Well I USED to be a champion archer (when i ws MUUUUCH younger) and also used to ride horses rugularly but 4 kids have put pay to that, and since Hubby has been off sick he has started to take an interest in the garden ( a Major achievement :LOL:) and also has taken up CB radio again after a break of a few years - he was going to do his amateur exam but cant find a local course..

Interesting to read what you people do...

I ride Mountain Bikes (fully rigid, singlespeed) and BMX, I work in the cycle industry !

I occasionally go out for chocolate, and come home with a Land Rover of some description !

Always been a pistonhead, and have had loads of quick (proper) cars !!!

Big fan of Rallycross !
