Seems like a good chance to introduce myself 
I've been reading these forums for a while, usually as a result of a google search for something. Figured it was time I made an account and started to 'give back' a little.
So howdie all!
Hobbies for me have taken a bit of a back seat for now as I've just started a business on the side and am currently running it and doing my day job too -> not that much time left in the 24hrs for sleeping let alone playing
Before that (and hopefully after things settle down), I have been learning to fly a hang glider (I'd recommend this to all, it's an amasing rush), open circuit scuba diving (SSI / PADI AOW) and hanging out on the beach with my two dogs (a Golden Retriever and a Newfoundland)
I follow Dexter, Boston Legal, Stargate Atlantis and The Unit on TV, can enjoy a good multiplayer computer game occasionally, but never really enjoyed chess much
Trekking/Tramping/Hiking is nice with the dogs but otherwise doesn't do lots for me, I'm fairly fit but clearly have too short an attention span so start to get bored :/ I can certainly appreciate the appeal though, just that it's not really for me.
