    I like doing coloured pencil portraits of animals, this is one. I enjoy art a lot but spend more time writing stories for children. I just need to stop sitting and move around a lot more though :-)

    Mostly for me itโ€™s gardening, reading and gaming(PS5, Xbox Series X or Switch).

    I do spend the majority of my time gardening and researching new plants I want to get etc my favourite are evergreens and climbing plants, got quite large front and back garden so lots of room for plants, Recently bought a lovely furniture set for the garden which will see a lot of use next year when weather improves so until then it will be staying under a weather proof cover

    I'm a gamer (PC, PS5, Switch Lite, Xbox series X) mostly RPG games. Then gardening when I'm able to, trying to make any local wildlife my friend (my friends call me a Disney Princess), painting Warhammer minis and SFX makeup.

    There's a lot of talent in this community, I love to see what everyone gets up to. ๐Ÿ’œ

    I love travelling and anything weird, anomalous or mysterious. If I can combine that with travel all the better!

    If you like RPGs(also my absolute favourite genre) you must buy Final Fantasy Pixel Remastered on Switch!!! If you have the Oled switch your in for an absolute treat

    I actually won my Switch @Luchia, it's only a Switch Lite, but I've been enjoying some Animal Crossing before my shifts start. Nice and chilled. The Oleds look beautiful though!

    Hi Sharebear, I did it for someone who wanted to commission me to do it for a gift. I explained that as I have MS and never know whether I'll be OK or not I couldn't charge him, as I couldn't know whether I could finish it in time at all. In the end he brought me lots of photos of the dogs and I did finish it in time and he loved it. I still didn't charge him, but he was a workman and he did some work I needed instead :-)

    The Oled screen is quite impressive, they did add a faster chip to the Oled models but to be fair it only makes them loads games etc a few seconds faster than older models, Another good game is Bravely Default 2 if you like RPGs, I havenโ€™t played AC in months so Iโ€™ll have to get back into it, itโ€™s fun but I felt it was a bit lacking compared to the older games

    I love gardening when the weather allows me to. Having moved into my new house at the start of the year I had quite a task ahead of me. I did have some help, which I was grateful for. I did grow some of my own from seed and for me that was the first time I'd ever did that. I don't have a greenhouse or cold frame so it was rather tiresome bring them in every evening.

    I also love lego and the vehicles are my all time favourite. I've done several including the camper van and the Porsche 911, which my daughter bought me for Christmas one year. I've made a few hints at what I'd love and I don't know if she's taken the hint for Xmas this year ๐Ÿ˜‚she always spoils me so I'm hoping she will.

    I do sometimes play on my daughter's PS5 and also her Nintendo switch. One of these days I may treat myself to a PS5.

    Ohhhh, maybe I should make a new gaming discussion? So we can all have a good geek out. ๐Ÿ˜Š

    We'll all be expecting lots of Lego photos from you after Xmas then Poppy. Hopefully your daughter takes the many subtle hints. ๐Ÿ˜†
