Jim, I think you’ve got it.

There’s a shooting range five minutes from here, a rather infamous one. The store used to sell to gunrunners from NY/NJ before the gun laws changed.

But I think shooting is a great idea.

Hey, we have an indoor water park. Now that’s an idea.

So is the hot air balloon ride, actually. I wouldn’t go up in a plane, but I think I’d do that.

No, probably not. Fear of heights thing.

Well, happy birthday!

If the weather cooperates, a hot air balloon ride is a great pleasure.

How about an indoor water park that has all them slides and wave machines and stuff.

I went with my nieces and had a blast.

I won a gift voucher from work that I could have frittered away on Amazon books. Instead I bought myself a 45 min flight in a 1938 Tiger Moth. The pilot proudly showed me the date on the tail plate (though I’m really hoping that most of the parts had actually been replaced by now!).

I did most of the flying and it was a hoot :-) Best part was looking down into the Â£5m+ homes and gardens we flew over out to the west of London.

Despite reading your blog for two years, I think it would be presumptuous of me to suggest what you should do for your birthday. However, I can hit the tip jar again.

Happy B-day Meryl. How about some loud rock and roll? Or a fancy dinner out?
Whatever you do, enjoy your special day.
