Got another text from someone I hadn't spoke to for a few months (Tina). She asked if I'd been up to much. I replied I had jumped out of a plane, been snowboarding and was trying to buy a house. She replied had I made all that up.
I guess it does sound unlike me, considering I'd done nothing much in the last 2 years. Until the last couple of months.
I feel like doing something else a bit nuts or exciting. Only problem is it will need to be cheap, I've spent a fortune the last 2 months and need to haul the reigns back in a bit. I was supposed to be doing a hot air balloon ride but it hasn't been the right weather. That and I spent £429 on an Mac Mini instead, oops.
White water rafting sounds good its only about £45 I think. I was talking on Saturday night about shooting (lamping). I have permission from the local farmer who I've known all my life to go whenever I want. Its a bit rubbish around here though. I used to go shooting up Frosterley when my gran was alive and the hillside was full of rabbits, not like that round here.
I will have a bit think of what stuff I could do that's a bit different, yet not gonna cost me hundreds of pounds!!
I was reading Computing magazine last week and I saw an advert for Microsoft UK Challenge. It sounded excellent, it was a team building exercise. Where you spent 4 days and nights running, kayaking and cycling. You had to solve various puzzles and stuff as well. It was in Ayrshire next June. I couldn't find any price on the website. It all sounded excellent until I got the brochure through and saw it was £6,100 minimum. No way in hell my work would pay that, shame it looked good and as it said you would learn a hell of a lot about your colleagues.
