50 things to do before leaving durham

Yesterday at lunch we were sitting outside on the decking part of the DSU cafe and talking about the things we wanted to do before leaving durham - sitting on the decking of the DSU was one of them, hence the conversation! I don't know if i can quite manage fifty, and i've already done about three of the things on my list, but i thought i might at least try - might come up with some interesting results! Some things are really silly, others are more serious. So in no particular order, here are my 50 things to do before leaving durham:
