Football and cricket (I don't play any more but love watching and theorising.)
Swimming
Ethnomusicology—reading and listening to roots music and jazz.
Writing philosophy—part of my job but I do it for fun.
Reading—anything and everything, but biology, social history and novels loom large.

Tell us something.: "Tell us something" hits me a bit like someone asking me to tell a joke. I can always think of a hundred of them until someone asks me for one. You know how it is. Right now, I can't think of "something" to tell you. But I have to use at least 100 characters to inform you of that.

Well, that one has the right facial expression. Duh... :lol: Once in a while he tries to impersonate a living creature. Doesn't really work for him.

Some times I pick up two pieces of rope and practice knot tying.

Nobody's mentioned steamy sex?

I won't either then.

I like computer games and drawing stupid comics with Flash.
In the nice weather bike riding and throwing frisbees.

I've been able to make my two main interests into occupations, organ building and voicing and gemology (as a gemcutter).

But hobbies still arise - whistles, sing bass in the church choir, still play piano a bit, and I enjoy working outside - flowers and such.

Aussie rules?

I once heard a great description of that:

If Rugby is egg chasing, then Aussie rules is egg chasing in your 8 year old brother's shorts.
