Seen as ive settled on here now thought I would get some small talk going :p

So whats everyones hobbies and what do they get up to when they aint pulling cables or wiring stuff up?

Me personally I am a gamer, love to play games mostly console based these days but used to do loads of PC gaming.
I am also a keen paintballer, Play for a midlands based scenario team which is the nearest thing to exercise I get these days after quitting martial arts.
Currently I am learning lock smith techniques as well just for fun :)

So over to you lot....
 
Football, Pool and have just recently become addicted to Chess on-line (I blame Biff :)) used to do a fair bit of running but the knee's aren't what they used to be and the waist line is even worse lol
 
I go to the gym, swim, also a climbing instructor so do a fair bit of climbing, I also run a small garage so usually have a bit to do there, quad biking, play pool, walk the dogs, love my RC as some of you will know! and when I get the odd bit of extra free time, spoil the mrs if she's lucky :p
 
I love my video games, currently playing FIFA 13 on the 360... Also a bit of a fan of COD...

I love doing anything hands on really... Do all my own work on my car (just invested in paint spray kit as bodywork was the only thing I'd not tried!) and love learning new skills. Do a lot of work on my own flat and for friends (plastering, plumbing, occasionally electrics but I'm not very good!)

Like a bit of mountain biking but my MTB buddies (a married couple) moved away a while back so I don't get out on the bike anywhere near as much as I'd like...
 
Running mainly now, used to be a martial arts instructor until a few years ago but had stop due to work commitments. Football, playing music and most of all, being a dad:)
 
Love guns, cars, (dragsters), classic cars, art, calligraphy, clay pigeon shooting, piano (used to play), reiki, music, reading......... finding the time to do some of these things is the problem. :59:
 
I like most things with engines in them, so quite a bit of my spare time (when I get some!!!) is spent on my car, doing bits and bobs. Always work to do on it.

Got to the gym most weeknights. Just got into my garden too this summer, starting to get it looking a bit tropical and nice. Going buying another palm tree today actually.

And the rest of my time is spent drinking, watching rugby and listening to the misses whine and moan at me (Not that kind!!)
 
I just completed the best game ive played at top level ..... The Last of Us ... now thats on PS3 and the graphics were off the scale so really looking forward to the PS4 which has already walked all over x-box new offering with graphic capability and power... December release confirmed for PS4; XBOX 2 weeks prior.
