I'm doing 40 things
Got dragged along to do this years ago with some guy friends of mine. Wasn’t looking forward to it at all. Turned out to be amazing, had so much fun sprinting round and hurling myself behind objects and jumping out laughing manically as I got my friend. Now its me who’s always trying to persuade people to go with me.

Volunteered for four years helping this old lady who ran an animal shelter in my village. Felt great getting up each week and wandering over to help her clean out all the pens for the morning. She always seemed surprised when I turned up each week even after I’d been doing it for so many years and was so grateful. It felt great.
Was one of the most terrifying moments of my life. Almost broke down and cried but luckily had a great examiner who seemed to take pity on me and got me to calm down sufficiently enough to pass!
