Records - 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!
Playing cricket. Used to play semi-professional football but cricket really took over, I enjoy it far more. Now that the seasons overlap it makes them mutually exclusive for me.
As well as fishing, cooking and of course, getting absolutely blotto on hoppy ales, red wine and the rest.
Music (but not a vinyl collector). Regularily go and see shows. 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.
Used to go fishing every weekend , up at 5 am back when it was dark ! not been so much of late as my little lad started playing football so im watching him .
I cant seem to pass car boot sales as well !! always have a walk around looking for vintage fishing reels , fishing tackle, i used to collect alot but sold most of it ( mainly to Japan )
I also love watching amature Rugby League , seen some cracking games , and when it kicks off theres no one to stop it !!! Mickey Vann the boxing ref was at 1 not so long ago , his local team were playing mine , he was pacing all around the touchline shouting and screaming his head off !
Oh, I suppose I could list travelling as well. In the past 2 years i've been to Japan, Sicily, Sardinia, the Ile de Re (off there again tomorrow), LA, Mexico (Yelapa, stoner's haven), all for between 1 week and 1 month, plus a few more regulation trips to europe and the UK. I love islands and island people, they generally seem to be more agreeable than mainlanders.
I played semi pro rugby league for 12 years and then when my Mrs tried to get me up for work one morning and I couldn't move I thought somebody is trying to tell me something. I loved watching my son play pro youth football, from the age of 15- 19 he was with Ayr Utd, was offered a pro deal and they pulled it whilst we were in the car travelling for him to sign. I'm now in the gym 5 days a week nothing serious just trying to get the muscles out from under the fat 5.30 am - 7am and then to work. Steve your dogs are beautiful, I had one myself Gzzmo who died in 2006, always wanted another but nothing compares to Gizzmo

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
have spent a ridiculous amount of time and money hunting down rare soul vinyl.. Cut right back over the last 12 months but still got a decent collection.
started out northern like above but quicly got into soul music in general and all the different genres.
used to travel all over to nighters etc but thats taken a back seat now I have 3 young kids. Just 3 or 4 a year now.
Playing youth football. Been playing it ever since I was 11. Play for an under 17s, 21s and North of Scotland. Made it onto the bench for a Highland league team too. 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.

Did you build your bike youself? I've done up an old raleigh racer but still haven't stripped/resprayed the frame....detracts from the effect a little bit!
