People are always posting about their/dh's etc mysterious hobbies on aibu, am I the only one who always wonders what they are? I seem to picture really exciting things when it's probably just train spotting or something (which I'm sure is exciting for some people!).

LARP = live action role play - NOT purvy at all! Depends on who and what, but can be anything from medieval reenactment to far future costume play (cosplay).
Table top gaming - basically any variation on story telling with dice (be careful assuming they mean Dungeons and Dragons - some serious snobbery/genre bashing goes on here!). My OH does this, but thinks LARPers are weird...
My hobbies are basically reading, walking, drinking wine and Papercraft.

Now I'm horseless as I can't afford one on maternity leave and it's killing me!

What about a hobby horse? Would that be a good budget alternative? Grin

Knitting, Crocheting, Sewing - designing my own unique items mostly. Hate doing something that has been done before by someone.
Baking and decorating cakes.
Pokemon Go has been a bit of obsession lately.
Orchids. Trying to mount few at the moment, but might have to repot them again. Confused

I would love to try and make bouquets as a hobby, I loved making my own bridal bouquet.

I also have 2 DC. No, I don't have enough time.
