Besides racing pigeons, what other hobbies do other members enjoy? I have had a go at oil painting, i found it so relaxing. here is my first attempt at oil painting.

I've collected vinyl records since I was in my teens. Probably buy a couple records every week. I've around 10,000 now and the wife is sick of them filling up the house. There mainly 50s & 60s records.

I love art in any form Dev, to me the only person that can criticise any interpretation of art is the artist themselves.
However. I do draw the line at some modern artist like Tracy Emmin who are just taking the piss out of society.
The only way a "masterpiece" can be called so, is if the artist himself is happy with it.
Jmo.

The earliest 45s I have are UK Export 45s made in 1950 which is 3 years before 45s were available for sale in the UK. I've too many favourite artists to list, but Glenda Collins is one of my favourites.
