I also make costumes and actually have a set of Mandalorian armour.
One of many 'wip' costumes.
I've got a couple of 3D printers that keep me busy too. |

truthfully I don't have any 
I've been saying for years I need to find something I enjoy but with shift work and unsociable hours at that, I didn't see the point in joining a group or something where I may only be able to attend once every few months due to clashing with work.
I do feel the need to do something productive tho, so for now I'm looking at sorting my house and garden. It's gonna be a slow process due to time and finance constraints! |

"I keep marine fish on quite a big scale
In fact I am massively into it and breed clownfish (Nemos’s) very successfully
Yes I’m a geek "
I used to keep tropical fish, my biggest tank was 260L
I often wanted to make the jump to marine but never actually did it.

We’re so cool, we need to setup a stitching circle lol
Never mess with something who has the patience to stab something thousands of times over and over again 
The biggest one I’ve been done is a rocket “cutaway” by Bothy threads , it ended up being a bit bigger than a3 size and took my years to complete as I picked it up and put I down again. |

Somewhere off the edge of the map... 'ere there be monsters |
I've coasted through my twenties, really. I've thought a lot about things I want to do, but I've not actually done any of them yet... I told myself that my thirties were going to be different, the 2020s were going to be my decade! It's not got off the the start I had in mind...
A lot of it is time and money, and a lot of it is lockdown. But basically I want to learn how to cook properly, I want to learn how to dance properly (dirty dancing - Argentine tango, mambo, salsa, etc), and I also want to learn to play the piano!
Any teachers want to take on an eager student post-lockdown?? |

Struggling with the guitar for 50 years now, I always wanted to be the guy who walks in a music store, picks up a guitar and shred it! I can finally do that now...
Photography, astronomy and traveling nowhere, also beer!

I enjoy trying to play my guitar. I will never be any good at it but it gives me a certain pleasure. My main instrument is drums, but that would be unfair on the neighbours lol |

Try some of the electronic drums, they can be a whole lot quieter, especially with headphones.
I have never missed a day practicing the guitar in 50 years since I started to play and like to say that if I can hear it, I can play it! It did not come easy, and I would say, am just about a little above average, but nothing more! |

It’s so hard I use to play in a thrash band as a kid every single day for 5 years and now hardly ever get to play my guitar 
Love outdoors , photography, wild / free camping and travel, sci-fi and French films , making bread , being a weirdo and mentor teens through a charity. Love to read biographies and play classical guitar when not working which is not often right now |

Another guitarist here, self taught, played for 30 years on and off, Been in a few bands, mainly original material so I can’t be judged by the composers version currently play in a doom band (drop A tuning) and when at home I play my own version of classical on acoustic |

Love it .... remember taking frames to be chrome dipped ! I used to collect 80s arcade machines but also ran out of space plus maintenance of those boards is getting really hard. Still on the lookout for missile command or Phoenix at a decent price though |

My lad has an electronic kit but I really don’t have the room to set anything up at home. This is not normally a problem as I have one at work, but the lock down has prevented me from going in. Being able to play an instrument is a wonderful thing and being able to play by ear is amazing.
