Weird hobbies of the World.

[Vespa]

I go open water swimming, much to the amusement of those around me given the water quality of the lakes these parts.

However, there are some pretty weird hobbies, like these folks who go to a hall with a big sword and chop the shit out of stuff.

Well open water swimming will leave you at best cold, wet and tired. At worst deaded by drowning or waterborne disease.

The sword thing means you can break shit. With swords!

I go for that one.

As a kid I used to build airfix kits, something I drifted away from when I was about 15 in the early 80's, but in 1990 which was the 50th anniversary of the battle of Britain, I thought it would be a bit of a laugh to build an airfix spitfire again, after that I just kept building stuff, and it's a hobby I still do to this day.

You're in good company, here is Rod Stewart's model railway that he built himself, it's stunningly good.

Nicely done, when I was a kid I never had the patience to paint them

All the ones above have been painted using an airbrush, it's how you can then add weathering effects by simply layering paint over darker colours, the panel lines on the Mustang above are a prime example of this.

Plus, actually being a decorator in real life means I'm no stranger to a bit of painting!
