What group hobbies do you do?

[huypyhb]

DC are now at school and it feels like the right time to both widen my social circle and do a bit more with my spare time. I've never really done any group hobbies other than running which I currently do once a week. I quite like hiking (but no time for that at the moment and live in London), reading. Never been into gardening, crafts or music and still work full time - would love to get ideas and inspirations about what other people do.

Choir, Am Dram and Improv are all good social hobbies.

Or a team sport.

Pilates and ladies cricket. Love both

Choir. Only joined in Sept and love it.

Cycling with a cycling club.

Yoga, Japanese study group, board games meet up, book club. I’ve tried a few over the years, usually lots of fun and they don’t mind how often or not you can make it!

Scout leader. Although you might argue its a punishment not a relaxing activity

Orienteering

I wish I was musical because it sounds like such a fun way of spending time but am really really tone deaf

Yoga and Golf

Clubbercise, tennis, salsa, community choir (you don’t have to be able to sing well at mine - the good voices will drown you out)

I did pole dancing for a while and that was a good laugh. WI is also very popular

I have been in choirs.

Currently a hiking group and I’m in a gaming clan.

Book club, yoga classes, dance classes, pub quiz with friends, I have also been on various committees for my DCs activities at different times. I do conservation work in a local nature reserve from time to time too.

Guide/ Brownie leader & Brass band. Love both.

I often hike but prefer to be solo/pair. Occasionally join the bucks leaders hiking group.

WI and sewing group. I’m also on the committee of our local food festival.

What is the WI like? Also does anyone have any tips on finding a book club? Would be fab to join one but not sure where you can find them

I tried a WI group once, I thought it was very dull and cliquey although there are loads of different groups near me and I've only been to one.

Try a local bookshop, the independent near me has one, so does the Waterstones branch.

I misread that as “Pirates and ladies cricket”. Am disappointed now. 😆

@Catsmere wouldn't that be something?!

Animal Rights activism.
