MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
Music festivals for me.
Noisy, crowded, awful sound and a nightmare to get to and from.
Not to mention the lack of decent beer.
Not jealous at all of all the Glastonbury pics on my fb feed.
amphetamines
Swings (at a playground)
Used to be ok, now (mid thirties) I can do it for 30s and feel like I want to puke
Yunki - Bet you used to hate it back then as well, the morning after anyway.
Amphetamines plus one.
And there was this girl.....time hasn't been so kind.
She probably thinks the same about me..ha
Shooting.
Bet a few chat forum regulars could say same about cycling.
Alcohol.
Used to love it.
Knocking on 40 it disagrees with me in a major way.
Killing things.
Getting so wasted I didn't know my own name.
Did it for many years and had a great time. But these days - a few mellow beers and a good chat does me.
The ex
Killing things for no reason, like shooting spuggies with an air rifle.
Guzzling lager to excess.
I'm not so good on rollercoasters as I used to be either.
Arguing/debating stuff. Used to really enjoy a few beers and discussing, well, anything.
I just cannot be arsed now; probably because I've just formed an opinion most people are stupid - possibly me too 🙂
I was going to add rollercoasters as well. Used to love them but now they just scare me.
Climbing trees. Tried it recently and it scared the bejebus out of me.
smoking
Spending whole weekends in the pub.
Had some good times which I'd never change but probably should have spent some time doing something more rewarding!
Though I guess it helps me appreciate my cycling more...
Marlboro Reds.
Spending whole weekends in the pub.
We were having this discussion yesterday. Ironically over a lunchtime pint. Remember the pre-kids days when if the sun was out, you'd just go to the pub and sit in the beer garden pretty much all weekend? Just because you could. Seems an awful long time ago now.

Having me nappy changed.
Prefer to do it myself now if I'm honest.
Drac, I think there's a balance to be struck...
Yup. Ride to the pub!
Cigarettes
Nightclubs
Bongs

All day Sunday rides having a mid ride pint with 40 miles to go ...unthinkable !!!
And alcohol in general does me in now
Drink instant coffee
Shoot on film (photography is my job)
Watch ITV
Smoking - weed or tobacco.
Drink and drugs.
I really hate driving too.
Lol ITV 🙂
McDonalds
Deep Pan Pizza
Front Mechs
5 Day working weeks
Fly without lounge access
Edit as read driving above
The Commute, me and a mate rationalised that 45mins was livable each way 1hr short term. (By car not bike)
I'm with fasthaggis on this
Killing things.
Used to be a gamekeeper and I was bloody good at my job which meant I was a bit of a murderous bastard.
These days I'd do the shooting with a camera instead 🙂
sniff a condom up my nostril, pull it out through my mouth from the back of my throat and tug it back and forth through my sinuses. Great party trick. Makes everything smell of strawberry spermicide for ages though. Dont fancy doing that again.
Work for a salary/wage

+1
Play the didgeridoo. i was in a band for a couple of years in the early 90s playing with dreadzone, ozrics, eat static etc. Cant stand the bastard sound now.
Freshers.
Oh, and freehand rockclimbing; both had their dangers and pleasures, but in hindsight, both were stupid and a waste of time/money/effort.
Sled dog racing - now I couldn't handle the cold. I'd still like the whole dog training/handling part of it though.
Cigarettes and move back to england
Bad night clubs - used to be fun, no longer.
Cheap lager - I'll pay more for something good now.
Crashing at people's houses - now I either get a cab home or a hotel.
Cars - now an expensive tool that I rent not buy.
Red Bull - formerly on expensive habit, not foul sugary crap
Racing a road bike. I used to do it, it'd be on the front pulling hard all day for the glory boys.
What a total waste of time and effort.
Bitter, me? Oh yes 😆
How rude are we allowed to go on this thread I wonder... 
Getting off my face,
Now I don't like not being in full control of my faculties even in the slightest.
Doner kebabs.
Used to love watching formula 1 when I used to smoke weed. But since giving up the 'erb F1 is of no interest to me.
How rude are we allowed to go on this thread I wonder.
You're going to say spaffing thinking about Carol Vorderman aren't you?
Listening to heavy metal
Drink Carling or carlsberg, can't think of anything else...
close bearni, more like going down on a lady as it was classed as just experimentation back then but is actually pretty nasty nowadays, maybe my taste has since changed.
😆
Listening to music.
Clubbing.
Watch sports on telly.
Gauloises, Disque Bleu and Gitanes. Mind you, now I think about it, if I started smoking again, I possibly wouldn't hate them...
[b]E[/b]
Eat cheese.
going down on a lady as it was classed as just experimentation back then but is actually pretty nasty nowadays
what the heck!!!!???
Nasty?
It's one of life's finest pleasures
I'm not over enthusiastic about going back to shitting in nappies
Yunki!
I'm not sure whether to answer you this but perhaps you get them fresh and clean but I always seem to get that sour salty taste from making them cough squirt cough.
It royally put me off now, so am going to refrain from diving.
Please be my guest and go eat some...
I won't get jealous!
Words fail me. (It won't last)
Human nature/nurture. Most people are two-faced, make the right noises in public, stand for nothing and change their views to suit, support tribal bullying, Schadenfreude and gossip like fishwives; would rather fight and revel in divide than solve anything.
Still it's not all bad you can research and buy loads of stuff twenty-four-seven really cheap.
Listening to new music. This stopped in 2006.
Plus a million on music festivals. Checked out loads of line ups this year and,with the exception of download, I've heard of a grand total of about 8 of the bands not headlining. That and my body won't stand sleeping on hard ground for nigh on a week, without proper plumbing.
3 day+ benders
Ripping my shirt off and dancing seductively while young women paw my fit body.
Oh.... hang on ......no...... cancel that.
Getting drunk. Even though I love beer, I also love being a bit 'looser' but in all honesty, the hangovers are more than I can take.
I used to love rock climbing, soloing in particular, can't take the heights now.
Used to quite enjoy shopping for clothes, haven't been inside a clothes shop now for years. It's good to change.
Running, used to think it was ace. Now it just hurts if it lasts more that 15 mins.
Going to heavy rock gigs.
Going to nightclubs and 'disco' drugs
Smoking
All day pub sessions.
Smoking dope.
Walking dogs.
People talking about festivals - what you're actually talking about is massive festivals. There's absolutely brilliant small festivals out there that are friendly, have great sound, beautiful art/decor, and lovely food/decent beers at normal pub prices. Eden festival in Scotland for instance. 5-10 mins walk from your tent to the stages too. I'm going to Kelburn Garden Party this weekend which I've heard is similar.
People get drawn in by wanting to see massive names headlining festivals - that's not really important to me, it's not usually the things you are looking forward to that you enjoy most anyway. I love festivals with a great atmosphere where you just happen on lots of interesting stuff.
We have a big tent you can stand up in with a queen size double mattress about 2ft high, and put proper sheets/duvet etc on it, it's properly comfy. We do get to go in the crew/artist camping away from the riff/raff though, which is much more civilised. 🙂
+1 for smoking fags
drinking lager.
Eating food in the street.
except ice cream obvs..... and kebabs.
Climbing (rock or gym). Used to do it regularly and be pretty good, came back to it after a long break and seem to have lost my eye. Every time I've tried it I've just got really frustrated and angry with myself, which isn't what recreation is about.
Ramps and rails on dryslope. (i.e. old school Dendix aka Carpet of Death, aka Diamonds of Dislocation)
Great laugh at the time, though. In between lost skin, whiplash, and joint trauma and bruising in fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, back, coccyx, knees...
Can't imagine why I went off it.
