That is not something I would do.
Has not happened to me in 1200 hours of flying
I wouldn't care about that.. if it's my time I'll go not before... and I have to admit to being a little bit of a hedonist, and adventurous
repairing old books ?.. now that is a skill indeed....
have you tried flying Drones yetRadio Control flying...have stuck my toe into it several times,
but didn't have adequate training nor the money to afford
the hobby, unfortunately....
It’s not a big deal, mostly paste and paper.repairing old books ?.. now that is a skill indeed....
That is a wonderful hobby! If you ever take photos, feel free to share here.
That's another hobby I forgot to mention - collecting old books. Did you have to take classes to learn how to repair them? I have enough old books that would keep me busy for awhile.
That's an interesting hobby! Never thought of it as a hobby. I guess you would probably own your own plane then?
If you like being a clown or magician, have you thought of going to children's hospitals and entertaining them? When I used to work at a children's hospital, we would have clowns come and perform. The kids loved them! Just a thought.I'd love to be a professional magician. Not necessarily as big as David Copperfield or Penn and Teller
but I'd love to maybe travel to grade schools and perform for the children there. That or being a clown
seems like it would be a fun vocation but circuses of today just aren't what they once were.
I have a few photos of birds in my area on my profile.
I once played 3 holes of golf. I was 19 over par so decided to retire to the 19th holeI have more than one interest and hobby...problem is finding the time to do them all! I love hobbies!
Lately, I've wanted to learn to golf. There's a country club in my area that offers golf, and it's expensive but the picture of Bob Hope golfing and living to a ripe old age has always enticed my interest. You know...all that walking on beautifully cut grass...they keep calling, but the pandemic has kept me confined. I'm hoping in the future, when things get back to normal (HAH!) I might attempt it.
I have a stamp collection I want to get back into...started it when I was a kid. Received gifts from older family members and compiled some books.
I have a coin collection I want to get back into...began collecting pennies, then nickels, dimes, quarters, and a few older coins. Have to sift through them to see if there are any gems before releasing them back to the bank.
I'd like to compose more music. I have composed mostly for my benefit. It's a problem solving activity yet artistic at the same time.
Once I finish my dissertation, I will have more time to do all of the above! I'm in the middle of writing another 25,000 words to get close to finishing it.
BTW, SF has become a new hobby, and I enjoy scrolling down all the interesting threads. So I thank you all for it!
one of my passions is very old books..I spend a lot of time in bookshops where some books are so old we're only allowed to touch them wearing white gloves ... many have been very carefully repaired and restored, and I'm led to understand it's a real skill
I knew an octogenarian years ago who would collect old books and then rewrite them to publish them (because of no copyright problems). So he would bring back to life topics or books that were practically "extinct."
