Ideas for my List

I've got to 71 things so far. Some of these won't make it to the final list probably, but I'm getting there. I'm scouring other peoples list for inspiration too, so I'm sure I'll be adding to it. I'm going to see if I can get the 101 things finalised before I actually start. I'm posting what I have so far in case others can get some ideas too! Some of them are things I've always wanted to do, some are things I need to do, and some are just fun stuff! Life sometimes has a habit of getting in the way of things. I love going to museums, but I haven't been to one for a couple of years, so this is a way of making me do something I enjoy. M and I booked a glider flight once, but when we got there it was so foggy that there was no point in going up. A month later, we had been flooded and never really had the money after that. So anyway, these are some of my ideas.
