My little brother would do that sort of thing but with tunnels, loves them. Actually, I filmed for 4 minutes going through a tunnel heading to the Alps because I knew he'd love it. 😕

That's 1.5 minutes of my life I will never get back.

Bast****.

My missus and her mates think I'm a certifiable nutter for going mountain biking in the dark. Whats unusual for one man is a necessity for another (or meat vs poison). etc etc.

A little bit of [url= http://spitalfieldslife.com/2011/01/05/the-manhole-covers-of-spitalfields/ ]this[/url], trust me it can get quite dangerous at times.
My old man used to take photos of the underside of bridges when he was in the navy. 🙄

I try (and mostly succeed) to try and grow exotic plants in my Scottish garden.

I have suffered a lot of losses after the last two horrible winters though ;(

That bit where he presses the 'down' button about fifteen times is ace. Really!

No really unusual hobbies, but I did build one of these this morning:

You know them fights people have. Like that lightning bolt stuff. Do people coreograph them first so they know everyone who's going to die or do they just get angry and shout until they win?

It looks so bizarre. How do they decide?

i found them interesting.and i bet the gentleman who likes lifts has a memory for them like kim peeks (the genius,dustin hoffman based his rain man character on) at the end of the day if you enjoy something (as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else,all power to you i say 🙂

samuri - no, it's meant to be "real". So the swordfights are meant to be based on your scale. And if you're a magic-dude, you get to shout "lightning bolt" at people and they're supposed to know to fall over / wriggle around.*

*Disclaimer - I used to work with/share lifts with a guy who was HEAVILY into this, I have not personally particapated!

The background noise sounds like the living dead, is this what Coventry's like?

They make the world a richer and more intricate place. I wonder though in the world of "lift appreciation" if there are verbs to "rag" the button?

Someone I know has a thing for washing lines. She takes photos of washing lines and keeps a scrapbook of them from around the world. She is also a keen film analyst interested in representations of laundry and washing lines. A bright women too who could make a lot of money advising clients such as Unilever and ad' agencies.

I used to collect fire extinguishers. I have even been given some as presents. I got rid of most of my collection but do still have one or two favourites at home. I do have a bit of a thing for Tupperware too :oops:.

Now-a-days I just stick with Arthropods, mainly Arachnida, though I don't think there is anything unusual about them.

While I'm at it I'll admit to liking the manhole covers too.

Hmm, I find my OCD ness has recently extended itself to making me form lists of uncool people I don't know on an internet forum i have only just joined, I think I might have a problem.
