Dave McGregor's achievement
Achievement name
7) Ride a rollercoaster
Achievement description
The butterflies in your stomach, the sweaty hands as you
wait to set off. The feeling of weightlessness and then the
feeling of being pushed down into your seat. Twisting
sideways, over, under, upside down, around and then
suddenly stopping. Climbing out with your legs feeling like
jelly and then wanting another go. Rollercoasters are
strange. Usually people either really want to go on them, or
they really want to keep well away from them. If you're one
of the former then go and find a bigger one to try, if you're
one of the latter, then that is all the more reason to
challenge yourself by adding this suggestion to your own list
of things to do.
Completion description
Any of the ones at Alton Towers.
Anne loves rollercoasters so this is not a difficult one to achieve.
Try the rickety old one at M&D's (Strathclyde Park, nr Motherwell). Guaranteed whiplash!
