Making and painting/airbrush  fishing lures , just something to get lost in for a few hours... @tillylamp nice pictures mate , I keep meaning to have a go at some other stuff other than the lures. 

other than hunting, what are your past time hobbies....Arry likes his metal detecting plus some others on here.....paulas likes his motorbikes.....and socks makes some good knives....so on and so on..

Making my dad regret not pulling out is also one of my favorite hobbies ?

I'm a bit of a fitness freak and gym four days a week alongside averaging about 50-60 miles a week around the local mountains with the lurchers. Played rugby for more years than was probably good for me and try to get out and watch a local game when I can. I also have two young Grandsons who i take to mini rugby training and gymnastics, also trying to dysgu Cymraeg. Thinking about it I'm not sure where I find time to work lol. Definitely wouldn't have it any other way though, the last few years have shown us that life is very fragile so I'm a firm believer in making hay while the sun shines and making the most of the hand you get dealt!

good post mate....and making the most out of your life is spot on bud......

I’d count the lurcher as hobby but not it’s not really it’s just what gets done when not working whatever time of year dog still needs out and so do I 

horses in the summer we’ve thing called common riding in the borders in most towns here have a google great craic and great traditions still being upheld that’s may till September there’s nearly something on every other night 

fancy getting into tumbler pigeons my dads big into racers I’ve not the time or the passion but the kids love there pet doves so feels like a next set on the ladder 

 

extremely lucky that I love what I do for a living even if I won the lottery I’d still do it but for free or a donation to charity lol
