Every year, to add some intrigue to the summer, 3 of us compile a list of “Things to do this Summer”. 3 years of making this list makes it very hard to come up with new ideas, so we stumbled across the MTV show “Buried Alive”, and they had a list which is very unrealistic and very American, but nonetheless craic infested, so this is the official “100 Things To Do This Summer” list and come May 1st, the aim will be, between the 3 of us, to complete this list by July 31st. I’ve gone through the list and realistically, I think 61 of them are actually attainable whilst the rest are long shots, but hey, God loves a trier.

Obviously there’s a couple I can’t do, I’m Catholic so I can’t be a minister and my parents don’t have a mortgage so that’s another one, but other than that we’re in good shape. #Hashtag #PlayThatFunkyMusicWhiteBoi HOO-RAH!
