One of my favourite ones is scuba diving, which I am hoping to be doing on holiday as of tomorrow!

Me too. I started about 18 months ago and just got back from a week in Vanuatu. Where are you off to?

Other than that, my other new hobby is off-road trail riding

My most recent would be bikes last year tbh. I Love to go Karting up from where we live whenever i can but expensive enough, and Quadding but not done that for a while i used to be a member of a place called Trax in Preston when i lived in england.

Now im looking to get into off road biking with my mate, But atm money is the issue wanting more road bikes aswell but don't wanna let my sv go you see:D

I tried fencing once...never again. I felt really claustrophic in the mask (but it was a good few years ago now so it might not be so bad now)

You and your man just dont come to soho enough my love. There has been one occasion i had to use them on some drunk who was about to knock all our bikes over. Ok so i ended up falling on my butt in front of everyone as i slipped on the dropped kerb bit outside Neros :oops: but i did make sure he didnt fall drunkenly on the bikes.

And who do you think it was who chased down and caught the dude who did knock our bikes over and do a runner? Only your friendly neighbourhood wall crawler :)

I wanted to do this a few years ago but couldn't find any decent place local that allowed me to do it.

The Jelly hobby is going well.

I'm guessing you're looking for something more at the jewellery making end of the scale than off roading/fencing/etc?? ;)
