**jelly15** · 20-09-2011, 12:15 PM

Not much spare time at the momment with Level 3 but if I get the chance DH and I like hiking, either on the Pembrokeshire costal path or up the Brecon Beacons. I always have a book on the go too.

I used to like entertaining, ameteaur dramatics and singing, cross stitch and card making. I now don't do any of these

I enjoy going to theatre, going out for meals and spa treatments, but as all of these cost money I don't do them very often. I think I need to get a life

I love getting dirty at the weekends

Now now it's not what you think. I love taking my 4x4 off road and we always end up getting really muddy. I also like riding my Motorcycle, but only in the sunshine.

Also DIY, and films, I am also looking at taking up Scuba Diving so if any one does this and has any tips or good sites let me know

I like to make cakes!
Cake decorating, can't wait to get started on my Xmas cakes.
I love entertaining too, especially summer bbq parties.
I wish I could still ride

I miss my horses terribly but with a chunk of metal in my hip now and the fact I would have to find a Shire horse to carry me I have to be content to helping occasionally with a friends pony.
I do like the glossy magazines to read, my guilty pleasure

I am loving this thread - its really great to see what everyone loves to do.

and I see some people have included their music hobbies... well I have to say Take That is not really a hobby - more a lifestyle choice

oh and Toothfairy - family history is addictive isn't it - I have been doing me and mine's for the last 6 years!

**lyla's mum** · 20-09-2011, 03:08 PM

we go to watch ice hockey each sunday through the season
i bake cakes (not so good for the figure!)
i try to go to spinning classes as often as possible (makes up for the cakes!)

**snufflepuff** · 20-09-2011, 07:07 PM

I don't really have any hobbies!

I just have the time or money (and I don't even work full time!)

I quite like baking and cake decorating. Otherwise my only 'hobby' is the internet I suppose!

OH and I go the the cinema now and then, and we enjoy eating out but since DS was born we have only eaten out (just the two of us) twice, maybe 3 times.

I work at our local youth club too, which is more like play than work. All the fun with the kids but none of the responsibilities

What warhammer is it,is it warhammer 40k?
