Yes. Reminds me of my one day of paragliding - jumped of the White Horse of Uffington and flew solo into the valley below. Next to no training - we just did it. I landed on my backside in a huge patch of stinging nettles, only to be dragged into a fence... Was very cool, but never again :)

I also have a power-kite (not one as good as yours though), but I enjoy it even though I can`t catch as much air.

it would also be nearly impossible to sum up what I do in a single line/job description, it`s unwillingness to say what I do, it`s just that it defies regular Job descriptions.

perhaps: "Handyman" might be close to it?

I own my Lab and spend most of my time in here, I get clients with various problems, and I "sort" them out on a Contract basis :)
to me it`s not "Work" or a "Job" because it`s Fun and I totally enjoy it, the fact that I get Paid to do it is just a bonus :)

what do I do.... Almost Everything and Anything that seems like Fun or Interesting :)

Mostly, I find myself hitting people, or being hit...

If I'm not doing that I'll probably be at school or doing some Reiki/ psychic/ talking to dead people stuff!

Regards,

Mike

i make and drink lager and play far too many video games for far too long, i blame this on the NHS for not being able to find out what has been wrong with my hip for the past 18 months. soon as they fix it i will be, making larger drinking it playing far too many video games, and getting some more running done to combat my gut. :rolleyes:

Between eating and sleeping I usually spend my time finding a new hobby which I get really into then abandon when I get bored. At the moment its mushroom picking (edible mushrooms that is) So far I have succeed in not poisoning my flat mates which I guess is a bonus.
There is a very fine line between “hobby” and “mental illness.

I'm in college mondays and thursdays, then in work the rest of the week days as an electronics technician. I have access to a good range of equipment and used it for my microcontroller based firing system college project last year (I would never actually trust it enough to connect it to pyro, but was a nice experiment).
