FOR one man, hitting 40 is proving to be more of a personal test than for most.

When Dean Cooper celebrated the four-decade watershed on 25 April, he also accepted a special challenge set by a friend… well, 40 challenges to be exact.

In a bid to mark the milestone in style, Mr Cooper has taken up the gauntlet of completing a 40-40 Challenge, which pits him against 40 tests of skill, wit and sheer determination over 12 months.

And he has been quick to start on his very own ‘bucket list’ of things to do on turning 40.
