WorkOriginally posted by binley100 View Post I have decided to limit myself on the work now as it was over ruling me 
I am thinking of blacksmithing, I had a go a while back and it was fun. I am not suited to woodwork... not very accurate
Just been looking at the prices of things and it seems rather reasonable

An All Round Hobby
How about an indoor outdoor hobby?, one that will have you stretching bending and a little light weight lifting, plenty of fresh air, you can do some of it at night if you are restless, any time during daylight for indoor and outdoor!, it will teach you patience and precision (not mystical eastern practice!), nutritionally advantageous (5 a day), some risk of corpulence!(weight gain).............guessed yet?, it's winemaking
, just think of the wonderful excursions to favoured berry sites, the accidental finds of Giant Puffball (fried with bacon fat), field mushrooms(proper ones) wild sorrel, moneywort for salads, and if you are really lucky, Boletus Edulis the "Cep", a word of caution tho!, do not eat the brown berries found lying on short grass!, the bunnies have already digested any goodness they may have once contained.
Eat well, live well, drink moderately and be happy (hic!)Comment

People who know me find it a bit surprising... but last year I started to get into Mixed Martial Arts... cracking fun, physical and gets you very, very fit if you do it properly.
Without knowing you it'd be hard to make a useful suggestion though. Like the early posts it'd be a lot of random suggestions, any of which could be taken as a joke!
A personal favourite of mine is wild camping - even better if it involves taking a canoe to an island and camping on there - even better if it's midweek in summer and all the tourists are at work so the place is deserted - even better if the night is so nice and mild you don't bother putting up the tent, instead rolling out the mats and sleeping bags by the fire and sleeping under the stars - even better STILL if it's in Scotland and all of the above is completely and utterly LEGAL! The company couldn't have been better either!
