      I have a number of different hobbies and activities in which I participate. These include JuJitsu and Aikido, Dancing, Hill walking and going to the gym. I also like to spend time with my grand children and watching football with my son. I also enjoy going to the theatre or watching bands. I am also an avid reader – I particularly enjoy the escapism of being immersed in some good adventure.

      At the moment I like to run, just 5km a few times a week. I find this helps me clear my head, reflect on the week just gone, and its keep me fit.

      I like to cross stitch, play video games and go out for walks or runs in the local country park. I also love board games and tabletop games, including Dungeons & Dragons. Nerd and proud over here 🙂

      I read and do puzzles like crosswords but I also do martial arts which I love. I like trying and learning new things and I am always on the look out for new experiences. The other day I did a circus silks workshop. It was hard but lots of fun.

      I live in Scotland, so enjoy getting out in the countryside and going on nice walks – not so much into hill walking yet! I also love cooking, I got an air fryer recently so have been trying out all sorts of new recipes.

      I am generally a crafty person – I’m not great at ‘art’, but I love coming up with an idea and trying to make it. I’ve recently been trying punch needle, and went to a willow weaving glass a few weeks ago! I also enjoy walking and hiking, just taking in nature and listening to music or the birds as you walk.

      I love food, so I am always in the kitchen coming up with some concoctions. I like to bake as well if I have lots of free time. I make a lot of vegan cakes! And because I eat a lot (haha), I also really enjoy burning off some energy at the gym and do crossfit. My favourite class, which I never miss and always makes me feel great is Olympic lifting.

      I love spending time in nature and with my family. I love walking and cooking – and eating food! I like creating art and crafty things, learning new things, languages and travelling. I also like to sit down and watch TV sometimes!

      I go for a swim in one of the swimming pools, go for a walk or watch something nice on TV eg Master Chef, death in paradise, listening to music and shopping.
