mozza Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I like collecting and renovating old clocks, have several wall clocks dating back to circa1910..Ive spent this afternoon working on three non-workers, and have successfully got them all working, albeit it will take a few days to collaberate them but very satisfying to put 'life' back into them.

Cisse Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I'm interested in wrissausageches. Old and new. Just lost an auction a couple of hours ago with 1950's Piaget. Gutted. Really, really gutted. 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' /> Nice hobby though.

blackNwhites Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Psychology at the moment, and playing guitar. When i did my design GCSE I made an electric guitar. Just the body and neck, borrowed the electronics from an existing guitar when I soon realised I was out of my comfort zone. Would love to give it a proper go again, wouldn't mind making an acoustic aswell. That's my future hobby, wood work. I'm nothing without my music though, so I guess collecting songs or albums. Not quite the same as the old days collecting vinyl or casettes, but I've got a fair few mp3's. I'm also an excellent day dreamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My eldest loves his guitars, his next plan is to make a replica Red Special (the one what Brian May uses) but at the min he's just setting up house so for now it's on the back burner. I'm sure he'll get round to it one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott_dcfc Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 In my spare time if none of my mates are at the pub, I like to produce music or play games for the PC. Currently getting slaughtered on FIFA 13 daily. In the middle of a hell of a lot of projects on the music side of things. R&B, Hip Hop, Drum n Bass, Hardcore. I try to DJ too. I used to rap too. Did a lot of gigs around Derby (all free of charge) the biggest one I did was the Love Music Hate Racism Festival that happens once a year. Getting a house and all sorts of things set me back a few years on that side of it... Oh yeh, I love football! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
