February 2012 sees me turning 40. It's not a massive deal to me, what with 50 being the new 40 nowadays.. and I've already been having a midlife-crisis for the last 10 years anyway. Still I think I'd like to mark it with something special. The conversation follows below. Scroll down for the list.

  1. Documentally
    I've been asked if I would like to do something for my 40th next year. Any ideas? Apparently going to space is not an option.

    @Documentally with enough coke and mintos, we might be able to get you into space; it's the getting you back again bit that's problematic...

  3. Mystery trips seem a bit to risky to me, especially as I often joke about dream locations.

    @Documentally A friend of mine was taken on a mystery trip to somewhere he had said he had always wanted to go for his 40th ...

    @Documentally ... told to bring his passport - he though he was going to NY. Turned out to be Auschwitz. Happy 40th!

  8. So i'm now thinking a list of 40+ 'experiences' I have yet to.. i guess.. experience. I'll pick 40 from the list and attempt to do them over the year.

    It would be fun documenting random activities and I now have an excuse to do things I've thought about but might previously have seemed a bit weird.. or lame. Especially if someone on twitter suggests it.

  10. Although I was a 'young ornithologist', birdwatching will probably not be in the list.

    @Documentally I went on a day trip to the Farnes & since it was breeding season, spectacular sight/pong/noise of masses of seabirds :-)

    @Documentally well, spending a day with a brewery brewing my own designed beer was pretty awesome for my 40th!

  16. I liked the brewery idea and it may well go on the list.

    @richardmackney @Documentally just avoid what I did ; book a hall , set the music and have only 8 out of 70 people invited turn up .

  18. I'm not big on parties if i'm the focal point. I don't mind throwing them. So i'll probably not be doing that. I'd still like cake though.. Obviously.

  21. Thinking something that needs epic training may take up valuable experience time. And hurt a bit.
