Photography a few months a go.
Cider making more recently, which has extended into wine making (I bought two demijohns to do the cider, I now have 14 in all...) Other than that I haven't done anything new to me! |

Re: Hobby - have you taken one up recently?
Motorcycling is my most recent hobby! Trouble is, added to my other hobbies, I haven't got time for them all.

Relaxing.
I was a climber, mountain biker, hill walker, ice climber, mountaineer, back packer, cycle tourist, caver, and free lance activity instructor when not working in the climbing wall. Wore my self out with worn out knees, fingers, back, feet and brain from having to say " Awesome, Dude!" all of the damn time... Got into Eskrima a few weeks ago with my friend Ruth. She is a great teacher and very fast, so poor broken me gets hit a lot then has to stop because something else broke! |

Re: Hobby - have you taken one up recently?
I have lots of hobbies, none of which are new....
One of my favourite ones is scuba diving, which I am hoping to be doing on holiday as of tomorrow! I used to go rollerblading in Hyde Park every weekend when I lived in London. Definately get yourself a decent pair of skates though or you will be in for a terrible time. Mine are Salomon, bought them for £198, many years ago and worth every penny. If you intend on just skating around rather than doing trick skating, you will need good bearings and a longer wheel base, good ankle support and a comfortable boot. I always take my own rollerblades on holiday where I know there are skating areas, I rented a pair once and it was hell!! Last edited by Von Teese; 07-07-09 at 03:46 PM. |

Re: Hobby - have you taken one up recently?
i started and stopped roller blading when connor was a toddler. Used to go to toddler group pushing him in the buggy while I skated. Only problem I had was stopping. Connor had to wear a blanket while in buggy and I would shout hide and he would pull his legs up and hide head under blanket as I ploughed the buggy into the nearest hedge/bush/car to stop.
next summer Ill be getting a bike seat for libby and start cycling today I went to body combat class which reminds me of when I did muay thai, might have to find a class down here. |
