^pics please.

Though when I get a spurt I don't stop for a couple of days at a time.

on second thoughts, no thanks.

My hobbies are being pedantic.
MtD, edit your post, sir.

My hobbies include a wee strum of the six string, a dabble on the seven piece drumkit my housemate has.
Writing, in spurts also. Though when I get a spurt I don't stop for a couple of days at a time.

Getting back in touch with lost friends (due to the travelling nature) is a more recently acquired hobby I am enjoying, casually.

Knitting, embroidery & crochet. In fact I'm a contributing editor for "Crocheters monthly". Got some lovely doilies.

Anyone fancy a nice woolly pully?

haha, no offence but you sound like a grandma

^ That was the intention. In reality I can't even sew on a button!

I thought that my true hobbies of internet fora, reading, & drinking beer were too boring!

Music. Learning to play different musical instruments. I love piano and guitar. I like to spend a lot of time listening to music as well. Richard Clayderman on Piano is my favorite.

My hobbies include;

Translating 8th Century Arabic quatrains into 11th century Turkic sestinas
Organizing football leagues for Sudanese orphans
Traveling around the world in my submarine, Pegasus
Collecting archaeological treasures, particularly fine pre-christian gold and lapis-lazuli work
Being a spiritual and political adviser emeritus to the UN
Shuttle diplomacy
Dying my beard black
Telling lies on the Internet

^ You sound like a well rounded philanthropic liar?

I keep it in a drawer at home, I only wear it on special occasions!

^ And meeting us wasn't special?

The first time was, after that the excitement kinda faded.

That'll be those alco-pops you were drinking. Far be it from me to call into question a mans manliness, but those do have a touch of the Big-Girls-Blouse about them!

I am secure in my sexuality and don't have to pretend to enjoy rugby to be a man In defence of my manliness I'd just like to point out that on the way home I beat 6 tuk tuk drivers up, had sex with 12 woman, rode a 150000cc Vincent Black Shadow to Lhasa and back, led a small military uprising in Shan State, and wrote a novel about fishing and bullfights. (anyway the doctor told me not to drink and alcopops aren't really drinks).

Ah yes, that was the other thing I was going to bring up to cast aspersions over your manhood.

Righto then, according to the Alco-Pops to Manly Stuff Rating scale that I've just thought up right now, all of the foregoing is enough to excuse you two standard serves of alco-pops (i.e. two bottles). I'm fairly certain I saw you with a third!?!

You paid for it and no real man ever refuses a free drink.

Hmmm, real men have beer bellies, ant. How much time do you spend in the gym

It was my round and I did it in the obligatory disdainful manner - at no time did I actually touch said alco-pop and I even tipped the waitress to sneer and give a condescending huff when she served it to him.

My manhood is intact.
