Horse riding, absolutely love it. Apart from that all the usual, reading, cinema e.t.c.

I work full time have 2 kids, 2 dogs, too many cats - don't have time for much else.

Fave thing to do at present is CD. Sad I know, but I'm addicted.

Also enjoy camping, walking & spending time with my family.  :)

I enjoy riding my 16.2 ID x TB, Joshua, and looking after my other horse. I also collect horses apparently, and am off to see a pony for my daughter on friday :rolleyes: :D

I collect all things froggy. Ornaments, toys, jewellery, cards in fact anything with a frog element.
My bathroom, with all bathroom furniture froggy, has about 250 frog items in it. It is a very small bathroom so now the frogs are emigrating onto the landing. I have literally everything in frog form from bathroom mats to veggie peelers, all kept in the bathroom. Woe betide anyone who tried to use any of them.

I am now starting to collect ferretty things as well.

Well apart from trawling the block with the boy, I love to read read read (I don't have a TV!), I paint watercolours and I do a lot of creative stitching.  Spend a lot of time on the PC of course (when copper's asleep, as he doesn't approve!).  I also love my garden although much too cold just now.  Urrrr, I just read that back, I sound like a trainspotter!!  Not really guys :D

I am also an avid reader when the dog leaves me alone and have just read a book about the life of Iris Murdoch (also a film starring Kate Winslet) ohhh it was sooo sad. So if anybody wants it email me and i'll send it lol.
In fact if you have any good non-fiction books let me know and i'll swap you whatever you have!!

You know i walked the dog at around 9pm and i'm so nosey i look in people's living rooms (OMG i sound bad) and the amount of people you see tapping away on the PC is so funny.

Hi,
I don't have live frogs yet and can't have a pond 'cos of the grandkids. My partner has direct orders to purchase an African Bullfrog for me for Valentine's Day. I don't like flowers and boxes of choc's.

Hi D4wn

My friend has just got two albino frogs,  I personally am absolutely petrified of them:( seriously to the point if theres one in the garden I will not go out there.  Mind you it wouldn't do for us all to like the same things :).  I love pigs and I guess not everyone does.

Hi d4wn,
i have grandkid, our pond is a small one and we have a fence round it, so the kids and Toby cant get to it,

Hi Michelle,
I had an African Bullfrog Taddy 18yrs ago. I grew him up to a froglet in the house in a large tank. It took 2yrs for him to change. When he turned into a frog he was about 4inches long. I made a pond, sunk wirenetting and a wall, so he couldn't get out. A kid from up the street nicked him and ran him over with his bike. I know it sounds silly but I was gutted. I cried for weeks. When he came in the house he used to come up to you and beg for food.
I've waited all this time so I won't put my new Bully outside this time he'll stay in the house.
I do tend to have some odd likes/dislikes everybody thinks I'm weird but who cares.

I have a visiting Hedgehog who comes in the house. I de-flea her every so often so she doesn't pass anything on to my pets. When I pick her up she doesn't curl up she just looks around for her tea.
I also have a common toad that comes into our garden it comes to the kids and they dig worms for it.
We also have foxes and badgers that pass through our garden but they stay away from us.

I love reading and a good movie (horror usually). The kids and dogs take up most of my time and money but I do tend to redecorate every year and enjoy the garden in nice weather.

Nothing beats an early morning walk down the beach though :)

I love gardening, my youngest daughter and I go fencing and use a foil sometimes an epee, sailing mostly in the summer when the dogs come with us.  Other than that my work takes up most of my time during the week.  Lots of what I do is mainly worked round the doggies.  I would love there to be more hours in the day because I want to plant my own herb garden.  I also want to start making my own scented candles.  May try that whent he days get longer.

Apart from my dogs meeting up with my friends, but there again, they are all doggy people who have the same breed as me :d  So it looks as though dogs are my life, sad or what!

I enjoy reading, cooking and meeting up with my friends.  I am also learning how to drive at the moment and so the past 8 months have been busy with studying for my theory test and now I've got 7 more lessons until my final test - aaaggghhh!!

Once I've passed my test (please be first time) I intend to take up horse-riding again.  I had my own horse up until the age of 16 but gave it up when I discovered boys (why??) but would love to take it up again.  I live too far away from a stables to walk to and so once I'm mobile I'm really looking forward to taking it up again!!

I'm sure Glazby will enjoy it too!!

Apart from dogs its motorbikes for me!! Hubby has a 1500 cc cruiser and I love getting out with him on it..just riding or rallying Heaven!!
