Was wondering what you all do in your spare time.

May be of help to each other.

Me, shooting, poker, diving (open water that is, before any comments) and flying my model helicopter.
 
i sit on a wooden fence and make notes of all the pretty numbers on the sides of railway stock as it it hurtles down the tracks. then i go home and eagerly excite myself at the new numbers i have found, i then conain my excitement and use it to stick conduit and adaptors together when im at work.
 
Powerkiting, landboarding, racing my jap car & bike & drinking (not whilst driving).


powerkiting! i tried that about 2 years ago, this well built bloke was getting dragged up and down the beach on his back and asked if i wanted ago, it was in the air for 40ms!!
 
what bike you got Cirrus?

powerkiting, had a go at that a couple of years ago, have never been so battered,bruised and scared in my life and this is coming from someone who used to do HALO parachuting in the army, has been shot twice and worked in war zones.

Monty,

so what is this 'dog showing':rolleyes:

is it like "ere, look at me dog":p

or is it the full, 'groomin, tail spruced up, manicured nails Crufts type dog showing'?

jeez, that must take some dedication:)

Its the second and tbh depends on the breed, costs too much though :)
 
I tried dog showing once but the ex wife objected to the pictures being made public!!!

Seriously, tend to just chill and have the occasional drink. Do quite a lot of reading but have just bought a caravan cheap and so spending time getting that up together before I hit the vast expanse of country lanes and cause havoc!!!!:eek:
 
music, playing acoustic gutar and reading - too old to do the kick boxing now but still do a bit of Iaido and Jodo now and again

Yamaha YZF600R is my new toy. Am new to the biking scene.

powerkiting?

landboarding?

c'mon Cirrus, enlighten me:confused::p

All high octane stuff Shakey. Entails me screaming down a beach on an oversized skateboard being pulled by a 5 metre power kite. In fact, off to Shell Island in N Wales next bank hol to do exactly that.
