So guys noticed in a few threads lately we've discovered some of us have the same hobbies (aside from herping) I know a few of you are budding photographers, some of you are into cars and such. Thought we should have a thread where we can list what other hobbies we're into- helps build friendships and such if you have something else to talk about :)
I'll go first, aside from herp's I am into;
-Video games ( I only have a PC, PS2, Xbox360 and Wii now though, I really miss my old PS3 so probably get a new one later)
-Reading and Writing (Not very good at the latter but I enjoy myself :) )
Roleplaying games (I started a dungeons and dragons group with some friends a few months back, total geek now ^^ - also used to do some online RP when I was younger)
That's about me, I'm pretty boring when you take the snakes out of the picture lol- how about you guys? |

Think i answered this last time ages ago lol but i'll say it again :P
Roller derby has taken over my life, i play for the London Rollergirls recreational team (hopefully will one day make it into the main team)
Play on the Xbox when the other half isn't on it, never been interested in online multi player stuff mind... waiting for a spare 5 mins to start the new Transformers game!
I cycle to work every day and that's grown on me a bit lol
The new cat has also stolen my soul and emptied the bank account... i swear she has my PIN number...
Love reading a bit of Terry Pratchett, and like animation and films in general... the usual! |

Hmm, hobbies... I have a xbox360 and PS3, but have not played either for more than an hour total.
Not into watching sports at all.
Mainly I enjoy socialising, with friends or the car club that I am a member of. if it involves going out, then thats for me. Cinema, eating out. weekends away. |

My other hobbies: photography & volleyball. When I was living in Poland (where I come from) I used to grow cactus. I had about 400 different species from all over the world. I spent fortune on them and now nearly all of them are gone as there is nobody who could look after them properly. |

i dont really have any hobbies as such, we have our animal family a cat 2 birds and a snake, 4 children ranging from 16 - 7.
i quite like to read but havent done so since reading the 50 shades trilogy cause they were so S*** and it kinda scunnered me that i had spent good money on them. i quite enjoy baking with the little ones and doin arty things again with the little ones n thats it really,
im a bit of a clean freak so most of ma time is spent doin that :)

I too play Xbox360 (andybeta - if you add me mention the forum.)
I fly dual-line trick kites and run an online shop selling kites and a forum about it (www.fracturedaxel.co.uk)
I'm getting into mountain biking, but so far I've been sticking to local trails and working on my nerves and skills.
I play D&D (4th Ed) with a group of friends. We rotate DMing between campaigns. We also play other board games.
As a family (wife and two girls, 5 and 7) we enjoy geocaching (www.geocaching.com)
I also have a growing interest in whole leaf teas.
Keeping snakes (well, a snake) is probably my most recent hobby, but already I'm considering some inverts (Mantids) as well. |

My hobbies. Well aside from my Family and friends (Both Human and scaly, who take up most of my spare time) my main love is music.
I go to as many gigs as I'm able to(and allowed to, hubby is strict LOL). I used to be in band and love everything to do with music. I'm a Rock/Metal chick mainly but have eclectic tastes. When asked what sort of music I like I usually reply 'Anything good!".
I also love to read or watch a good film! I'm still a bit of a gamer when I get the time too (PS3, Xbox 360, Wii, 3DS etc).
Outside of home I love Theme Parks and long walks in the countryside. Oh and I also like to cook and bake. |

I love reading (when I have the time!) and I have 4 cats. I also love motor sport and have been to Brands Hatch 3 times on an Open Pit Lane day where I have driven my son's car round at immense speeds! He has a Focus RS and it goes like s**t off a shovel! |

Posted this in wrong thread lol
Aside from Herptology, I'm an Xbox gamer (feel free to add me, my tag is UndyingMoon), motorsport enthusiast (I did have an amateur racing licence many years ago). I also do photography (will post a link when my phone allows me lol), and even further back I used to do a lot of drawing/painting but unfortunately I don't have the time any more :-(

Single mum of two youngsters = barely any time for hobbies 
When I'm not running around after them I'm working, and when I'm not doing either of those things I'm the secretary for the school PTA and spend a lot of time at meetings (some of which are in the pub if my mum can have the children for the night ) and lots of time planning and helping out with fundraising events. It's fun!
If I had more spare time I'd get more into gardening as I like growing things

Used to be into gaming but now the xbox, ps3, ps2 and Wii just sit gathering dust. This was probably because I was crap at them unless they were designed for 5 year Olds.
Other hobbies that have fallen to the wayside due to age or expense are scuba diving, karate, golf and caving.
That just leaves sailing. We have a yacht moored about 35 miles away from us, but we haven't been up there much this year due to still getting into a snakey routine. Besides trying to get a teenage daughter and a wife who acts like a teenager organised is proving difficult. |
