Not evil at all
I quite fancy geocaching! Do you have to be really good at using maps and stuff? I swear I would get lost on the way home from work if it wasn't a straight road all the way! It just sounds like such a good way to exercise - getting out and about!

Wow, we're a busy and talented bunch on here, aren't we?
I have FAR too many hobbies. I'm a full-time student of literature so I read a lot, both for school and for pleasure, but I have way too many crafty hobbies. I knit, sew, cross stitch, make handpainted cards, make hemp jewellery, beaded belts, beaded embroidery, patchwork quilting, you name it I probably do it. Apart from crochet. For some bizarre and inexplicable reason I can't crochet despite multiple attempts. One day I will master it.
And we foster kittens for the local Humane Society. Kittens make everything better.

Fostering animals is the best! We've had some heartbreaking moments (lost two kittens from the last litter :sigh
but so totally worth it.

Extra Hobbies
I need to find extra hobbies. I just started going back to the gym. I go through phases with reading. I haven't read anything since Xmas. My OH watches a lot of sport you name it. I need to be doing something. I'm not a one for sitting watching tv/films.
There's only so much housework a person can do, without becoming a cleanaholic!

You lot are so crafty!
I have tried to be crafty, but I am not very artsy. I am a very writer, which is one of my biggest hobbies. I write stories and poems. And I also adore reading, the two sort of go hand in hand though, i think.
I also play Roller Derby, which is a fantastic work out for the lower body, and it combines balance, cardio and strength. Sometimes I cannot sit down for days afterwards, haha. But it's worth it.
I also recently happened upon rock climbing! The OH and I went to Alton Towers, and while we were there, had a go on the rock climbing wall they have. Have to admit, I came off shaking and exhilarated. I was the scariest thing in the park! Have to have another go, but the classes are so expensive, and I am a lowly student

I love cooking, reading, swimming, am just waiting for the pool to heat up a bit and will be in every day, great for toning up.Collecting antique porcelain. We breed dressage ponies , not for profit, we never sell them, just lease them, an expensive but fascinating hobby. Also am rarely seen out without my camera.
