I'm looking for new hobbies.

What do you like to do? Whether it's crochet or going out on this piss, I want to hear about it :)

I've done choir, am dram, martial arts in the past.

These days I do canoeing, kayaking and paddleboarding and associated volunteering. Most of all canoe polo. It's great fun, and less faff than river kayaking.

Regular ones are
House plant collection and care
Attempting garden care but health a bit iffy so some days easier than others
Tapestry
Jamming and pickling
Reading
Hair cutting - DDs hair regularly which is fun
Scrabble/Soduku/Meowdoku
Reading scientific and medical journals
Dog walking and trying to do a different one each day

Been through a stage of gold leafing, papier mache making, pottery, stone carving, interior decorating, jigsaws (get too hyperfixated on these though and lose whole days and they take up a lot of space), fossil hunting, glass cutting, mosaic making, orienteering, photography and metal detectoring. Oh and have a kayak and paddleboard in the shed...those are a seasonal ones.

DDs think I have AuDHD because I pick so many things up and then stop once I feel it has been mastered. It has been a ride!

are there any hobbies/activities that involve smashing stuff?
So many creative options, but sometimes I feel like I'd love to really let go and physically destroy things. This part of me would also love to do crazy rally driving.
