Space, Europa specifically

Money no object? I've always been a history nerd with a healthy wanderlust.

I'd probably take 6 months off, rent a decent yacht and re-enact Captain James Cook's famous maritime voyages.

Private yacht in the Caribbean - done that.

Although the private yacht was a Type 42 Destroyer!!

Think you boys will be waiting a long time to go to outer space. Space tourism is just a gimmick that will never happen imo. Pure smoke and mirrors.

The furthest they claim that anyone has been into space over the last 50 years is the International Space Station which sits at only 250 miles above the Earth's surface. That's little more than the distance from London to Manchester.

Good luck getting to Mars or Europa.

A palm-covered white sandy beach is still just as beautiful, even when seen through a fogged up porthole.

A fully paid up round trip, and he still came back as pale as a sheet.

Inside a black hole and see what's on the other side.

Klopptimus, so you've never been to Anfield then !

Would absolutely love to do a long driving trip across Italy.

Also I went Japan in November and it's such an amazing place - would love to spend more time there but it's certainly expensive

What's Anfield? Is that what's on the other side of a black hole?

A bit nearer to home. I'd love to walk SWCP one day. Not so much money issues, but time.

I did it in 2006. Will do it again in the near future as the missus hasn't been to Peru as yet. It is awesome and so is South America in general and outside of flights a cheap option.

As for the article, having no children means nowhere is out of reach really and every year I go to some pretty random places and knock off bucket list locations. Just back from India and Nepal last week as it goes, India is as mental as anticipated.

I guess one location thinking about it would be to have climbed Everest but mid forties now and feel that ship has probably sailed especially given it would cost in the region of 60 grand and two months. The missus would not be on board with that idea

Antarctica another trickier one which is generally around 10 grand a person and takes a bit of time to be done properly.

Been reading a lot of unsettling things about how Prince Charles runs the Duchy after they said he'd keep funding Harry and Meghan.

I'd probably end up stirring up a civilian insurrection down there if I got the chance to trek through the place.

I'm pretty sure I read before that if youre Cornish and die without leaving a will and with no traceable heirs, the Duchy scoops your pot.
