As for me, I love waking in the hills aound my city, heritage and culture tours in the British Isles, bird watching, reading, Music, food/cooking, meeting with friends, and many club activities, local political debates,gardening, looking for shells on the seashore with the dog, and of course Forum Garden.

Cycling, biking, walking the dog in the park, camping, fishing, hiking, golf, BBQ's with family and friends, travelling any time I can afford it, reading, going to the many festivals, that we have locally. Poking around along the river banks for rocks and just relaxing. Visiting small towns and exploring.

I love music, and I'm getting back into it again after a mid-life hiatus. I learned to upload all my CD's to my computer and then it will burn a mix CD lickety-split!

I'm on my 12th mix CD already!

I also love videogames, I always have ever since the advent of the "Pong" game. (Ask me later for the story on how my father and his friend at the National Bureau of Standards invented the "pong" game.)

I enjoy listening to music and have a nice collection of baroque classical pieces - mainly by Handel and some by Bach, Mozart and others.

I recently purchased a Bose Wavetable CD player as I wasn't fully satisfied with the reproduction quality of my existing system. The Bose quality is quite awesome.

When not listening to music I torture myself and frighten my long-suffering wife by indulging in some 'day trading' on the stock market.

Those who also follow this persuit will know that it is not something to do if you're in any way nervous or prone to bouts of worry!

If I've had a particularly 'exciting' session in the markets, I calm myself down by playing some nice relaxing music.

LOl! That's by far the most time consuming of my hobbies! It'll eat up your life if you let it!
