    Playing music. Even just spending a little while playing along to some music is a nice way to pass the time.

    I suppose building PCs is another, but it's not exactly affordable to do every night.

    Movies. Everything about them... bar empty-headed celebrity gossip. But everything about production, history of movies, blah blah blah... Has helped my team win 2 out of 2 annual table quizzes here in work.

    Apart from family etc...
    Hurling - Playing it (badly), training for it, watching it, training it (i.e. being the trainer), talking about it.
    Cars.
    Cooking - Well, I suppose more entertaining than cooking. I love to have a few people around, cook them a nice dinner and have a bit of a hoolie.

    Quizzing!

    I love it! Watching them on TV, setting them, partaking in them. I've even been known to raid the trivial pursuit box on occasion.

    I also am into home sewing and making garments, but that's a new enough thing so I don't want to declare my undying love just yet.

    I done this once. I was drunk and had long hair.

    I didnt do this twice. I was sober and had shorter hair.

    Friends who go travelling always seem to come home with these and convice their slightly less well travelled and significantly more easily led astray friends to try it when they have drunk whatever hooch theyve brought home with them. :(

    Hes good.
