Anyhow, back on topic.
My other hobbies include music production and recording, DJing in Nightclubs.
I used to build model aircraft and dream of one day learning to fly either fixed or rotary winged aircraft.
I would love to get my CPL and move my career that way, just have to figure out exactly how to do it. I have noticed there are a few pilots amongst us and i look forward to any advice you guys have for me, and before you say it i know its going to cost a fortune and maybe my left nut but i am starting to think that i really need to start chasing this dream.2003 V6 GXL, Mickey Thompson MTZ's, Safari Snorkel, ARB Winch Bar, OME Suspension 2" lift, GME TX3420Comment

My hobbies include bushwalking, video production and travel. Went to Europe last Christmas which was great. The cars, roads and traffic were a bit different to home though.

Well where do I start. My latest hobby is the Prado which of course includes 4wd'n and adding the endless list of accessories! The other hobbies include camping, fishing, road bikes (GSXR 750), mountain bike riding on the odd occasion. Radio control monster trucks, computers which prob wastes more time than all the others put together.! Would like to say photography but haven't been pursuing that interest as much as would like. Other hobbies have been water skiing, international and national travels and have done some hiking in Tas including Cradle Mountain to Lake St Clair on the Overland track and the Southwest track from Malelueca to Cockle Creek. Can definitely recommend either track. I've no doubt missed some, but you get the idea. Love the outdoors.

Hey there Justo,
What kind of monster trucks are you into - electric or nitro?
Got the boys a Traxxas E-Maxx, which is a lot of fun. They wanted a Revo, but I wouldn't have the time (not to mention lack of expertise) to deal with the extra work of a nitro. Besides, nitro would stop them using the truck in the backyard due to noise/neighbours.
I've modified the truck and upgraded plastic components to alloy everytime they break.
It's not hard to spend big dollars on these little buggers (as well as the monster trucks)...

Love fishing especially the deep sea variety. I like to do a couple of charters a year. I have always liked power boating and intend to get my own again one day when I get closer to the water again.
Since living in outer woop woop I have taken up home theatre as a hobby and it is a darn expensive hobby at that. Now into both hi def formats and love my new JVC HD1 projector.
Above is the comparison between my old Panasonic projector and my new JVC HD1 projector. The JVC is double the size and the image it produces is spectacular.Roll on the 2010 Pradopoint GTG

Fishing, camping, indoor cricket. The first two is where our new Prado comes in, should arrive late Sept.
Been lucky enough to travel most of Qld in my life with work and holidays, but have also been to Adelaide and Perth with Nationals for indoor cricket. Brisbane next week for a couple of games.
Travelled to Cape York 3 times by road and multiple times by sea and love the country up there. It is also some of the best 4WDing in the country. Last holiday went to the Gulf and followed the road up to Arnem Land when we ran out of time.
Fortunate to have a missus who comes from Weipa and loves the same lifestyle as me.
