lindylou 07-11-2006, 02:17 PM I used to paint but I havn't done anything in a long while. ( I might post some pics of my paintings - although they are not marvelous) :)
I like books, mainly factual ones like biographies, history, travel, cultures.
Liverpool history. I have quite a few books on L'pool, and over the years I've collected lots of cuttings and info which I have in scapbooks.
I love my plants, my fishtank and my dog :)
Since we got this computer this is now my main hobby. :)
I quite like to sew a bit, mainly during the winter months when indoors more. I make my own soft furnishings.

I also like military history, and of course, CATS!

I'm into Guns and Gun clubs.
Wilderness Survival
Kick Boxing
And chemistry sets ...
Some of my neighbours think I'm weird, and I think they have bugged my telephone too

Terry 07-11-2006, 03:20 PM Yes i heard about that Howie on Saturday,through the group,sounds great.I think it will transform that area completly.I once had a look round The Boat Museum at Ellesmere Port & it facinated me.Is there a lot of support out there for this project.

I'd like to see it happen but I think a lot of people have concerns about its impact upon the Pier Head and the north docks. See the Canal Link thread here (http://www.yoliverpool.com/forum/showthread.php?t=262).
What interests me and hobbies?
1) Got to be Liverpool past, present and future.
2) My mini car.
3) The net and PC online gaming plus I dabble in a bit PS Portable.
4) Listening to Pink Floyd and Aussie Pink Floyd.
5) Running and keeping fit.

I love cats too, although I don't have one at the moment ( I've got a rescue dog.) I try to donate food as often as I can to The Boote Home for cats in Elm Vale.
Also I feed a group of feral cats every day. I've rescued several stray cats in the past. :)
I love all animals.

Sue and I are very disappointed that we did not get to experience your Kareoke talents on Saturday! May be next time you will treat us to a song or two? What are your favourite songs???
Other than a bit of Kareoke on the quiet, I love camping, mainly in the Lake District. I enjoy quizzes, local history and all the girly things like shopping, getting my nails done, St.Tropezing, and the usual - socialising, eating out and drinking (but not nearly as much as Bazzacat!!!).:wynar:
Oh I love George Michael, I'm going to see him in Dublin in Dec!!:celb (23):
Terry 07-11-2006, 06:19 PM I rung up Broom House myself last Friday to offer my services voluntarily,but they wern't interested until i moved to Liverpool,yet i only live 50 mins journey away!

Have you seen http://www.penninewaterways.co.uk/
It is a site about the Canal's of the South Pennines and is a really good site!
Anyhoos, I have some quirky interests...
-->Streetlighting (yes honestly!), I just love a good MRL6 in the morning!
--> Photo taking (especially streetscenes of Liverpool and Wirral)
--> Going around the city on a bus with a saveaway ticket.
All those are connected too! Thats good. Ih, I also like reading up on the history of the area too!
