Friday Five

It’s Friday Five time.

1. What’s the most daring thing you’ve ever done?

Got way too close to the edge of the cliffs at the Great Australian Bight. (I’m terrified of heights.)

2. What one thing would you like to try that your mother/friend/significant other would never approve of?

Cycle all the way around Australia when I retire. (Not that I’ll be retiring for another 20 or 30 years.)

3. On a scale of 1-10, what’s your risk factor? (1=never take risks, 10=it’s a lifestyle)

About a six I think. I would have said seven but that was too risky.

4. What’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you as a result of being bold/risky?

I asked Pauline to marry me. She said yes.

5. … and what’s the worst?

I can’t think of anything really bad. Maybe I should start taking a few more risks.
