Do you have one?
I kinda feel i should but at the same time they just feel like unpaid work.
Grew some herbs and it was kinda exciting i like the idea of making a hydroponic set up but i know id get bored quickly. I think i just have a short attention span too, thst might be why i like cooking as at the absolute max any project is gonna be 36 hours or so |

I need one but I can’t be bothered to find one that suits. I’m getting very restless in my free time at the moment.
I’m considering fly fishing or metal detecting as I have access to land that allows me to do both unhindered. |

Everything is work though.
I am the human embodiment of laziness.

Your profile suggests your motorbike is a hobby!
If you need something for the winter then whitewater kayaking is a great one for north wales haha |

I like up-cycling furniture.
Got a few things from British heart store and emmaus (it’s like a second hand shop that sells furniture)
Had a huge Welsh dresser which was dark walnut coloured wood. I painted it with white chalk paint and stuck some flowers on the top with fairy lights and it’s now in my living room, it’s actually lush.
Also bought a dressing table with mirror and drawers for £35 quid. Painted it and sold it for £80! |

I have actually looked at making a few peices of furniture i have some good ideas metal is cheap and im pretty sure i could learn to weld. (Or in the case of a copper peice i want to try i have a blow torch to solder it) but i fear id lose interest before i got anywhere.
I tend to need company anything tjats solo i get bored of fast |

If your job isn't fun then you're in the wrong line of work.  |

Ada has dungeons and dragons, I’m still yet to find a hobby, I know I should get one because if I’m not working (we work where we live) I’m just in our accommodation getting bored lol.
Geeky x |

My hobbies are completely uncool and dorky. I like genealogy, jigsaws, sci-fi/fantasy, DIY and gardening. I binge fir a couple of weeks then get bored with each special interest quickly and move onto the next. I'm really an elderly man trapped inside a 37 year old woman's body  |
