recommend me a new hobby for 2006
 

right folks - I am after trying my hand at something new for the new year and would like your ideas -
I already go to the footy so dont suggest that - and besides thats more a way of life !!
so get you thinking hats on and come up with ideas please - genuinely serious here - and nothing too expensive - the wife already has an expnesive hobby - she has her own horse and go's riding (enough said)

cheers

Hi - how about bread-making I have tried it yes and I got a lot of satisfaction out of it, especially from making tomato and cheese and onion bread. :)
Also a really good hobby is home brew making. There are many, many different brews and wines and its taste and affects twenty times better than commercial beer. Not to mention its a hell of a lot cheaper in the long run. :D

Stock car racing. Nothing beats the roar of the engine & the smell of the fuel. You can also make some good mates as they are a friendly bunch. You can go to as many/few meetings as you like.

You could try fencing - with epees and not wooden posts. Great exercise!

spuggie - started fly fishing at 14 and have been round most of the fresh water rivrs and lochs in scotland mate - wouldnt do course fishing as I would rather eat what I catch ( trout & salmon) - perch, tench & pike dont float my boat !!

golf is a waste of a good walk !

and cheers spuggie for giving us 'weegies a bad name !' - its bad enough thanks !!

and gayle - when you say crochet - do you mean sewing/knitting or croquet ? - the lawn game ?? - either way no chance ! - and nice pic - nothing like a woman in a uniform !!!!
