Being of an age where there's more sand in the bottom of the hourglass than the top, it's time to write the bucket list. Hopefully I can tick off the first two in the forthcoming week. The ones that will really mean something are those that involve conquering fear, rather than spending money.

1. Join the F.F.A.F. club (First Forward After Fifty).
2. Sail at Maui
3. Cross Bass Strait in my 19 foot boat
4. Crack 38kts

Others to follow.

All inspirational messages to achieve #1 appreciated.
