just to let you guys know i think this forum is one of the best ive seen on the web ive spent three nights reading so far

was wondering if any of you have any other interests other than your cars

i enjoy a bit of online gaming ive played bf2 in a team ladder and our team was rated 12th out of about a 1000 teams

i have 1 child 14 month and 1 on the way so come sept OMG we will be rushed off our feet

[Markie]

I do love my golf and football but cars take up soooo much of my time as well as work and family that i never get to play or watch either  

And with an unused ( and waste of time) Politics & Economics degree behind me i keep an eye on current affairs/ politics /business & finance markets.

[stuart30]

Does work count as an intrest as its what i mainly do...oh and help look after the twins

When time allows i have a little fiddle with laptops ect.

[Kevin Wood]

I do a bit of electronics and amateur radio as a hobby.
I also fly gliders.
Not strictly "other than my cars" but I built a Westfield 7 years ago and an continually tinkering with that and am active on the Westfeild Sports Car Club forum (www.wscc.co.uk) and the se7ens list (www.se7ens.net).
Real ale is my favourite tipple and I do my duty by going out every couple of weeks with the local branch of the Campaign for Real Ale and test the beer in the local hostelries. It's a real tough job but someone's go to do it!

.. and you're right about this forum. A really great bunch. Try to get along to some of the events and put some names to faces sometime.

* as in ex biker, car fan, railways, military aircraft & retired civilian SST.

I do combine them like railway videoing ect.

[bob.dent]

Obviously a keen interest in cars, although sadly, not in maintaining them

All forms of motorsport, particularly F1 (go Lewis!!)
Football (watching not playing) - Spurs supporter
Music - love of my life.
Go to the gym twice a week although not sure if it's a chore or pleasure but it keeps me reasonably fit!
Reading when I get time

**edited** Oh yes.................and did I mention breasts? (small medium or large!)

[Markjay]

...Katherine 0.5 years, William 2.75 years....

...are you an engineer by any chance?  

[Markjay]

I am in IT, so computers don't qualify as a hobby, rather as a pain...  

Other hobbies include target shooting at NRA Bisley on (some) weekends.

But yes... above all cars... always has been.  

My little one is 5.25 years old (using the metric system as per Mark's example).  

[Jimbob]

Again the kids, 3 years and 6 weeks take up most the time.
Also big enjoyer of breasts, and photography.....Maybe we should have some sort of club event combining these 2 hobbies
Like watching films
I keep both Pond and Tank Fish
Play with Pc's a bit, tech support for the area etc.

[Big Rod]

Hmm, I can't say I'm much different to any of the rest of you.

I work with computers a lot and dislike them and anything to do with them with a passion. Pays the bills though.

The 'weans' take up a wee bit o' time, although ahving just had another recently, (5 weeks!), I don't know what all the fuss is about. We hardly know we've got her and our oldest, (nearly three yrs), has taken to her admirably so he's very little trouble too. (OK, I know we're lucky!!)

What else, I'm a fully signed up member of the BBAC. (Big Breasts Appreciation Club). Like a bit of DIY, (But suck at painting for some reason!).

Any spare time I might have in future will most probably be taken up with my next automotive project. I've decided to start doing track days at Knockhill. So I bought my mates Calibra off him for that purpose. Then I got the chance of an Opel Monza as a trade for an old 24v Senator engine I had lying around. (RWD!  8-) ). Then, while I was having my Omega looked at in the local garage, I commented on the pictures of the mechanics rallying exploits. I mentioned I had bought Monza for track days and he told me his mate has an ex-works rally spec' Monza for sale. Fully caged, 260 BHP Swindon engine, fully adjustable suspension, etc etc and a shed load of spares for much cheapness!!

So I'm going to look at that on Sunday with a view to hooning it around in a big circle of a Sunday!!

Just wondering how SWMBO will react!!  :-?

Anyone want to buy a Calibra?
