My list of hobbies

I thought i would review my list of hobbies

I read (The Blue Zone by Andrew Gross is excellent).

I grow/kill bushes and plants but appear to be winning the war at the moment :D

I work with dog's but we won't go into that - I get very passionate about the proclavities of dog treatment in general

I design stuff but am not so good at completing it, where can i find the time

I make my own wine in winter

I love to chat

How about you lot. What r u all into then?

Oh and i sing (terribly ) to myself not others

 

Hi ag!

I garden and love my garden with a passion.

I read, currently The Betsy by Harold Robbins, last one 79 Park Avenue by Harold Robbins, next one ... there's four more Harold Robbins to go ...

I cook ... in the winter.

I paint ... pictures not walls unless it's wall art.

I sew and crochet and basically love all types of crafts and have all the gear for glass painting and leading.

I have written three cookbooks (one printed) and am on my third children's book (unpublished).

I love music and listen to it all day long (I don't watch TV).

I love photographing scenery, which is what I like to paint.

I love my cats (is that a hobby?)

I AM a FIRST CLASS chatterbox ...

I'm trying to spend less time on GC ... :D :D

If I think of anything else, I'll do an addendum! :rolleyes:

 

I would love to learn about car engines, construction, electricity and plumbing...

 

Good...good...good.... Hold that thought, miraflores! Lots of conversion and electrics to do here, as well as a new bathroom! And the engine on my Honda rotovator's in bits at the moment, too... We could even help there!!! So when you've a year or three to spare with nothing better to do, I'm sure we could find you an occupation.... :D :D :D

P.S. Any good with a shovel? The swimming pool needs sorting out too!!

(Only joking... I think!)

 

I train with weights.
Read, autobiographies, RHS garden magazine and other books on horticulture.
A bit of DIY.
A bit of gardening.
Sing/play guitar/harmonica.
Web surf.
Walk in the countryside and study the flora.

 

Hi there Lady,

Wow your list is IMPRESSIVE

Congratulations on your published book. :D :D

 

Miraflors,

I am blissfully ignorant as to how my Jeep works, that is until it breaks down :( , good on you for wanting to find out more :D

 

Hyla,

Luv motorbikes, and any plumbing advice needed ask away and i will grill hubby on it :D

 

Hi Fonzie,

I used to play flute, piano and violin bu that was over 30 years ago :D the thought makes me feel old :D

 

I can play keyboard acidentalgardner, however I am not a master by any means. I can bang out a few chords, so I'm not the old two finger player!
Haven't got a keyboard anymore, so must be rustier than ever. Same as the drums, to whit I was not a master in either, haven't got room for a kit and then there's the neighbours to consider!

 

Hi there Fonzie,

You could always "jam" with my boy, he has an electronic drum kit :D

 

Gardening is my main hobby
Used to play an electric organ
Make cards by hand and computer
Photography which comes in handy for my card making
Ballroom Dancing
Dressmaking
Baking and preserve making
Computers
Socializing with anyone who is available
Swimming & exercising
Talking to anyone who will listen

 

Hi Paula

My hobbies are pretty simple kinda like me :D

Love being in my garden there's no place like it.

I read an awful lot Stephen King,Anne Rice,James Herbert,Jilly Cooper even Terry Pratchett, I'd go mad without a book.

Love going to the movies at least three or four times a week...but no chick flicks.

Painting and decorating so much so I'm in demand to 'do' houses for others.

DIY always got a plan for something.

Love going to carboots/flea markets for a bargain.

I sometimes knit and do embroidery.

Love cooking/cake making although I'm the first to admit it's not always good.

Listening to music and have always got my MP3 player handy, I am a bit of a rock chick although now more like an old hen than a chick!

Love a good chat and of course a joke, well known for my smile and twinkle in my eye.

And lastly a very strange one indeed...... I like to take pictures of war graves as a way to honour all the brave men and women who have paid the ultimate price for our wars over the years.
Helen.xxx.
