My call is VK2DLI and I have had my amateur licence since 1978 (way back when morse was a requirement)

I wonder if there are any other Amateurs on the forum

Your a funny fella aint ya
About a year ago I was addicted to online gaming on the PS3. But thinking of it now since starting this hobby I havent even turned the damn thing on.
Other than that, I used to go round to my mates place alot at cookamidgera.
We used to do all sorts of stupid things that involved cars. Bikes and booze. One of my favorite things was the bonnet sled. It was a bucket seat bolted to bonnet and dragged around the paddock on a long rope.
Imagination was our limmit

Gold prospecting is number one then 4x4 driving, Bush walking followed by Electronics it used to be Tennis (B grade player tried out for the Australian Team but just missed out on a place) but those days are long gone now and Fishing.

 

[dwt]

Kayak (6 meter Sea Kayak) fishing, fresh water and Ocean(not too far out - love Depot Beach.

Camping, the less facilities the more I like it. Love a 3-4 camp using the Kayak (Tallow Dam is my favourite spot up near fossicker Flat - 16km from dam).

Dancing (Rock 'n Roll and Rockabilly). Actually going to have a dance on Sat, my favourite band "The Flattrackers", Rockabilly band from Newcastle. Playing at the Matraville RSL Sydney. Any old rocker its a great night.

Food Cooking and eating

Keeping the girlfriend happy( I don't see this as an optional hobby)
