wow that's a nice tank. I have a freshwater tank myself, but no where near as impressive!

I play World of Warcraft with the other 12million geeks hehe

Power kiting when the weather is nice, nothing quite like being 20 foot in the air with a board strapped to your feet. Also darts, pool, swimming and track days with real cars.

RC cars clean me out, so there's not much scope for anything else! I do the occasional track day where me and my dad share his Caterham. Plus all the usual crap - Xbox, pubs, getting cheesed off with women etc...:D

Real cars - modding, meets/events/shows, track days, maintaining, prepping race cars, etc I help run an owners club too.

Drinking and messing around, at uni so pretty self explanitory

Slowly getting into push bikes too, MTB'ing

I like most things that give an adrenaline rush to be honest!

Karting - which my friend Chris always beats me at, and the last time my brother came Karting he also beat me. I tried to make the excuse that the Kart was faulty but really it was the fastest Kart on the track but im just rubbish.
Golf - which i never really play but just thought id put it on my list to sound more interesting.
Drives in my real car
Squash - which my friend Jay always beats me at.
Tennis - which my brother AKA Hulk always beats me at.
Gaming - im really sad and still play computer games at 30!
Skiing - I once had a race with my brothers friend and lost just like i lose at everything.

Possibly. They should be bedded in quite nicely for Worksop then. How grippy is the surface at Chatherton (or whatever its called)?

Not sure if this counts but apart from RC i spend all my time runing my club indoors and outside which does not leave me much time or energy for much else.

This week was very bad for me and toped of at the end of the evening buy myself and my kids having to wait in the car park for nearly 45 mins on our own as every body else had gone home for one of our younger drivers to be picked up.

Rant over i play darts as well very badly i must say but love the fact i just show up and play.

Motor racing, but mostly the technical stuff as I don't race, and mountain biking. That's where my name comes from, as I am always last up the hills! Worth it though, because I am usually first down them - brakes are for the mentally weak!!

You lying bastard :p

Unless by slowly, you mean buying a new one and letting it gather dust in your garage? :D

Me personally I like to spend my spare time waving at old people whilst I drive past and guessing wether they will wave back or not. That and looking at photo's of Gemma Atkinson on the internet. . . .
