Do you have a bucket list?

Verity

I have cancer and recently started making a bucket list. Does anyone else have a bucket list, what's on it?

Here's mine.

  • Go to Scotland.
  • Create a game.
  • Start collecting vintage Barbie dolls.
  • Write a book.
  • Write a song.
  • Visit London.
  • Get a dog.
  • Get a cat.
  • Run a marathon.
  • Learn about electrics.

  • Hi Verity - me too - I'm 5 months into a 6-month prognosis - feel free to message me if you want to talk to someone in the same boat.

    I'm a chartered engineer but I picked up an electricians qualification - it's not very hard to do.

    My current bucket list:

    Have a cheeky Nandos

    Beaulieu car museum

    Sit by coast / sea – enjoy atmosphere

    Witness a solstice

    Photos in the bluebells in the woods

    Prime steakhouse

    Minehead Labrador experience

    Weymouth / build a big sandcastle

    Chester Roman stuff & zoo

    Colchester Roman stuff & zoo

    Disney Florida – last time

    Fly an FPV plane or drone

    Sail my boat

    Sit in Mosquito cockpit

    Duxford museum

    Coach trips around the country

    Ride in bubblecar

    Ride a moped/scooter

    Afternoon tea somewhere

    Learn to weld

    Swindon train museum

    Drive a bus

    Go to an Antiques fair

    live until Christmas - go to the local church service.

    Hey, just saw your post, and it made me think of my bucket list. Creating a game sounds like a fun and unique goal. And collecting vintage Barbie dolls? That's such a cool hobby! Writing a book and a song are awesome creative goals as well. London is definitely worth a visit, such a vibrant city. Having a furry friend can bring so much joy, whether it's a dog or a cat. Running a marathon is a fantastic challenge! Learning about electrics sounds interesting too. Thanks for sharing your list. If I may suggest, you could add to your bucket list [link removed by Moderator]  some traveling... hmm, for example, to a tropical island or learning a new language.

    That’s an impressive list, which I need to try and think out somethings, but having great difficulty with anything others than surviving and trying to avoid the taxman clobbering my family wealth.

    I was wondering about going nomadic or finding Scottish bothies
