Wavesailing in big winter storms (dry suit a necessity), snow skiing on Ben Lomond and scuba diving. The water (at least down here) is clearest in the winter and a 7mm wetsuit keeps the cold at bay at least for an hour or so.

Unfortunately I can't do any of those things anymore, my back's not up to it.

I've just ordered a cheapy Electric RC helicopter.

I rarely go more than a couple of months without doing some woodwork,

I still dabble in Photography and Astronomy.

I love to go fishing and have a lovely partner who enjoys the same.

Life's good!!
