There are a few things I'd like to do before I'm 40 - which isn't far away now!
1) Go to the opera. I would have shuddered at the thought as a child but now, I actually like the better known of the arias - not that I know anything about them.
2) Take the kids to a musical in the West End.
3) Take the family to Monze in Zambia, where I was born, and to walk past Vic Falls & take in a safari.
4) Have a really proper grown-up dinner party at our new house - we move in in three weeks!
5) Get a short story or novel written from beginning to end - even if no one wants to publish it.
6) Lose half a stone, of course.
7) Make time for a regular massage or facial or, preferably, both!
8) Have a capsule wardrobe of stylish clothes that fit in all the right places (see 6)!
How about you?
This is really interesting and I think I may well do a list like this and post it on my blog, it has certainly got me thinking what I might like to do before 40 and I love things like this and making a list! I just joined listography the other day!

Hi found your blog via your comment on Amelia's. So, what a spooky list.... You see I will be 40 in less than 4 weeks. Only yesterday I spent time discussing with a friend of a friend who happens to be a holistic therapist, that I should make time for a regular massage. My friend helps people sort out their wardrobes, she was telling us about her latest success story. Last week I found myself watching Pop Star to Opera Star and enjoying all that vocal gymnastics. I have just gone on a diet with the intention of losing at least half a stone, I'm still trying to write the novel (but I have managed short stories. Is it an age thing do you think?
