Other hobbies besides collecting militaria?,

[Troy Tempest]

Ralph,
I had one all boxed up in the closet. Had not been played with for probably 15 years.
I went looking for it last weekend, just after I got these new cars. My wife asked what
I was looking for. ------------ SHE SOLD IT LAST YEAR ON EBAY

Wow, that's harsh

I dont know if I posted what my hobbies were, but I cant remember so Here is what I like.

I like old Music on LP record.
I like 60's, 70's, 80's and early 90's music and on LP record. I dont like marching music or Punk but I like Blue-Grass and the such.

I think Records sound alot better then CD's, Vynl sounds more natural. The record collection and record player were my dads but I use it the most and I took a particular shine to Bluegrass. When I was very young we lived in america
I think my favorite record would be either Eric Clapton or my Eagles first eddition Hotel calafornia with poster...!

That's excellent, where do you get a needle for it?

I think I'll just stick to my cd's for now, even though I do have a few vinyl records that I've got purely for the aesthetic value

Something that I've recently started taking seriously enough to be able to call it a hobby is urban exploration, I only specifically go to derelict military sites though as they seem to be lacking the security that other abandoned places have suprisingly

Heres a few photographs from RAF Douglas Wood Bunker chain home radar station in Angus, this was my most recent trip
