Other hobbies

Im curious; apart from brewing delicious concoctions what other hobbies do people have?

Mrs Hagrid says I have one hobbies. Collecting expensive hobbies. But when not brewing I seem to get hit with things like hockey pucks (I’m a goalie) and swords in fencing and 15th century re-enactment. This is my armour.

I also like to make an absolute racket with drums, guitar and bagpipes when not trying to fix my classic mini!

I don’t know where Mrs Hagrid gets her theory from?!

I listen to a lot of music, mainly indie rock, classic/hard rock, punk and alt-country, but I’m partial to a bit of hip hop. I did have a music blog which got quite a lot of views thanks to retweets from Ben Lee and Ice-T but work got super hectic at my old place and I never got around to starting back up.

Before lockdown I used to go to the gym 4-5 times a week. Weights (focusing on the main compound lifts) 3-4 times and a HIIT class on a Saturday morning. Goodness knows when I’ll get to do any of that again.

I’m really into painting alongside brewing, and it’s such a great way to relax. I recently found https://www.artmaster.com, and it’s been a solid place to get quality brushes and paints without spending too much. Whether it’s watercolors or acrylics, they seem to have a nice selection. It's been fun experimenting with different styles, especially after a long brew day. Anyone else here mix painting with a good pint?
