Keanu Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 ...apart from your huskies of course What keeps you going, any interest, passion, usual, unusual, quiet, adventorous, private or social?... I recently got into dog showing, athough not without "but"... I appreciate those shows that award the natural skills of dogs, e.g. Hunting, tracing, pulling (this is the reason I have a pointer and a husky). I do not like shows that award purely aesthetic side of dogs. I could never keep or breed toy breeds and spend entire year grooming, bathing and carrying in a handbag lol I also love cultures and languages, I speak Polish, English, Italian (as far as it goes lol) and I am interested in philosophy. I am also subscribed to Vouge Uk but I am not a "fashion freak" it is rather to see the trends, probably I have a hidden designer inside me:) My OH is very much into chess and stargazing lol.. Oh and gundogs. If the is anybody here who plays chess, Graham plays via email:) Oh, and I like music, especially jazz. What about others?...

RedJasper Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I make jewelry, crochet, cross stich, and I just love to color . I can't sit still I always have to be doing something with my hands. I have recently taken up reading as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julieanne Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I think I've lost a lot of my hobbies tbh, such as Clarinet. I love learning about different cultures and languages. I'm doing spanish at the moment. I'm hoping to start a journalism course next year and will possibly be doing more work experience. I am a little into fashion though I don't always go with what's 'in' if I can't see a reason for it. I generally like to be a little different but not too noticable at the same time. I also enjoy pilates and other toning exercises and try to look after my skin. Cooking is a hobby though not one I chose. The only reason I cook is because I'm fussy when it comes to food, lol. I cringe at the pesky amount of vegies people use in their meals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeonah Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 I enjoy a bit of fishing, nothing like sitting by the side of a lake with not a care in the world. SOOOOO relaxing. During the winter months Ilike to build models, trucks cars etc. and during the summer I have my classic car which I take to shows and carry out repairs to, although, these days, the repairs are few and far between.

MidnightPaws Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I bowl (which i like and don't like, lol) and i do ceramics. I just got a kiln so hopefully i'll be firing it up soon and using it as much as possible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyMom09 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Well between work and the kennel I have very little time LOL, my hobbies include my dogs with Conformation Showing, Dog Sledding/Carting, and Weight Pulling. We'll be adding hiking for our working pack dog this summer, and continuing my own physical training for work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponder85 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I'm into shooting/firearms a lot. I enjoy going to the range, or a field and relieving stress. I'm also into politics. I read political books a lot, and I'm starting to read some books on economics. I will get into chess in spurts. Meaning I'll start playing/studying a little for about a month, then not do anything for several months. I'm not good compared to an avid player, but would beat probably 85% of random people who know how the pieces move, but don't know openings or strategy. I've played drums most of my life. My father was a drummer, so I started early. Been on the back burner recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bec Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I love cooking but dogs are my real passion. I work for a dog training company and in my spare time train my own dogs for obedience competition and more and just enjoy doing things with them.

Ponder you sound like all my family collected together LOL I am into politics as well, my OH is professional economist (we love discussing Robert Peston books together), my brother is a professional drummer in a rock/jazz band. I think Graham would love to have a game with you, I shall pm you his email address. He is good and wins most of games, the only people he cannot beat for some reason are French lOl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Povodny Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I love cooking although when you're doing it every day for upwards of seven or more it can become a chore. Is reading a hobby? Lol I enjoy losing myself in a book but have trouble putting it down once I start. I used to do archery ( recurve bows) and did learn basic Spanish a few yrs ago but have lost most of it through lack of use which is sad as I really enjoyed it. I'd like to try working with stained glass but that would be expensive and not possible at the moment, plus I'd need to evict a few bodies to make room for it!

Sarah Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 reading is my main one at the moment, i used to be really involved in music, i play a fair few instruments but i predominantly played the clarinet in a local orchestra, sadly i haven't time for that anymore which is a shame as i used to love playing in concerts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparks Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I'm quite new to it really Mine is about 150 - 160 Had a few turkey's last couple of times I've been. I am guessing yours is higher than that? Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleLuka Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Reading is one of my favorite past times. Nothing thrills me more than a good book. I also like to paint but sadly don't have much time for it anymore I cook a lot and like trying new recipes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I love to read, and read about 15 books a month on average, sometimes more, and sometimes a lot more I love music, mostly rock/metal, I have listed this as a hobby because it takes up quite a lot of my time lol. I love glass, so have a small stained glass studio at home and am now learning how to engrave on glass, it is slow going though, as it is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. I also play around with wood engraving. That's about it ........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedJasper Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 For several years this was my hobby and my life. I bought her used and completely stock. I spent time and a ton of money building her into a unique show car. The last 7 years have been unkind to her. She sits in the driveway getting no love. The job I currently have (last 7 years) is so unpredictable that I have no time. It breaks my heart to see her just sit. I have tried selling her because I hate seeing her ignored the way she is.
