They are the things we "normal" folk  do in our spare time,  that you have spent most of your working life getting paid to do. ie. Making wargames models, painting models, photographing models and even playing with wargames models.  ;D ;D

Sorry Phil, you walked right into that one

I like watching Rugby (Union) and Medieval re-enactment as I'm not sure boardgames and the kind of computer games I like don't count as bunging dice around.

As the actress said to the bishop :)

The other replies "Me neither."

Keeping the spare tyre down in the gym, reading, photography, learning French.

Oh, and Beryl Reid's famous catch-phrase was "as the art mistress said to the gardener"
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

I'd like you to plant it really deep? Presumably in a grey shed.

Walking, climbing, gardening (digging and weeding where I'm told and cutting miles of hedges) and a bit of sea kayaking but currently having trouble fitting the last one in.

Hmmm hobbies.

Writing Fanfic, designing boardgames, drinking beer, listening to music/radio (both of which I can do while I'm doing anything other than writing), reading the Pendraken forums, reading things like books by Stirling, Weber, Drake and Stoss. Looking things up on the internet, watching movies/TV on DVD, walking and really meaning to go to museums and other places of interest but not quite managing it because of all the other stuff I'm doing.

Aren't Sterling,Webe Drake and Voss a firm of accident claims solicitors?
