    Just wondering what people do for a hobby or pastime?
    I've never really had one and I'm looking for something that's not football or GAA related....and doesn't cost a fortune!

    Poker. Doesn't cost a fortune but makes you a fortune.

    Hiking and fishing for the win.

    I've taken up sailing...INSC provides everything you need and over all it's not madly expensive

    At night? How do the trout see the ickle flies? Can trout even see?

    My hobby involves waving at random people driving their cars.

    I keep very fit, and I know that I wouldn't be hanging about online forums that's for sure...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,754 ✭✭✭oldyouth


    Photography. Doesn't have to be costly, but addiction to it heads you down that road


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,293 ✭✭✭1ZRed


    My biggest?

    I'd say masturbating.

    Sad thing is I'm not even lying. College actually can't come soon enough!

    Followed by painting and drawing.

    I used to do that loads when I was still in Germany... I have to say, I wouldn't be brave enough to cycle in Ireland. Not on these roads, with these drivers around.
    Good for you, though, I admire the guts. :)

    Loads of stuff....

    Music - mostly playing, cycling, cooking (and eating!), collecting carnivorous plants and cacti, studying (yes, it can be a hobby...), astronomy, reading... Soon adding field archery to the list.

    I don't own a TV.

    ;)
