Narrowboating.
you could arrange rather a few test rides of new bikes to keep a grin on your face, oooorrrr start to learn a new skill like guitar hero haha
MBK asked a similar thing on the IB thread... here were my suggestions... you could try a couple
play pooh sticks
make a paper aeroplane
Run, Duck, Bomb and heavy petting at the local swimming baths
Eat a liquorice Dib Dab
Scare a squirrel
Startle a goat
That'll keep you busy for a while
wake boarding,
canyoning
river bugging,
Go Ape
motorcross experience
windsurfing
diving
kite surfing
fly a mammoth kite (great fun on the beach)
go metal detecting
learn a new craft - jewwllery making
re design a room
create a masterpiece of art
go get some photos taken
go camping in the woods
get lost ( literally maps not allowed)
volunteer for half a day somewhere
gliding
microlighting

I think you should take more pics like your avatar. And of course don't forget to post them in here ;)
Well thought after a few years my avatar was due a change

It did cross my mind to go visit all (or some) of the English hetitage sites .... maybe not cool but deffo interesting

Fly to Spain, do an adventure tour for 4 days on a 450cc enduro bike through Spanish mountains and rivers. Use your 5th day to get smashed. Then hire a Ducati 1198 and spend 4 days riding every twisty road in Spain. Spending your last day getting smashed, then sexing up the flight attendants on your flight back home.
All topped off with a lovely ice cold can of Monster Energy on your arrival in the UK, escorted home by two of the Monster Babes in the back of a Limo... P.S. The rubbers are under your seat ;]
