Hahah Watery, Domestic! For the last twenty years I've been thinking that's some museum classification or some other over my head thing,
and all this time it perfectly describes what I was often drinking! Thanks Tony for righting my thoughts on that! I'm gonna say that when I raise a glass.

I also enjoy: hanging out with my cat, collecting vinyl LPs, and watching horror films.

HA. I should really say UK/Irish food, but yeah. It's historically gotten a bad rap stateside but Americans dont know what they're talking about. Most folks here dont even know about Sunday Roast. Its like a better version of Thanksgiving and it happens every damn week! Fry-ups! Aint nothing wrong with fishnchips and mushy peas either! We went to that spot The Scran and Scallie in Edinburgh like three years ago and i'm still dreaming of their steak pie. Fuck now i'm hungry.

I should add proper Tex-Mex to my original list of overeating "hobbies". That Tres Hombres gatefold is REAL yall.

Spreadsheets - I dont know if this is a hobby for me, per se, but i'm good at em and have legitimately made ones that do modeling for NASA, but also for bowling leagues!

Cycling

English Food

Watery Domestic Lagers



I used to jam in the spaces next door to the gutter before they turned into the current shops! The whole street has transformed over the past 5 years. True shame the Works guys are now gone too. Remember when Ebola hit the gutter?! Place is legendary!

Yeah the Scran and Scallie is nice grub, it’s owned by Tom Kitchin who is actually getting a bit of stick here at the moment for bullying staff, keeping the tips etc

Right! I'm no expert obviously, (from Canada) but I'll add - Roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, (with gravy) Cornish Pasties, English breakfast! :freakout:

Now, As far as other hobbies go - I used to be into mountain biking, road biking, canoeing, rafting, mountaineering, (Alpine, rock, and ice ) downhill skiing, back country skiing, motorcycling.... I'm too old and lazy now. Plus, we don't live in the Rockies anymore. :smashed:

Uggh, British food.
Always feel lucky growing up in Glasgow we have a big Asian population so there's food with flavour. We have Indian, Pakistani, a dozen areas of China, Malaysian, Thai ... I abandoned the shite I grew up on as a young teenager and adopted the tasty treats that were around. I live in Canada now, after a long stint in Asia, but still default to Indian food when I cook. Can't remember the last time I boiled potatoes in a gallon of salted water for a week and then deep fried everything. There is this story that chicken tikka masala was invented in Glasgow.
Dear Bongo, No.
Good deals with all these guys

Here in CZ we have lot of great Vietnamese restaurants but Czechs do not apriciate that much I would say... I also enjoy Indian and Nepal food here. Czech cusine on the other hand is not that great in my opinion. lot of fatty meat and flour-ish sauces... :bangs head:

on more technical note I really enjoy repairing and collecting broken stuff... from bikes to receivers and more recently cheap vintage watches (it takes much less space than 16 bikes and 10 guitar amps... :mrgreen: ).
I also got myself 3d printer about half year ago and trying to grow some chillys this year.
