I’ve just got back from my second break dancing lesson. I’m really enjoying it – although I don’t think I’m a natural.

How I did it
It made me
chuckle 
How I did it: um..booked ticket for play, turned up on time, bought cushion for uncomfortable wooden seats, didn't fall asleep. As You Like It is not one of my favourite plays, but it was pretty entertaining. Read how I did it…

Surfing or windsurfing

I can’t decide which I would prefer. I might try one on holiday in Gran Canaria. I know I will be terrible, but it would be awesome if I could stand up for just a few seconds. Even better if I could get someone to take a photo in those few seconds so I look like a pro! I often go camping in Cornwall in the summer, so if I like it it’s something I could do every summer, although I have no aspirations of ever getting past the “bambi’s-first-steps” stage.
Gathering dust
10 months ago
I bought a unicycle in 2001 and never learnt how to ride it. I tried a few times but never even got going – although my house mate could go a few metres. It’s now gathering dust in my parents loft, so I need to get it down, reinflate the tyres, prepare myself to fall off many, many times and just dedicate a few weekends of my life to it. It would be sad if that poor unicycle never got ridden!
