chrismdd 787 Posted June 11, 2016 Report Share Posted June 11, 2016 Too many hobbies and not enough time due to work getting in the way. Hobbies include: Lots of cycling (mountain-bike to work nearly every day, road bike (Airborne Zepplin) when I can, did Lands End to John O'Groats in ten days a few years ago) Kayaking which includes a fun/surf kayak and a proper sea-fishing kayak Started spear-fishing off the Dorset coast, just love snorkelling in the seas in the UK Loads of river fishing (coarse and wild brown trout) mostly roving for big chub and roach Ferreting in the colder months together with beating on a local shoot Car mechanics to keep my old landrovers on the road (got a 1983 Series III to get ready for some summer fun) General camping and hiking when I get the chance Oh and in the last eight months have taken up running six miles four times a week as a stress reliever Just need to find a way to retire early in the future 2 Quote Link to post

Michael J B Lancaster 69 Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) Bushcraft and Wild Camping are my guilty pleasures. Love getting out there with the kids, teaching them primitive skills and just generally enjoying the outdoors. Edited June 14, 2016 by Michael J B Lancaster Quote Link to post

Ham / CB radio (I have a 1700 channel AM / FM 25mhz to 28mhz transceiver) AND a 40` Antenna, much to the annoyance of my neighbours, especially when they realised I had planning permission!

mark williams 7,551 Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 Retired from it now but I coached Rugby League to Schools, Clubs, Town Teams and North West Counties as much as 7 days a week for the return from it, no money. When out driving my works van all my old players wave, shout and whistle me up, - it`s a nice feeling and I was very successful ( luckily .) Also fishing, metal detecting , camping - all outdoor stuff is my cup of tea. Mac`s been asking me to teach him how to shoot a lot lately,- a hard task, I know but I do love a challenge. atb 2 Quote Link to post
tomburras 2,730 Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 Fishing most of the summer and a recent project ...... 1 Quote Link to post
Slippery_Weasel 460 Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 I dont get a massive amount of free time these days but when I do, through the summer its mostly to do with the fishing either with the kayaks or the boat Other than that the garden takes some keeping on top of this time of year. So, although i wouldnt consider it a hobby, it burns a lot of time up! Quote Link to post
