50before50

On 10th October 2015 I will be 50. This blog describes the 50 things I am determined to do before then and (hopefully) my successes in achieving them. These are all things I have wanted to do for some time but have never had the commitment, the opportunity, the energy or the balls! Two things that might make this a greater challenge are my attention deficit disorder - which makes it very difficult for me to stick at anything - and my two main phobias; acrophobia and batophobia.

Redhill Rocks

Tickets booked for my first ever festival. OK its not Glastonbury and we will be camping over in the caravan - but I don't do tents or porta loos. Really looking forward to it; some good local bands on show and also an AC/DC tribute and a Queen tribute. Sounds like a great weekend and only half an hour from home!
