There's already a fishing thread, but what other hobbies do you have?
I've been doing a bit of target shooting lately...(pre covid)

Before little one came a long it was shooting beating and off roading. Time, money and koi keeping are stopping me at the moment but would love to get back in to them apart from beating young lads game that stuff lol

Weird, the same, just a different order! Home cinema, Car, Photography!
Oh perhaps not, never been into running, although I was always a fast short distance runner as a kid.
Home Cinema is my passion, gone a bit crazy for that, started with a 5.1 receiver and a mix of speakers in the lounge, fronts were Monitor Audio Silver 8i's with matching centre and surrounds and a portable projector and rollup stand.
Next house was similar but on a bigger scale. Rotel processor / amps, 7.1, MA Gold GS60's, matching centre and 4 surrounds. Loved the sound of those MA GS60s and the Rotel combo for two channel audio too. Think I had a JVC 1080p projector and something like a 100" screen.
Current house on a different scale. Slightly embarrassed to go into the details here, so I'll leave a picture of the finished product and a link to
a build thread elsewhere for those interested....

Im a big petrol head too. First car was a Mk1 Escort, completely rebuilt it including building a new engine and even having a go at welding (not such a good idea). It rusted into dust eventually, shame as they are worth a fortune now, would love another one. Love my Evo6 too though, but since the kids have been around it's barely been used and apart from still loving motorsport, haven't been into driving fast as much, must be an age thing. For someone who likes cars so much it's bizarre that my daily driver (535d) is the same car that Ive been using for 13 years now! Keep telling myself to change it as life is too short, but can't bring myself to part with it, even though it owes me nothing!
Learnt photography at school and really enjoy it when I get into it, but it's something I put down and leave for years at a time and then pick up again and feel the need to spend money on it! Probably won't do that again as I think my Canon 6D is better at taking pictures than I am!
