Just the two interests for me.
I love to fly kites, especially the big foil types and I play with rockets, all sorts of rockets really, water, solid fuel, air etc etc. Maybe a bit dull, but it does attract a crowd and the odd park ranger .........
Almost forgot, a couple of years ago I used to paint model dragons and wizards as I found it really relaxing, but have not done that in a while.

If I never see another Games Workshop figure as long as I live it'll be too soon mad

My ex and his sons were into it big time and they had no less than 8 armies between them. :shock: I've still got about 8 pieces of bespoke scenery hanging around the house which I must get around to flogging on gaybay sometime. Know anyone who wants to buy them? rolleyes

Seems that many people share more than sexy mischief in common here.
Another martial artist here, and traveller (often combine the two). Also a musician and diver.

As for me playing rugby takes up a lot of my time either playing, training or going to gym, but I'm trying to get into watersports snowboarding as well but struggling to find the time.

I read, love to sew and make things, currently I'm knitting redface

I love reading autobiographies and all things crafty like cardmaking, cross stitch, flower arranging and cake decorating (and no, I'm not joking big lezzer that I am redface

)

I'm an avid maritime photographer ( been taking photo's for as long as i've been able to hold a camera ) and i've had over a dozen of my photo's used by the BBC for news reports and online on the bbconline site as well as those another 6 or so in the local and national( for Scotland that is ) press. The last one was of the fishing trawler Brothers that sunk off Skye with both crew sadly lost. All the royalties for that photo will be donated to the RNLI , couldn'y in good conscience make money especially as I knew the skipper and had talked to him only a few months ago.
I like watching the MotoGP's , F1, LeMan 24hr sportcars, Rallycars , passing ladies :rascal: innocent

I also play warhammer 40k , got 8 armies and 1/2 a house full of scenery lol. I scratch build remote control model fishing boats and warships.
I also have my own bespoke massage table with all the aromatherapy oils and I quite often end up giving my female mates a massage to get the knots out of their muscles ( a few of them work in the fishyards where it is pretty physical work ).
Davie ( busy for a disabled walking disaster area aint I !!! :silly: )

A friend has just bought a learner kite which is good fun but not big enough to skud with(be pulled along by) and it was quite hard to get the hang off (took 3/4 of an hour or so), that might be a good place to start. I've got my eye on a kit with a landboard thingy that looks like fun.

17 Jul 2006

Thanks Osker.....ooh, a new word already!
Would that make me a skud missile? :shock:
