I bet on a horse on the grand national … i’d picked a horse out in a work sweepstake and so bet on that one to win and another (for which i followed my instinct) each way (lol now i know what that means how cool). My sweepstake horse came in second (so no money from the bookies but a lil cash from the pot at work) my other horse came in 4th and because i’d bet each way (and because the odds were 16:1) i got some pennies there too. So in all i won about £28 whoohoo. I think the bet made watching the race much more exciting, ‘come on little horsey!!’ Having said that i would have been just as excited if i was winning chocolate buttons! ... The betting shop was a sad dark place and the loss of some beautiful horses due to bad falls at the fences troubled me greatly, mmm … maybe i’ll try the dog races next time :)

How I did it: During my travels - got to australia and spent 2 weeks in cairns - booked 2 day dive trips and a 3 day boat expidition all good for different reasons - my fav are the turtles, will never tire of them :o) Read how I did it…
How I did it: The mechanic looking after my car at the time learnedof my obbsession and got a wrek of ebay, restored it and arranged a straight swap with my car -it was great as he could ask my opinion on colour etc ... I LOVE IT !! so funny but yes a wee bit unreliable and a bit costly in further problems that have arisen! but i dont care because he's my wee friend and is hilarious to drive around because everyone just points and laughs :o) Read how I did it…
How I did it: While in NewZealand I took a trip to Kaikoura - there you can go and swim wth a pod of wild dusky dolphins, smaller than the 'flipper' type dolphn. It was cold as it was winter when i was there, but they kit you up in all the wet suit stuff you need - they went out and found a pod of about 300 dolphins andwhen they said go we all jumped in and let hem swim towards us ... they were super fast and some stayed to inspectyou before movin… Read how I did it…
