Like so many played football for about 20 years then had to pack in, to many injuries.
So I've recently got back into match fishing, out in the fresh air in all winds & weather .

Was 9 years a personal trainer too so try to keep myself in half decent shape when the body allows Watch a fair bit of horse racing too, enjoy following the form and that but very very rarely have a bet. Avid Leeds United supporter too for me sins

I'll second you with being a Leeds Fan too!! MoT!!

However my interests outside of the birds would have to be Classic Minis, although even that has taken a back seat for the last 5 or so years, increasing costs and having a young family certain things have to take priority!

Anthony tell your son that's something to be proud of.
I mostly do commercial fishing so carp, bream, tench & roach.
I used to do a lot of barbel fishing in the winter when my son was younger on the river Avon between Bristol & Bath.

Yes I play them Dave, but it's easier to listen to music on line. I sometimes upload songs to Youtube if the song isn't already there.
