    There are a lot of cheeses I have yet to try.

    Other than that I've covered most of the bases.

    My bucket list:-

    Fire
    Excavator
    Ice

    This is a pointless thread that goes beyond the pail.

    Had carp to 20lb from the River Orb next to house and they have taken me 30 mins plus to get in
    Amazing natural fish
    I catch barbel down there and have had 60 fish in one sitting to 8lb
    It's so good that I plan to run fishing holidays in the future

    Roach had them to 2:6 and I get them from Warnham in Dorset
    Hardest fish to catch the big ones on a river

    Love my fishing also

    Rather than a bucket list there are loads of things that I would like to say that I've done, but lack the courage to do, such as skydiving, bungee jumping, potholing and anything else remotely requiring any sort of backbone.

    I strongly recommend it. If you have not been there, stop off at Grand Canyon on the way ( slight detour! )and get up or stay until dawn to see it then. If you are fit ish, take a walk down to the bottom away from the main tourist ones. Take a tent, you need to camp a couple of nights. The walk up again is tough. Certainly worthwhile and one of the most amazing places I have seen.

    Cheers Oslo, been to Grand Canyon and camped on the ridge, sunset and sunrise, and a flight over - yes, truly amazing.

    I've also hiked to Everest Base Camp - exhausting but also a once in a lifetime trip. Bungee jumped in NZ, walked over top of Sydney Harbour Bridge, visited Alcatraz, Summer Solstice at Stonehenge, watched a space launch from Kennedy Space Centre among other things, so done a fair bit, but Machu Pichu seems to have a draw - would also like to go to Iceland to see good Northern Lights (we get them here sometimes, but too much light polution) - bet you get them good over there? Spent a bit of time in Finland, but they were never active when I was there

    Would that make you an inveterate invertebrate baiter?

    (probably not easy to say when inebriated)

    I seen bits of what was supposedly the northern lights near Oslo, but you need to go much further north in the winter. Everything else pulls me south! I'm in Thailand a lot now, but we do hope to get to Australia and NZ where I have never been before too long.
