Desperate to let your hair down and do something bonkers? – this randomised fun generator could be the answer.
A poll of 2,000 adults found 67 per cent have pledged to make some kind of change in their lives over the coming months.
With short-term targets ranging from ‘little’ things like reading more books to ‘big’ things like moving to another job.
But 64 per cent believe there’s too much of a tendency to set overly serious goals – and believe greater emphasis should be on having fun.
As a result, 888 Online Casino, which also commissioned the research, has revealed its randomised fun generator – which will assign you a completely bananas goal for 2023.

Permanent positive change
The study also found most adults (59 per cent) have set themselves a goal of some sort in the past.
And 33 per cent of those who have done so tend to write a list of things they want
