What other Hobbies do you have?

efreeti · 27th November 2007, 11:05

Partly inspired by the profession thread and party by the realisation that Raistlin and I share a relativley unusual hobby I thought it might be a good idea to see where else our worlds may collide.

So, what other hobbies do you all have apart from messing around with Rover 75s?

My main pastimes at the moment are...

1> Clay Pigeon Shooting - Sunday mornings blasting at airborne crockery

2> D&D - Yes the old fashioned sit around a table and roll dice type thing

3> LRP - Sort of a cross between D&D and Sealed Knot. Dress up like a troll and hit people with carbon fibre weapons. (Somewhat simplistic explanation of what is a relativley varied and complicated hobby!)

4> Running a family! Not really a hobby but certianly gets in the way of the first three

Sorry if this has been done before, nothing obvious on the search facility.

With hobbies number 2 & 3 I don't have any idea what you're talking about - can you elaborate?

For me my other passion is Ten Pin Bowling. In years gone by I made it into the top 200 in the country. Traveled the country playing in tournaments near and far in an attempt to make my forture..........still poor

now older and overtaken by the younger "wizz kids" I'm Still averaging 190 per game, just not good enough now.

Fishing and insulting the wife.

OK efreeti

I'll take you seriously

1. AD&D

2. Photography

3. Canal walking and narrowboats

4. Finding pubs with decent bitter.

In fact - 2, 3, and 4 go together quite well

Now we're talking. Why is becoming increasingly difficult to find a proper pub that sells good real ale, mild or porter?
Lager lager lager. I wouldn't give it house room.

It's not a case of not taking things seriously..........AD & D ?????

Can you all please stop talking in code on this thread so that the rest of us have a fighting chance of understanding?

Pretty please

If anyone on here can read code then would they be kind enough to translate the phone text messages I get from my lad and my younger mates.
