railways and minors seem to go together rather well it seems [frame][/frame]

besides the Minor - well - being at uni, and all the fun times that go with it, drinking Guinness, spending time with mates, and being a Cub Leader!

drinking guinness

At last an answer I can relate too!
Drinking beer and playing first person shoot 'em ups on line.
Does procrastinating count as a hobby?

Only if you put it off till tomorrow.....

sailing - the trouble is the summer weekends become too short - that is why i use my minor every day throughout the year!

i have a few hobbies!
drawing hot rods
gardening ( my job also)
collecting model cars
learning to play slide blues guitar!
general welding
banger racing
walking
cycling

Moderating this message board
Going to Auctions
Pottery collecting
Branch activities
D.I.Y.
Target shooting.
My website.
None of which I seem to have enough time to do which is why there is always a never ending queue of things waiting to be done.

Not a hobby, but not my job as I don't get paid for doing it - I have a hogspital, I rehabilitate hedgehogs.

Definately a hobby is recurve archery.

I also have recently self published my first book, a series of short stories for children about hedgehogs.

Also have a husband, 2 sons, a dog and a paid (though badly) job as a Teaching Assistant.

Not really a hobby but I have a job writing for Classics monthly, My first contribution should come out in December

i will be looking for your article with interest camper

My good wife has a keen interest in Archery. She joined a local club and has a selection of Bows. she has a long bow, and quiet a few recurves although she hasn't shot for 18 months or so she has been on about rejoining her old club.

is your wife called Robin

Marion surely

I like the idea of a longbow - one way of getting the washing up done!

Jon have you seen this Lou with a longbow.
Lou I though you could be quite forceful enough without any help

Watch it Kevin! I used to be a good aim with a double barrel - never tried a longbow though - always a first time

Ouch that's one of those thingy's with lots of pellets so I will keep a respectful distance, as with target shooting you only get one shot

My hobbies,

Retro Computing, I have a comprehensive collection from the ZX81 to the Commodore Amiga, but this is waning now in favor of my retro motoring.
wood working, mainly tuning.
my three cars, two minors and a triumph.
and my two boys and better half keep me occupied.

I also collect anything retro, we seem to have a number of old sewing machines, type writers, gramophones (complete with 78's) and 9.5mm projectors...

Never a dull moment....
