rc helicopters. got quite a collection.
Im quite a keen gardener.
And im not to bad with a paintbrush, figure painting and general arty stuff.
as well as doing stuff with wood ooh eerr!!
 
^^:lol

I like the outdoors all weather, I like gardening, computers, playing my xbox but most of all my hobby is cars. I love them. Next week I get my Boss's BMW M3 V8 for a few days I think, so plenty of time will be spent playing with that. Im working my way up to asking to borrow the Ferrari or the Challenger, so if I don't destroy this BMW I might just get a chance :thumbs
 
Mountain biking, photography, camping, ohh and mechanics/electronics, making things from junk :D

I had an hpi savage and a hyper 7

The savage had about £2k worth of upgrades and I used to hit a bmx 1/4 pipe at 60mph and jump about 100 ft in the air doing triple backups and land on the wheels

Forever breaking diffs and suspension parts, money pit hobby tbh
 
amateur radio , reading , music, helping others where I can ..... and being a superstud ..... its a hectic life :augie
 
Done the Radio controlled cars thing 20 odd years back. Had A Tamiya Avanti that was heavily modified and A Kyosho Lazer. Used to race at a club and made it to Race Director, organizing the weekly heats and Track layout for the meetings. Every year we put a display competition on at Abbey Park show in Leicester.
Have always liked Model railways and have a small N gauge Railway that I save for Wintertime when it's too cold for my other hobby which is Carp Angling.
I also do A fair bit of Rifle Shooting, mainly Rabbits and have just been granted open ticket for my Rim Fire Rifles.
 
fishing/ rifle rimfire and centerfire /shotguns/ferreting drinking lots of beer in fact im having a beer now:D
 
I spend most of my spare time renovating my own house, been in it ten years now,and still another year I recon before it's finnished . It was a real reck, like the Munsters house. no water ,no loo , no windows!

Am I to old to sell up and start again?:rolleyes:

Farming - we have sheep ourselves but I help out an arable friend when I can, he has bigger tractors :naughty

Shooting (shotgun) - mainly game but occasionally I do a great job of missing clays!

Airsoft - like paintball but 100x better, replica firearms which fire plastic BBs

Overly long assault courses - I did Tough Mudder (12 miles) and a Spartan Sprint (5km) last year, doing a Spartan Sprint, Super Spartan and Spartan Beast this year (5km,12km & 20km). I think I'm touched in the head :rolleyes:

Playing with tools in the workshop - lets be honest thats probably a good load of the folk on this forum :lol

I also do some boxing training as part of my training for the assault courses so will probably end up doing some bouting at some point...

I had a Sin-Yih AX5. Brilliant 1/8 buggy! :D

One before that was a crappy Kyosho 1/10 that was forever stripping the damn spur gears.

Don't have one any longer, but I often wish I did. Mind you, I probably wouldn't manage to find the time between breeding quail, hens, ducks, keeping & working ferrets, running my own wee shoot, fishing, & making my own bacon, sausages & cured meats, plus making & smoking my own cheeses. Oh yes, and veg' growing. How the hell I manage to find the time to go to work is beyond me :nenau

That's a hell of a to do list...I'm surprised you find time to sit down for a shit, let alone go to work with that lot. LOL
 
Tell me about it, mate. On the other hand, it's very seldom you'll find me doing everything on the list all at the same time :D
