List of stuff to do before I leave Canada

Things done: 33
Things to do: 15

Below is a complete list of things I want to do in Canada before I go home back to Blighty. Its important I have this list as I know well my ability to procrastinate and fritter away this gift of life that I've been blessed with. Without this list I'm sure I would return to Britain with little more than tales of putting together Ikea beds. And after the 10th time of telling most people become bored by that story.

Now I'm not totally sure I actually want to do everything here, but I thought I'd write everything that had occurred to me about what I could do here.

Please feel free to add things you think I should do under comments. I will update the list as I do things, and the score at the top should show my progress. Some are pretty long term and so I guess I won't be able to say I achieved them or not until the end of the year. Already I'm thinking of an end of year review with some kind of graph.

For those of you in Vancouver let me know if there are any of these that you want to do as well and maybe we could do them together. Ahhhh.

The list is in no particular order, I wrote things down as I thought of them.
