Time on my own!

I need to plan some time to myself. Short and long (so an hour to 24 hrs I guess).

What can I do? I’ve got out of the habit of doing anything nice. I don’t like shopping, do like most other things!

Cinema. I love going to the cinema on my own.
Swimming is nice, as is running or walking.
Exploring the local area / further afield. Wandering round different places, stopping for tea & cake / a drink, at your own pace. Can't beat it.

Browsing round the shops and a nice lunch on my own, in the cafe by the river

Exercise
Walking
Reading
Going out for tea/coffee
Meeting friends
Going somewhere new that you’ve never been to

Some arty crafty session (such as pottery painting).
Exercise (if I had an hour I'd probably do an exercise dvd or run, then I'd have time for a shower afterwards. If I had longer I'd go swimming, maybe a climbing wall, horse riding?!)
Explore somewhere a little further afield.

Will the hours be random or could they be scheduled somewhat, so eg every Wednesday morning at 10 is time for your wood turning class donchaknow, the last Friday of the month is the gin tasting club and the second Sunday of the month is a book club?

I'd go to the library and get a stack of books. Then go to a coffee shop and read there.

Aha, lots of ideas! Thanks. I will get plotting.
Don’t have time for a weekly comitment, sadly.
