Learning the cello Apr 4, 2009

and music theory. I am only around grade 5, so I have a long way to go, but there's no hurry and it is a long term project anyway. Next goal: singing in a choir, when my children are a bit older and I have more freedom to go out.

what on earth is "sporting"? Apr 5, 2009

Sporting a red rose in your buttonhole? Sporting a jaunty Panama hat?

If we must have these Quick Polls, could we have an accompanying English translation please?

Theatrical combat Apr 5, 2009

Sword fighting, quarterstaff bouts, stunt work. If you see it in the movies, we do it/teach it.
Falling off scaffolding is best.
Reading and knitting, for when I need something less active.

Cross-stitching! Apr 6, 2009

Sleeping is definitely a good hobby... but mine are my cat Fluffy and cross-stitching (see photos on http://picasaweb.google.fr/Cilou1967).


I looooove cross-stitching too, it's so relaxing. You seem to do it a lot (nice pictures especially the Margaret Sherry Cats).
Love reading too. And Nordic walking in the woods near my house. Although lately I have so much work... no time for hobbies... not even sleeping.

Music Apr 6, 2009

Making music is a serious hobby for me and always has been. It takes up most of my spare time and I occasionally am paid for it. I play in several orchestras and try to fit in as much chamber music as I can. I also practice on my own (sometimes) and have lessons when I can. Recently I joined a choir which is a lot of fun.

Things I do, but do not consider to be hobbies as such: listening to music, reading, walking, watching films.

A mix Apr 6, 2009

althoug a husband, two kids, 23 and 21 but still kids for an italian point of view, a dog, two cats, house and garden leave me few time to relax, I love reading (at night!), having long walks with my dog, writing, knitting, sewing, beadworking. But the hobbies I find relaxing over all are drawing and embroidering.
