I quite forgot that at the beginning of the year I wrote myself a Bucket List ! It’s been sat in my bedside drawer for nearly six months now. Now I’ve rediscovered it, I thought I would put it up on the blog. This might help me get a wiggle on. 🙂

So there you have it. I’ve actually managed three already this year, which is a good start. I’ve read To Kill a Mockingbird and it was as good as everyone said, I went on a night out down Canal Street with some work mates ( Interesting!) and Wil and I thoroughly enjoyed The East Lancs Rail Ale Trail Tour from Bury to Rawtenstall. This gives me two and a half years to attempt the rest.Maybe I should book that Llama trek. 🙂
What’s on your Bucket list??
Dutch pancakes are delicious! Good choice 🙂
I want a picnic hamper! I’ve told Jan several times but he’s yet to take the hint and buy me one for my birthday 😉
Oooh I’ve just bought one.From a Charity Shop actually.Hope to use it soon!!
Oooo I had a champagne picnic in Bath last year with my hamper – proper glasses and china plate etc – it is a lovely experience! Gisburn Forest do outdoor films in the summer (or watch your laptop in the garden!) What was Canal Street like? I’d love to have a night out there. I love your To Do list, have lots of fun with it x
Oooh the picnic sounds amazing.I didn’t know they show open air films in Gisburn forest.I will look into that! Canal street was fun.Lots of sights.Lots of drag queens.And er lots of free condoms!x
Great list and good to see you’ve ticket three off even though you haven’t been looking. I’ve never written one. May be I will.
Yay I hope you do.:)
I love your list. I did have a Life List but I want to revise it. Thanks for the prompt.
There is a Lido in Ilkley. I’ve never been.
I can recommend Harrogate Turkish Baths. Lovely and traditional architecture. It’s very reasonably priced. I took my friend as a 40th treat.
I too have a plan for a picnic. I have 2 picnic baskets that I’ve never used.
Oooh Yes I have heard of Ilkley Lido and the baths in Harrogate.They would both be perfect for my list. I hope you get to go on a picnic this year.X
Great list! Crochet is a wonderful hobby!
I hope I can get into it sometime.Feels like it may be an Autumn pursuit.:)
With regards to number 7 I can recommend Somerset House in London. We did a double bill there the first summer we were together – Was lovely!
Sounds fab.:)
Love this list! 🙂 I think they’re such a great idea, sounds quite similar to mine. What’s an Honesty Box Meal?
Hi thanks for the comment. You know when you are in the countryside and see little signs on the side of the road saying eggs or veg for sale , with a little box to put the money in. That kind of thing. Thought it might be a good idea when camping….but not got round to it yet!
Oh that’s so sweet, I’ve always wanted to do that too. But since contactless cards I always find myself changeless! X
Ha yeh they are far to handy! The Queen doesn’t carry cash…and we are all now following in her footsteps.;)
Hahah! I like the way you think 😉
