New film out soon with Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman called 'The Bucket List'
Its about two guys who are terminally ill, but want to do as many things they always wanted to do, before they 'Kick the bucket'..(die)
Thats the gist of it.
I was thinking... God forbid any of us was in that position, but imagine you were...what 'things' would you like to do..

I want to meet Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman! Both men are icons.
I'll have to think about my real bucket list, though.

What if you were too tired to even think about doing anything?

Take a pill that turns the clock back to when I was 17
Take another pill which 'freezes' the first one forever!

Oh Carole I've done those! (apart from the 'Bankjob'!)......they're certainly worth doing when full of health too!.......Barbara and I have always flown with American Airlines on our trips to the States, best Ticket prices too!
Right, my Bucket list......
Swim in the hot Geysers of Iceland whilst it's freezing!
Visit Cape Town
Visit Kennedy Space Centre to see a real Rocket
Get up real close to a Crocodile/Alligator
Drive a '59 Cadillac drophead
Visit Great Wall of China
Visit the Scandinavian Countries
Journey to the top of the CNN Tower, Toronto
If I were actually 'dieing', I'd like my last Meal to be thought of and prepared by Clarrissa Dickon-Wright of 'Two Fat Ladies' fame......I used to love watching their Cookery programme, still do!
They're hardly Recipes for Slimmers, but if I'm gonna peg out, who cares?!!

Gosh, Carole, you and I have similar "wants". I always wanted to go to Venice and Niagara Falls and did both last year!
I always wanted to visit England too, and you may remember I did that too, if only for a very brief visit to London!
For my "bucket list". Hmmmm. I don't want to think about it.

Hope you have a great time Carole, though be warned Venice is very crowded!.......the main areas are thronging with people, but just turn down some side alleys where there's usually a few things of interest and not too many people, be sure to take a Gondola ride, not cheap, but it's great to sit back and watch beautiful Venice all around you!

See the Grand Canyon.
Get a hole in one.
Play golf at Gleneagles.
