The Hobby Thread

[KingRichard]

I want to take up a new Hobby, wondered what you car nuts did in your spare time, car related or not.

I'm a Gym Rat and like Kick Boxing

My dream would be to complete my pilot training and gain my PPL, but thats too expensive at the minute :)

You?

[ProPlus]

A gym goer and a complete Hockey nut (proper hockey as in the field variety).

[dtuson]

My hobby is doing all of the things my wife asks me to do.

It takes up every spare moment.

[Raify]

Taekwon Do, hoping to do my Black Belt at the end of the year.

Apart from that, does playing GT4 on the PS2 count?

[zaktoo]

I'm a sad old case really - I maintain a database of car specs. I also love music and playing 8-ball pool. Movies, TV & novels are not really my bag. Oh, I also am a computer geek type person...

Ciao

Yeah I would think so...

Note to self; Buy old PS2 back...

[Harry Flashman]

Playing rugby & cricket - is that a hobby? I don't think that skiing and snowboarding count; you can't really count something you do twice a year as a hobby.

Interior design (I kid you not - I love it, and my flat is almost like a project)

Cooking - absolutely love it, and am quite nerdy about getting the right ingredients etc.

Chasing girls and getting into trouble (relatively recent hobby)

I go through a hobby a month it seems. My current one is cooking, which my GF seems quite happy about!

Strangely enough that's my job.......

[Incorrigible]

I play the guitar, build houses, and build and race cars

I had a hobby 'bender' last year... tried all sorts of stuff

Rally Driving, Rock Climbing, Wrestling, Running, Singing, Cooking.

Realised my talent runs out at anything beyond being aggressive or twirling a steering wheel

If you add "work with children" to that, what about going in for Miss World?

Are you into self build then? Or just love your work?

[southpaw]

I like messing about with my remote control car. Laugh you may, but it has a petrol engine

And for when its raining, my PS2 and Gamepod, or my electric guitar.

I suppose it's better than work on houses and play with children



And I haven't really got the figure for miss world

[Einion Yrth]

Photography, Video, Cooking, Gardening, Flight Simming, used to play guitar but never got round to replacing my last one after it got nicked.

I work as an IT guy, anything "real" is a welcome relief

There was a DIY thread here a couple of years back
