Mine is into Warhammer 40K - so spends a lot of time building and painting the miniatures, as well as gaming with a group of our friends who also play. He's also into roleplaying games (mostly sci fi) so likes to write scenarios and plot campaigns etc.
yes and no, he has to 'be in the mood' to do them.
play ps3, dirt bike, remote control car (needs fixing for the last 2 years, one day apparently) fixing his cars, the drag races, great when he gose and takes the boys!!
I am a golf widow....He also loves fishing (out on the bay catching gummy sharks as I type!)
He is pretty keen on watching any sport known to humankind on tv.
Cycling - when I am on here he is on his Bicycle forum talking all things bike with like minded cycling folk.
And photography - and taking photos of bikes......
Both can be quite expensive too.
DH potters (such an old man term lol ) in the garden with the girls
My DH is a ham radio operator so is forever tinkering with radios or searching ebay for parts and new radios.
Oh, and cleaning the garage is a hobby. He gets in the mood every few months and works in it for a couple of weeks (basically just moving the crap around) then loses interest again.
Thanks for all your replies :) Sounds like golf, fishing and gardening are common hobbies lol.
his website (about Victorian Railways), photographing (trains), going for drives (to spot old, disused trainlines), modelling (trains), going to exhibitions (model trains), his Facebook group (for train drivers), meeting friends (to talk about trains).
Plus cooking, getting into a lather about politics and reading Noam Chomsky so he can get into a bigger lather.
Golf, pub poker (though not so much recently), going to football and rubgy, watching soccer on TV and his fantasy football leagues (soccer and american football). Also cricket when in season. He watches a fair bit of teev, especially american sitcoms, which I hate. So he watches them while I'm on here.
None of these are particularly expensive. He's even a good gambler :) All very harmless and gets him out of the house, socialising and exercising. I'm the one who needs hobbies (does BB count as a hobby?:redface:)
