I also go snowboarding whenever possible and some surfing (only once a year now unfortunately - so still intermediate or something, no barrels ;). Love it. Have surfed in Cornwall actually. Lovely place. Talked to the wife about moving there once, but then the kids came and such (both wanted an Englishspeaking country not too far away). Probably just the wine talking though. Also like to draw and paint, but on and off, I suppose.
Lovely dogs, Steve! Live with two cats myself. Came with the missus. Fucking cathair on my clobber. But their charming bastards in their way.
I heard also that Cornwall a lovely place is. Will visit another time ! Love my trips make to the UK and Ireland aswell............... Amazing landscapes !!!!! Much better then The Netherlands, yes !

I'm only 16. Enjoy going for a run and trying to keep as fit as possible. If anyone needs a right back give me a shout.
Quote: sauzee88 wrote in post #4Records - mainly deep house, soul and techy stuff from Berlin/Cologne. Again it can be an expensive and pretty time consuming hobby. Keeps me out of trouble though!
Same here mate, what Berlin DJ's are you into? Been listening to Karmon ( You should give Wowshit a listen) and Amine edge lately. Going to see them both in December
Mainly labels connected to Hardwax & Ostgut and then djs like DJ Pete, Prosumer, Shed, Mr. Ties, Tama Sumo, Dixon, Culoe de Song etc

Are you any good in front of goal?
We need a goalscorer.
Aye, why not!
Meet at the Moss Heaps in Gateshead @ 9.30 Sunday morning for a 10.30 KO.
With whatever spate time I have outside of work and this place I hit the gym and do a lot of bag work incorporating shadow boxing, also rock climb mainly bouldering and starting kayaking. DJ and collector of music, and just working with a colleague on trying to set up an organisation for troubled youths Fingers in other pies but that pays my mortgages. There ain't enough hours in my day but that's how I, like it.
Quote: Victorinox wrote in post #3Records... Mostly Northern Soul, so not another expensive hobby :/
Really good topic this and feel like i haven't expanded more...
Boxing, used to be a good Amature growing up. Now do it personally when i have time. Walking/hiking (or 'rambling' to some people) Used to play football for a team when i was a kid, now play with the fat and unfit once a week. DJ... Northern Soul (as stated), Various House, mostly Acid/Chicago/NYC/Detroit stuff and HipHop/HipHouse.
Ohh, and i am a part-time Bellend, but looking for a more permanent role in the future.
Into shooting, have 4 border terriers and a lurcher to keep me busy, also starting to get into antiques as i'v recently quit school to work as a french polisher, have a pretty small record collection which keeps growing and finally since last christmas getting my first decent camera I'v been having a little go at photography, mainly of the countryside etc as it's on my doorstep.
Other than my clothes and following Leicester, I'm into my cars. Recently purchased my first one, X reg year 2000 Golf 1.6 SE MK4, absolutely love it, doing little things to it and plan on de-badging the 1.6 and GOLF within the next couple of weeks.
Was also into my motorbikes for a bit and rode a Honda CBF125 for just over a year, loved it, although it was a tad cold in the winter. Even being knocked off by a idiotic van driver didn't put me off.
Not forgetting music though, big part of my life since I was young and have always been into it. Used to love my DnB and Arctic Monkeys, but now more into Trance, Stone Roses and Oasis. Other interests include occasionally playing video games and getting pissed on the weekends.

in with you on the lack of sleep. Had a fair bit of wine and a couple of brandies last night so was hoping to get a lie in this morning. Not a chance !!!
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<taken up most of my spare time for the last 8 weeks, but its fair to say i like a beer, preferably in proper boozers, like having a bet too!!
Won't lie into a few computer (PC) games myself, but also just started to get into Air rifle shooting/hunting probably be my next expensive purchase, a new rifle and accessories/clothing. Got a really old one that you have to break the barrel but its got some power behind it.
DJ- love playing to people. Music- vinyl & cd, 81-85 boogie, 80's electro, disco, electro funk, proto house, original breaks, funk, Chicago house, soul. Production- love getting lost trying to put tracks together, got our first release due out next month and 2 vinyl ep's down on paper for releases this side of Christmas (hopefully) and then new year. Photography / drawing / painting / design- anything I can get creative with, just made our new website for the Boogie Cartel, finished a few pieces of art this year too and my eldest has a go with me now which is great. She's also asking for the camera now and enjoys experimenting, I love detailed photos and really getting into the stitches and seams/grains and bringing it all out. Clothing- I've been on the brink of starting my own business for the past 4 years and was almost there this year but had a kick in the teeth from a tailor who was going to be doing it with me but has pulled out due to work load. It's something ill be doing come new year though in a couple of avenues lined up. My children- watching them grow up will always be special and I cherish every day with them. Clubbing- been out and about since the age of 13 and love getting on it at an all nighter and everything that comes with it.
Fly fishing. going to try to get out a couple more times before it gets too cold. Quite therapeutic. I used to do a bit of hillwalking and Thai boxing and going to try to start both again. My missus is a bit of a history and architecture buff and I'll often spend holidays and weekends walking round cathedrals and other old buildings.

I did Thai boxing for a while when I half lived with a girl in Telford and it got me out the house week nights, much preferred that to boxing. I've not done any fitness now for a good 18 months, something I should go back to.

Christ was she worth moving there for ? haha
Telford is one of the weirdest places I've ever been, is there anything there other than all those 80s glass fronted buildings and the shopping centre ?
