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 |
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
Hill walking not expensive after initial cost healthy and with a camera something that you can keep memories on picture of.

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!

Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
scuba diving !! - how expensive is that to do ??
and can anyone tell me more about it ? |
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
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 !!!! |

Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
how about doing voluntary work - you would be doing some good then helping people out and it gives you an interest and you meet different people. I do voluntary work our local credit union and school.
|
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
I actually live in accy so if anyone knows of anywhere that does scuba diving then pm me !
and why does everyone know the gorbals ??? & spuggie - I knew it was in jest ! I am from the very dodgy east end of glasgow ! - the bit you dont want to go to |
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
Frottage.
All you need are wax crayons and some paper. You could have fun in grave yards and churches all over the country. |
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006

Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
My hobbies are Family History and Photography. I'm really interested in searching out those lost folk and it does tend to take up a lot of spare time. I also transcribe for FreeBMD.
I don't have access to a dark room now but developing photos was such a great thing for me. Especially black and white. I now have a blog, which makes me use the camera more, even though it's a digital...............still not sure that I approve of those! Have fun with which ever idea takes your fancy! |
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
I agree with you Junetta, family tree stuff can become addictive. I,ve been at it for about 8 years and still get a kick from finding a new "skeleton".

I've sent you a link for the scuba club in Blackburn. My dad did his PADI certificate there..:D
|
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006
Yes I meant crochet (knitting) it was only a joke because Spuggie said we shouldn't give someone from Glasgow a weapon when I'd first suggested fencing.
They do Scuba diving at Mercer Hall in Gt Harwood. |
Re: recommend me a new hobby for 2006

spuggie - I went to secondary school in shettleston !!! but I come from the dodgy areas that are barlanark/easterhouse - grew up there & served my teenage years learning the streets !! my folks all live in a nice part of east kilbride where I later moved onto & now I am here in accy ! |
