my subsequent post, again, apologies. I should have said something at the time rather than just editing my original post, but HAL, your ebay sleuthing last week made me deeply deeply uncomfortable. BBW was roundly slated for similar facebook behaviour and I found it really creepy.
