home brew - got a batch of Coopers APA with extra Cascade hops to put on this weekend. Some wine struggling to clear too

RC helicopter - Blade MCx is small enough for the front room; Twister Storm 400 is very much a sports hall / outdoor model. Century Hawk .30 nitro needs a new home as I'm terrified of it. Flown once

music - band practice once or twice a week, plus now & then I actually pick up a guitar too

scale models - got a Tamiya 1/35 Hanomag half track to finish off & a 1/100 3-master (USS United States) that desperately needs the rigging finishing off

oooh, that Raptor is really good,lovely finish.....I can't get a decent finish on planes at all... I've spent that long painting armour,any planes I do end up looking like tanks with wings. It's a good look for pre jet era soviet planes but not a lot of use for owt else:)

I'm trying to learn the electronics. going to build a bench power supply then a function generator to start off with. Done a Hello world / blinking led on a AVR already so will start making useless stuff soon.

Also got a small cheap wood lathe in the shed that I play with. Got a stool on the way but it's looking pretty ropey atm!

This winter I am mostly rebuilding a tractor!

It's a 1955 Nuffield DM4 and was in lots of pieces when I acquired it!

OT for the thread, but plan to do my first off-road night ride this winter season - got next Monday pencilled in to scare myself silly.

Cooking (but that's an all year round thing I guess). Aside from daily sustenance next few weeks will be mostly trying out and tweaking bits of the usual over-ambitious Xmas dinner menu.

TV/films.

Want to get back into a bit of electronic music production (been out of the loop for a couple years now if you'll pardon the pun).

Fettling bike stuff in the mancave (obviously).

Noodling around with art, photo and video stuff.

Wasting time shooting stuff and driving around stuff on the Wii.

Maybe a bit of floodlit archery to keep my eye in.
