Skiing - Col des Gentianes haute route off Mont Fort, Glas Maol on a crystal clear Wednesday with a foot of powder
Assisting the birth of my son in the kitchen! Playing with him now he is growing up
Watching a 12lb barbel take my bait after sniffing at it for ten minutes in 12inches of crystal clear water
Going to India for the first time - going mahseer fishing on the river Kauvery
Going to a hill temple in Bali with not a single tourist in sight
Standing in the middle of Rannoch Moor and seeing the stars
My first Unleash the Power Within weekend with Tony Robbins

Swimming with sharks
Swimming with dolphins
Sitting next to and stroking a 600lb Siberian tiger
Flying over Niagara Falls & the Grand Canyon
Sitting next to the pilot in a sea plane, flying over Alaska and landing to watch a bear catch a salmon - absolutely awesome
Standing on a glacier
Whale watching
Walking in the Lake District - best place on Earth IMO

Being with the kids has to be top of the list but.......
I still remember (some of) my first Easter Rugby tour when I was about 18. We used to go to a place called Burgh Island in Devon. Watching **** movies backwards, drinking 24/7 and even playing the odd game. Played against Bath 1st in those days (we were a distant second!!).
Oh and poaching for Trout as a kid........ d

Spending a year outside the country in Hong Kong, Australia and Bali.
Few of the most memorable fun things from that trip...
Swimming with Whale Sharks
Watching a Shark Feed in the Coral Sea with over 50 sharks
Standing on top of Uluru
Getting washed out on a rip while learning to surf in Bali

He took my Scoob around the Nurburgring last year in the pi55ing rain, drifting and sliding past 911s and Ferraris. Only car that passed us was the 500bhp BMW M5 Ring Taxi I was frankly shocked by his skill.But beating Hamilton has had its upsides. They've been family friends ever since and we've enjoyed privileged access to all his recent success. See if you can spot me back-stage in the McLaren garage next year

Good mate of mine won loads of karting championships, the national sportscar championship and pretty much anything else he entered....but without a rich backer/sponsor he's only racing a few times a year now.

Jumping out a plane at 12000 feet.
Swimming with dolphins
******* the lasses in the States while there for 2 months (sorry, that's not allowed is it ?!)
Being surrounded by Swedish female backpackers while travelling the world for 6 months.
Worst thing - being back in Blighty !

As it was my post to start with I feel I can give Andy and Hoppy a yellow card for a first offence, but repeated transgressions will probably be a SEVERE wrist slapping.

Hard to choose between:
FIBUA (Fighting In Built Up Areas) with live rounds and grenades in the US.
My first freefall parachute jump.
Skiing the Vallee Blanche in Chamonix.
A low level flight in a Chinook with an apparently suicidal RAF pilot.
Abseiling out of an Army Lynx helicopter.
My first visit to a Hooters restaurant.

Yes he killed a load of innocent people, can't see why that should be so funny.
