If you had a "things to do or see before you die" list (Bucket List), what would you put on it?
I've put a few here (some do-able, some not so do-able!). What are yours?

(In no particular order.....)

See CCFC promoted to Premier League again
Visit Rome
Swim with dolphins
See the Grand Canyon
Sea fishing off the Florida coast
Become fluent in another language
Go to a real New Orleans Blues bar
Master a musical instrument
Complete a solo sky dive
Visit the wreck of theTitanic aboard a submarine
Drive along Route 66
Drive a Formula 1 car around Silverstone

Id like to travel. Not just have your usual summer holiday destinations. Wish I could find the effort to do it, even alone if need be! Surely theres so much out there for me to see!

To see City competing in the premiership, rather than fighting relegation (as i did most of my time following the City).

Im not extravagant enough to think of any more......(and hopefully have many more years left in me before i kick the bucket)

Being fluent in another language is definitely one I'd like to do.
To find a job I'm passionate about.
To manage a football team (easily achievable)
To move abroad for a year or two and finally get it out of my system.
To have kids and not balls up bringing them up.

Like Blueflint My major one would be to go to the Moon or another planet ,not in some tourist way but as part of a mission just to carry out some mundane but necessaryfacilities /construction type role.Possibly where there is no option of returning due to logistics ,maybe ten years down the line yet ,but never the less something i would consider.
Failing that to finally do the double,the missus and her best mate ,maybe for my birthday ,only 3 weeks to go. :facepalm:

EDIT; Failing that Rebecca off Mature Dating ,she's only 3 miles away and I can still make the game tommorrow.

I would love to visit Machu Picchu, pyramids of Giza, Chichen Itza, Rome.
Own a Shelby GT 500.
Restore a classic car.
The one thing that will never happen is to live until the year 3000, just to see how much the world has changed.
can't be bothered to put anything else.....

Maybe I am just weird, but I honestly don't have a bucket list and when I saw the thread I tried to think of something, but came up with nothing.

Can't think of anything I want to do before I die.




Maybe I should just die perhaps.

Well if I did have a Bucket List, going to Russia for Christmas would definitely be on there.



It would be just behind 'wearing a pair of barbed wire underpants coated in red hot chilli powder and Deep Heat ointment.'

Wait, is Hong Kong counted as a country?! Just to make you jealous LG, I'm going away in July for a year - ending up in Brazil for the World Cup! So from July onwards I'm pretty much doing my bucket list.

We wouldn't even know if she popped it let alone get an invite.....

you don't need an invite to attend a funeral
Hacketts would like the money up front as it would be unlikely that seppala family would pay the bill.

If I'm counting Wales I'm certainly counting Hong Kong.

Very nice mate! You got a round the world ticket then? Where you off to first?

Got to admit Brazil for the WC is still very much on my radar. Although I reckon it might take either a large lottery win or the missus walking out on me. And I know which is more likely.
