Things to do before you die

I've already done most of the things I thought I'd like to do before I die. These include:

 

Hot Air Ballooning

Flying in a glider

Falconry

Motor racing

 

I'd still like to try:

Clay Pigeon shooting

Archery

 

and I'd do hot air ballooning again like a shot

 

My ex bought me a trip in a hot air balloon for my birthday a few years ago, foot & mouth ruined that as they went bust as couldn't land anywhere! Still would love to do it though. Nearest I have got was tethered about a hundred foot up at the Soton Balloon and Flower Festival years ago. :(

Approximately 5000 helium-filled party balloons should lift you into the air. Let us know how you get on.

I joined the university hot air balloon team and flew out of the Bristol Balloon Fiesta in 1994 in a mass ascent. Not bad going seeing as I graduated in 1993. ;)

Flights cost about £20 each and you had to build up a couple of credits as ground-crew between trips.
