All of us devote most of our lives to our dogs but when we do have a little free time for ourselves what type of hobbies or pastimes do you do or take part in.
Mine is cross stitch, now i know this might seem a strange one but it helps me to put my mind onto something else so here are a few of my completed pictures.

they are spot on Dawn you are a artist ;) i like your photos as well bulleye i went on a photography course but had to drop out for work that was a long time a go now but i would love to get back into it at some time. My hobbies are bird watching i have been all over looking for birds of pray and going around second hand shops and car boot sales to see wot i can find to do with dogs and to do my house up i just do in midlands now but at one time it was all over the UK on the much and making my dog collars well it started as a hoddie but is now becoming a bit more but that tacks up a lot of my spear time as some of the bigger ones can tack 30 odd hours to make Image i love working with wood and metal as well as i am a time severed steel fitter and i like to get thinks out of skips and make them in to something ells or to give them a new life i love making fire s rounds with old wood.
