Been blowy here too yes... occasional gust are bad... mostly ok.

Did you see the sky though? Nacreous clouds!

Just looked it up. Cool . No I've never seen one of those,  Did you take that photo?

I did. I walked out of Gregg's with my dinner and my jaw dropped. Then I grabbed my phone. Surprised it showed up as well as it did.

What a great thing to see... and quite spooky

Thought it was a bit of rainbow at first... then saw the streetlights. W.t.h.?  my wee  brain can't process it at all 

It's apparently clouds being high enough/the right sort with the sun at a certain angle. Extremely rare. I'm so happy, miss so much here with light pollution and, rather ironically, clouds.

Holding an owl, seeing extremely rare sights in the sky... this is bucket list stuff!    Amazing 

Ooh... It is bucket list-ish. I need to tick-off more!

 Yeah! Go for it...  what else would you like to do? I suppose the best stuff happens by chance though...you can't plan it.

Is this Bucket list stuff?

I swallowed a 10p and lived to tell the tale [ in the 70's when they were bigger  ] Saw a chest x ray with it showing = it looked like the moon 

Was up close to deadly creatures... a blue ringed octopus! And my leg practically brushed a stonefish! I got the danger sign from another diver 

Eaten a green ant! [ just the abdomen, it tasted like a citrus tic tac]

Bitten by a ladybird though no-one believes me! [ maybe not that one ] 

Definitely. Those fit. Why did you eat a green ant? I believe you about the ladybird, they are nippy. *nods*

I think if I listed things... I'd be less likely to do them. I completed a rubik's cube...  that buckety... maybe learn the "proper" moves so I can do it fast? I can do the first layer with barely a thought... the other two not so easy.

Doing a rubik's cube is hard. I tried lots and never managed it. Definitely buckety  .

When I was backpacking round Australia a guide got us to eat green ants. Gosh that was so long ago, 1993.    

Don't forget - you've met some bona fide icons - like Dirk Benedict!  Buckety for sure, 

And you've witnessed a poltergeist / levitating object  Top notch bucket list stuff.  Seeing a ghost would be amazing, I'm jealous of people who have. I've just sensed things... 

Australia is buckety in and of itself! unless, of course, you happen to be Australian... which you aren't... I think...

Sensing ghosts is good too. The amount of people that can't even do that...

From Norn Iron. I was lucky to get the opportunity to travel when I was young [ with the compo from my car accident ]. Hey! We've both been to China - before it got really westernised and opened up.  And you've seen the terracotta army ... the sight of sights!  Now that is the ultimate buckety!

Bad luck in the rugby ... did Scotland play well? 

Not particularly, but it was close... so there's that.

You are well travelled indeed. *nods*

I puked halfway up the Pyrenees... that's... sort of interesting... I guess?

Very! A mishap at an exotic location always makes it more interesting!

Where were you going, when was this etc? 

I was going to Andorra La Vella. I was 8 or 9. I don't bus well on level surfaces, so this shouldn't have been surprising. My mum's navy skirt ended up with a purple splodge that would never go away.

Good times.

A memento is even better!   

JM's show last nightwas ok. He slagged off Jezza a couple of times  I miss them so much I'm hanging on to every mention...

Jezza is a wonderful target. *nods*

He is, he is.

Matt Le Blanc for TG? Really? He's not that entertaining in interviews. 

I know... Chris Evans has just seen all the "meh" comments and thought "I know! I'll get my famous, Hollywood pal in." and... No... I think I'm even less likely to watch now.
