I do love a list. I actually bought a book last year called The 52 list Project, which I haven't got round to using, I have an app on my phone for my shopping list, I even have a list of things I want to write about. I think its stems from my mum, she always wrote a to do list of the housework etc and its such a great satisfaction to cross things off. Back in 2009, I decided to write a bucket list of things I wanted to do before I was 30 which I came across recently, I realised that I had actually crossed quite a few off, not necessarily before I was 30 but still. Some of them I looked at and wondered why they were on there in the first place . I've broke it down into sections below:
Things I have managed to cross off the list.
Things I still want to do.
Things I have removed off the list
New things to add to the list.
1. Been there, done that.
Go to a football match
Go to Paris
Learn to shoot
Go camping
Go on a gondola in Venice
Visit the Grand Canyon
Eat in Dans le Noir
Try oysters
Run a marathon

2. Still to do.

3. What was I thinking...
Learn to ride a horse - I'm not sure why this was on there, I rode a horse in Mexico once (called Machete) and I honestly thought I was going to die that day. Maybe I was feeling brave the day I wrote this list.
Go for Regression - I've heard a few horror stories about this, not sure I quite fancy it now.
4. New things added
See the Great Wall of china
Stay in a cottage near the Lake District with an open fire

I am planning to write this this down and cross try to achieve one thing each year.
