Wow Amelie, leave some stones unturned for the others!!!!!! lol.

You seem to have a fair few interests, and far from being 'boring', I think its what can give somebody character and even 'eccentricity'! My parents used to make thier own wine and grow thier own produce (a bit like Tom and Barbera Good in the Goodlife, lol) when they were in thier late 20's/early 30's. I think I could enjoy gardening if it wasnt for the bloody insects cos Im a bit unnerved by creepy crawlies. Im quite envious of your reading hobby too, I cant seem to apply myself to books anymore .

Dont suppose you want a six seater late 50's dining table, chairs and sideboard going cheap , lol.


Walshy, I used to catch the Ribble/Stagecoach x43 bus to manny nearly every weekend for £2 return purely to go to Split Skates with my mates IT WAS THE BOMB! lol, Infact I used to buy some tapes from there called 'hardcore' with those crazy digital swirl covers that were about in the very early 90's. We later used to skate the BBC Curbs (Amstrad) and cause chaos boarding down to it after we snacked out on riduculousy large amounts of french fries, McNuggets and ofcourse milkshakes or pints of milk from the newsagents! Back then, being a skater, drinking pints of milk was SO cool. .
There was some other places too, but Ive forgotten where we used to go. There was always that myth of Femi Bukalona (sp?) ollie kickflipping park benches n stuff -remeber that? lol - never met the guy though.

Do kids still do 'Hobbies' as we know it? Or is it all technology based lke Xbox and computers on the majority?

I still have my Alien Workshop 'Slick' deck with Indie's and Powel Peralta 'lemons' somewhere in the loft space under ten tons of other shite. I still get the itch to have a dabble - if only for the excercise and time away from the bloody 'puter!. Only thing is, all my local haunts have been demolished - the old ASDA has gone, my old infant school has gone, I can hardly show my face in town or park on it these days going back to basics of nollies or even the 'coffin'



Sirius.
