Ok so it well known that we all have big DVD and CD collections (some more than others Comp) but do you collect or desire anything else?
I have been interested in 60s and 70s furniture for years but could only dream about buying any (excluding two stupidly expensive modern 2 seater sofas) however this weekend i bought all be it a modest purchase a 1970s chair to start me off. I also have been looking at buying Dansette portable record player's i love the different styles of these especially the bright red 60s models.

I have a large passion for books and one for writing, which are influenced by movies and music, tying in with my other hobbies. My work can be seen on my myspace page.

GADGE! Dude that is a pretty cool collection! Never known any one to collect consoles before. Do you even have every version of the Game Boy? As for me i like skateboarding although i havn't done it for 7 weeks due to breaking my collarbone doing it (see film making section for a video about this! to see how gross it looks) I also love photography, although i don't do it much. I've done wedding photography, and family get togethers. And i do it when i go on holidays and stuff, some of my stuff is on a deviant art profile, but i don't really like that website much, bit hard to use. And then film-making which is obvious, also love making music videos. Ohter hobbies include video games, well pretty much just nintendo these days, love my Wii and DS.

like bigboyjim i have a lot of love for books and writing, as chuck palahniuk once said, well.. something like "you can get away with a lot when writing" and its just another form of story telling like film isnt it.
Look at the short story guts which had people fainting. Writing is a personal and very powerful thing.

Badminton - play once a week with my dad.
Swimming - Do a couple of times after work then hit the steam rooms and jacuzzi to wind down. Perfect to get the stress of work out of the system.
Other than that, all my spare time is spent flat hunting.

Like a few of you writing is a big passion of mine.
Also in to lots of sports other than football mostly Lacrosse, golf, skiing and Athletics.
Stopped playing Lacrosse now but my Aunt is a really good player so I go and watch her sometimes.
Also Theatre, mostly new writing but I saw a really good production of The Rose Tattoo at the national last week by Tennessee Williams. Zoe Wanamaker, famous for that rubbish my family sitcom, was truly amazing in it.
My other past time includes trying to hang on to a girlfriend I love while at the same time convincing her that marriage/children/going traveling is not something we should be thinking about.
Got a laptop a few months ago so new interests include playing Football Manager 07 all night and writing on Shane Meadows forum.
