What's you 2nd or 3rd favourite hobby? (meaning......without DAWs or instruments etc...)
 
Growing up, I played a lot of sports for school as well as recreationally (soccer, cricket, tennis, chess, racquetball, B-Ball etc...), so being very competitive in nature, I'd most enjoy joining a cricket team. However, that's a big commitment and my children still being small, I'll have to wait until they're a bit older where they also could (possibly) appreciate it to some degree.
 
Since I built my PC 2 summers ago, I totally enjoy playing video games (possibly because I didn't play much...if any.....when growing up) and with all the PC technology available, the gaming experience is very enjoyable . Genereally, I like to play against other people/teams online and compete in a not so serious environment....like Team Fortress 2. No way am I even close to what some of these real "gamers" online are (they've taken playing video games to a whole new level) and is much more than I ever care to be in. Still, I can easily enjoy spending a good afternoon playing online games.
 
I suppose, this is currently my 2nd hobby........what's yours?

In the summer it's golf and boating. I bought a boat last summer and have it docked so that I can just drive over, untie it and I'm out on the water in minutes.
 
In the winter I read a lot. That and chase my much younger wife around. If she'd tired, not paying attention, and I get a running start, I can catch her about 1 out of 10 attempts. Unfortunately, when I do catch her, I'm just so tired from the running start that I generally just let her go about her business while I stand there bent over and gasping.

GT6 on PS4-trying to get under 8 minutes on the Nurburgring in a McLaren GTR.
(I was going to say gardening but that's just too woosy.)

fulminating, I guess.  I'm very good at that.

In the summer we enjoy camping. Just recently got my ham radio license and that is starting to look real interesting!

It's actually quite hard to come up with something that's totally un-related to music, because it occupies a very large part of my life one way or another.
 
Reading, I suppose. I love books and try to read a bit every day.
Watching series with my wife on her day off.
Working out - though that's associated with music because that's where I do a lot of my music listening.
Playing with our cats.

Shooting, at local and national level.  I'm in the county team.
Ham radio, though not as much as I used to.
Bike club member,  I'm entertainment officer which basically means I run sound at our events and book the acts.
I used to play video games when I was younger but I can't keep up with them now.  Unless it's Kerbal Space Program, I'm addicted to that..

Is forum posting considered a hobby?
