More than 2 can??

Astronomy (to keep my late nights busy)
- Current most expensive hobby

Photography (my old and still hobby from commercial shooting days)
- Previous expensive hobby. I just work with my models now.

Open water light tackle fishing (for getting together with old friends)
- Already have what i need

Playing my guitars with my old band mates (just the oldies)
- Have 3 expensive guitars

Collecting Toys (those that have appeal)
- Spawn Toys, Collectors edition Bumblebee, Ultraman, etc etc

Actually few more, but more serious ones are these. Why I do them??..

Hard to let go when you can still do them!
My wife never complained about how much time, effort & money I spent on my Astronomy hobby!................suddenly I met her!!!

hmm, why not?
Like i have alot of hobbies like...

Astronomy,
playing computer games,
listening to my favourite CD piece,
making new friends? lol i treat this as a hobby too.
karaoke,
watching movies
Diving,
riding up north to thailand...

at different stages of your life you will think of doing different things, trying out different fields.
At the moment your circle is still small but when you step out to the society, more options open up for you.
Who knows, rock climbing might be your hobby and you can lug a small scope up in the cliffs and ob from places no one has ever been.

hahaha
enjoy!

Nice...I agree with you shirox,...things change and influences change sparking new interests!
Diving was a hobby...no more kaki also no more time.
I didn't mention the only hobby I have that will stick with me till then end.

Having a family..lol! That's one that takes up everytime..lol!

@Jumming
Violin is nice. Always admire those who can pick these instruments up! Wish I stuck with the Alto Sax!
