So at the weekend Dan and I attempted the 3rd of my 'tasks to do before I'm 30' (going down the deepest cave, and up the highest mountain in England). Well we didn't get all the way down to the bottom of Peak Cavern, and we didn't get all the way to the top of Scafell Pike (it was snowing, and we were tired from doing a bonus climb up Mam Tor - and we did get very close - and we didn't really get enough time - and to get to the bottom of the cavern you need scuba gear).
But we had a great weekend, and certainly achieved the spirit of the task if not the physical displacement. Rather annoyingly my camera ran out of batteries, so I wasn't able to capture the blizzard conditions in the lakes, but for a close approximation watch the begining of 'Empire Strikes Back'.
I've not decided on the precise nature of the next challenge, I'll keep you posted.
I'm in Madrid now (well a suburb nearby) for a month, although I'm home at the weekends!

Well done. Sounds like a fun weekend.
Think I am in a similar position to you (looking for inspiration for things to do before I am 30) searched on google and your blog came up - just to say, keep up the good work its inspiring, i'm adding you to my favourites to watch your progress over the next 6 months
