So many threads have husbands / partners off doing their unidentified hobby. AIBU to ask what are these mysterious pursuits that our menfolk do?

Mine goes fishing...

@Nanna50

Mine has several hobbies. Golf, old cars (pre 1980s,) and playing the piano.

I also like the old cars and we go to rallies sometimes, and I play a musical instrument too - the guitar. I have no interest in golf. That's all his! 🏌🏽⛳

@simplyhaving

That's brave of you to admit - so much more identifying than most...

Also expensive, time consuming and utterly addictive - have failed to give up at least 4 times!

My DH does walking and cycling when he can!

EarlGreyOfTwinings · 20/06/2019 20:29

mine does running, martial arts, racing and the odd golf,
he thinks he's still skying and diving but seem to forget he hasn't had proper time for that in years blame the kids Grin

Cricket. I don't mind, the clubs round the corner and has a nice clubhouse so I don't mind sitting and watching on a sunny day as I can come and go as I please (and there's alcohol and food!)

Chess - in a serious way, not the odd game.

Yip. As far as hobbies go it’s quite sociable. You can drink gin in the sun with the kids and dog 😊
