mmm Golf - tried it a few times, but realised that vigorousely fanning a small white ball on a tiny stick with a large wooden club on a long stick got a bit boring and frustating

When i left home early age 14, maybe i was kicked out - cant remember or dosnt matter, I took up living on the streets, a challenging hobbie with little income but things improved when I learnt breaking into houses
Before then I collected ciggerettes - the ones in the ol-mans Kingswood Boot
I got good at nickin-- um -collecting stuff, mainly for survival purposes ha ha, just-a-kiddin- Yas

So, hobbies ive done, billycarts - won my primary school billy cart comp, had to build your own, mainly 2ndhand timber and rusty bent nails, but I scored a good set of pram wheels !
Did a bit of lead guitar for a dozen yrs
Have always had a motorcycle at my disposal - currently a zzr1100 sports tourer,, looking at the Ninja 1400 in a year or two have also a project bike being an 83' Boldore 900 - so another hobby is being a back yard Mech.
Bread Goldfish in the '90's, also had a few 3 & 4ft tropical aquariums nicely aquascaped and kept clean
Horticulture, organic gardening, well, as much as can on a standard suburban block.
Small tool & workshop shed, alway somethin to build/repair/weld or destruct in there ,,,
Fishing and tinnie boats were a major passtime for several yrs.
Martial arts for a few yrs aswell - Kempo - 'one punch one kill' tho I havent mastered killing anyone - - - yet
Always enjoy my own besser block built wood fuel Bbq and enjoy sitting around with a ice cold Rumbo - sometimes its good to cook on aswell
Have always kept my eye on the weather/storms.
Body surfing, camping, bush walking with the occasional standard mountain climb, not as much now with a crook back.
Drugs are a fine hobbie mainly painkillers and antacids, oh - did I mention F**ting
One which prob started as a hobbie but now more inline with a 'lifestyle' is, not taking life too seriousely - one largh you miss out on is one you dont catch up on
