Bucket List № 11 & 12
Throwing An Axe At A Target and Bog Snorkelling
#88 — Throw An Axe At A Target— 4-Jul-2023
When I wrote this on my list I assumed it would be quite a tricky one to sort out. Either I buy an axe and build a target, then head to the woods, to avoid injuring anyone, or find somewhere that offers this service. It turns out there’s lots of businesses offering exactly this service. I think there’s two in the city of Cardiff alone. So my girlfriend and I booked to spend an evening throwing axes.
I cannot stress how much fun this was. Not only was it good fun, but it was quite a workout for my arms and a massive stress buster for my mind. We were there for 90 minutes, and not only did I hit the target, I nailed some bullseyes too.
#187 — Bog Snorkelling In Mid Wales — 27-Aug-2023
This was one of the more obscure things I wanted to try out when writing my bucket list. Its the one thing that when you mention it to others, they scrunch their faces up and act like you’ve gone insane! And spoiler alert, it was a bit nuts…
