A lot of people can tick this one off their list straight away
after learning from a sadistic school teacher who, whilst not
noticing or caring how cold it was, forced them to retrieve a
plastic brick whilst wearing their pyjamas. Fortunately, for
those people who have never learned to swim, it is not
necessary to go to such lengths to earn a swimming badge.
Most leisure centers offer swimming lessons, in a heated pool,
for people of all ages and abilities. It is worth learning to
swim not just for life saving reasons, but also for exercise and
fun. |

This is a quick one that you can do right now. The reason for
doing this isn't to assess the condition of your lawn, but to
appreciate nature and take in the beauty of the simple things
in life. We walk along the same paths each day in a little
bubble, failing to notice the simple beauty around us. Go and
lie back and feel the grass, look closely at a daisy, or look up
and take in the magnitude of the sky. Don't rush yourself,
stay there for as long as you like, who cares? you're not
breaking the law! |

Have you ever felt like a change of scenery? Of course you
have, so why don't you do something about it? Living in the
UK we are lucky to have a wealth of culture and history on
our doorstep, both in our country and in Europe, so there is
no shortage of places to visit. In Britain it is easy to travel
by train or coach to our big cities such as London, Edinburgh,
or Manchester, and equally as easy to visit smaller historical
towns such as Bath, Shrewsbury, or Stratford. It is also just
as easy to hop onto a flight to visit a great European city
such as Barcelona, Milan, or Stockholm.
Taking a short break doesn't have to be expensive either. By
booking a trip at the last minute or by booking your transport
and accommodation separately you can get away for less
than you may think. |

Everyone likes a good joke, and the person with a good joke up their
sleeve is always popular. This suggestion is to look for, remember, or
wait until someone tells you a good joke, and then remember it. Once
you've found a good joke, don't keep it to yourself, tell it to people.
Here's a starter..
"Two peanuts walk into a bar, one was a salted."
OK, we know there are funnier jokes out there, so go and find one. |

The idea of going to a concert may conjure up images of
either screaming teenagers or heavy metal enthusiasts
swinging their long hair about. This isn't always the case, as
there are many older generation performers from the 1960's,
70's and 80's who are household names, still performing and
touring the country. In addition, there are a lots of talented
young singers and musicians from every genre you could
possibly imagine, playing all over the country, it's just a case
of finding out when they are playing near to you. |
