All work and study and no play makes Deb very boring , so needing a sideline I thought Id like to sticky beak into other peoples worlds and see what hobbies / passions they have ( besides finches of course ).
So to get the ball rolling I have an assortment of finchies and grass parrots but my other playthings include tropical fish (used to breed them but no time now) , Sewing all manner of clothing and accessories for the grand kids and ten pin bowls . I also love a wonder around the local markets . Besides these I also enjoy a sitting on my bum doing absolutely nothing ..... OK your turn .
Oh if this post has been done to death already just chuck my post on the end of the other one and leave me to my ramblings...cheers all :D

I make jewellery, love to read, and my latest fad is playing Mahjongg on the computer, it is so addictive! I put on the headphones, turn up the music and can while away far too much time!
I also love going to markets but in the summer....too cold now.
I also knit baby hats for the local hospital for the premature and sick babies.
