As an opposite to the `I have never` post, I thought I`d start another with `I have`.......what unusual or quirky things have you done?
I have abseiled down the side of Ripley Castle
I have been the victim of the Indian knife throwing act
I have pot holed in Gibraltar
I have held a huge snake
Your turn
