HA! You wish!
Actually, now that you mention jelly wrestling... I do like getting dirty (in the non-sick kinda way). Anything from conreting to crawling around in
spider-infested ceilings to working on the kombi to tiling to building walls to pulling walls down.... you name it! I've probably done it.
But having said that, music and go karting are my two main hobbies at the moment.

apart from vw's... i have an extremely serious traditional photography/darkroom hobby ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/asterope/ ) i also collect retro furniture/kitchenware/fabric and once ive got enough money,
i'll be buying a road bike and one of these:

so i'll have all my cycling whims taken care of.
The VW has taken a back-seat to my other hobbies atm (the bug being 100kms away doesnt help much)
in the beginning, the universe was created.
this made alot of people very angry and is widely regarded as a bad move.

I'm with you Barry. Cooking is my next fave hobby. Get lots of practice doing it every day. Also love 80's music, retro clothes, and retro antiques
and furniture. I have my wife to thank for the last one. Here's a pic of one of our pieces. Also got some flying ducks that my Mum gave us.

Well apart from my Bug and another Dub on the way I'm into photography, music (listening to and going to live), piercing body parts (no tattoos as
yet) and I have my bf to thank for getting me addicted to World of
Warcraft! Hahaha :P
I am right into car rallying too (Dad is a well known co-driver) except I have to yell at the scenery too often, so until I have my own car to drive
it's the sidelines for me currently... but I love all forms of motorsport.
I used to love mountain bike riding too until I had to sell my wicked bike.... one day I'll get another one and tear down Thredbo trails!

I forgot I did some Car Rallying in a Mitsubishi Galant...
around Newcastle many years ago...
It was an early model with later model suspension & engine....
I was always in the centre of the field...
My normal driving car was a 71 type 3 variant....
which had curtains in the back to keep the sun off the kids in the summer....
Apple 2C .. I had forgotten they even existed .....
I had one for many years.... had hundreds of discs too...
Gave the computer away... and the discs....
I used to print My xmas & birthday cards then...
Now I just email them... :P:P:P

For me, online clan gaming, computer hardware failure threshold evaluation (overclocking), LED lighting kits (bike and car), Radio Control cars, wood
and metal work, troubleshooting and customised solutions to mechanical problems, quantum physics, linear magnetic accelerators and rail guns (built my
first LMA early last year but the wife made me stop after I punched a hole through the garage wall and the neighbours fence).
Oh, and anything with an engine.
A POSSE AD ESSE.
I live in my own little world, but it's okay, they know me here.

That rod chassis is a nice bit of Fab work. Is it from scratch or based on an original?
Love the flathead jammed way back in it. Should handle a treat.

It's original back to the kick up.
Engine is all the way back because it is for a HAMBster (see the Drag Racing forum).
