Default Best memory of 2007

What has been your best memory from 2007? Mine must be attending the rollout of HMS Astute.I have a picture as my wallpaper and every time I look at it I cannot believe I was there!

I saved a co-worker from choking to death by using the Heimlich maneuver.
I had never practiced it before. I had only seen a demonstration. At first I did not give it too much thought untill, my wife told me about a friend's husband who choked to death in a crowded restaurant.

I'm with Kapt Phil on this one, best memory is the other half finally moving in with me after four years Best memory I'd rather forget? Almost being put underwater by the North Sea surge a day after watching the film 'Flood'

Then of course there was going to see Bill Bailey in Birmingham, and Andy Parsons and Frankie Boyle at Colchester. Very funny stuff!

My brother-in-law asked me about my trip to see Astute and I replied that the trip was akin to travelling 700 miles and 16 hours to go and stand outside a very expensive restaurant.I saw the shop front but the inside was very definetly off limits.It was still worth it though!
