Dialects are FASCINATING. I can recommend some books on them if you're interested? Lots of dialects are also very under-researched. It'd be my dream to go round all different places just chatting and recording dialects haha.

I look forward to reading your story. I love that thread. I can't read it at night because I can't suppress my laughter!I need to hightail it back to the dating horror stories thread; once dated a guy who threw a tantrum when we did a jigsaw at the pub because it was 'too hard'.
I like this one too, so many people have similar hobbies. If only we all knew each other, and there were no gathering restrictions...
I don't think I have a hobby.
Does tattle count?
I enjoy cooking and baking, maybe this counted as hobby?

I studied Linguistics at university and did a whole module on the dialects of the British Isles, it was so interesting!
Same, my BA was in Linguistics. I found the dialects modules interesting but I suck at phonetics
I would love to learn another language. The company I worked for nearly 27 years went into administration during lockdown so perhaps I should motivate myself to do it as I have a lot of time on my hands now 
I will certainly think about it

what a great attitude!! What language(s) are you interested in? 
Twins due at the end of February, so it's eating really. 
Thank you for your interest. I have minor links to Sweden so have always wanted to learn swedishI'm sorry to hear that, but it's great that you are taking a positive from it!
or perhaps German.....or both depending on when a new job comes along. 
Thank you for your interest. I have minor links to Sweden so have always wanted to learn swedish
my dad is Swedish, so I grew up speaking it. I only have a limited knowledge of German, but I can understand quite a lot of written German thanks to knowing Swedish. You'll have to let me know how you get on or hit me up if you want some help 
(OT, but I'm so sad about Sweden's handling of Covid, it's the first year in a long time that I haven't been to visit friends and family there.)Okay thanks, that's good to know
Hopefully it isn't too long before you can visit again
Amazing. My husband says I should start and Etsy shop and sell my crochet blankets and cross stitch but I could never keep up to meet demand as I can imagine the blankets being in demand.
I am currently crocheting a blanket for a work friend who's baby boy is due in December and I have just started cross stitching Tigger from the new Disney cross stitch magazine. Have you seen this magazine? Its out every fortnight and you eventually make 4 Disney samplers. I am getting a subscription to this. Dh reckons it could work out expensive in the end which yeah he is right but when you weigh up how much aida, DMC or Anchor threads cost not to mention having to find patterns....the magazine will do for me
I struggle to find Beartrix Potter cross stitch kits. I have done a Peter Rabbit and Jemima Puddle Duck but would love a Miss Tiggy Winkle one to stitch
I write a lot of fiction, I love it and it's my biggest hobby/relaxant. I also love to bake. My goal this year is to make macarons. Pre-COVID I was an avid swimmer too (well I say avid swimmer, I sort of splashed around like a headless dog with a pool noodle) but my local pool closed! Gutted. I do really want to get into sewing as well, although think it'll be tricky with my cerebral palsy!

I love to write fiction. I am trying to write a screen play which is an idea i have had jumbling in my mind since I were 14. Me and my best friend used to write short stories and all sorts of fan fictions and other fiction whilst at school and college. I have around 15 floppy disks with our stuff on it and she has most printed out and stored away in a lever arch file. Xx

Mine was in wh smith and i had walked past it a dozen times. In my wh smith they have a random shelf unit next to the till. I asked the store assistant if she had seen it in stock and she pointed them out to me.....I was stood right next to them
Iβm learning to play with piano 
started 3 years ago, after wanting to play for most of my life (my parents couldnβt afford lessons for me) so after my dad had a life changing accident, my outlook on life changed (Life is too short) so I decided to try it. Itβs so much harder learning as an adult!!

I ride horses, don't have any of my own unfortunately , and lockdown meant the riding school I was going to had to close so I wasn't able to ride for about 6 months. I've only just started riding sort of regularly again which I'm so happy about (but my god am I unfit after 6 months off!)
Before lockdown I was taking japanese lessons too (I did a year of Japanese while I was at uni) but couldn't finish the course because of covid and all future courses have been cancelled until further notice
Bf and I were gonna plan a trip to Japan next year but covid has put that plan on hold due to finances/uncertainty with whats going on in the world

I rode horses when I was younger for around 8 years or so, and still catch myself missing it massively. One day I'd love to do it more frequently.I ride horses, don't have any of my own unfortunately

Japan really is fantastic - I spent a week split between Kyoto and Tokyo a few years ago, and they were the most memorable places I've ever visited. The food is delish (and so cheap over there) and the people are very kind and patient. Where do you plan to visit on your trip?
