How do you spend your evenings?

newquay the same as you if we are in. This time of year we may go out for a walk.
Otherwise sometimes the theatre, sometimes eat out, sometimes friends, sometimes children visit .
In the autumn i may go to evening classes

In the summer, if we get the occasional nice evening, I like to potter about in the garden. I could be out there until about 9 pm if its not cold or wet. I would maybe then watch about an hour of TV. Some evenings I spend quite a bit of time on my tablet or laptop, on the light nights I might do a few jobs in the house if I've been out and about. So depends on the weather/time if year. Oh, also have a friend I ring most evenings sometimes it's about half an hour.

With the summer here, we often go out for a walk after tea, or I will sit in the conservatory and read, listen to music or browse the iPad. We rarely watch TV much before nine o'clock - sometimes not at all. Then we complain about all the stuff we have cluttering up the hard drive waiting to be watched!

I do like to watch what I've recorded on the TV, I rarely watch live TV . I also like to read, knit, or listen to music. I generally will ring a friend in the evening or spend the evening with one of my daughters. I only have a few pots on a balcony so don't have a proper garden to tend but water them every night.

If we are in, we watch either current TV or something we've recorded after we've eaten dinner - usually 7.30 or so. When I say watch TV, we are often reading the papers/doing the crossword or talking.

We watch tv, read, or go for a walk, weather permitting. I often crochet but at present I have no wool, so here I am browsing Gransnet. ?

All sorts of things. Watch telly if interested. Listen to the radio. Read or potter in the garden if weather permits. Do some sewing/ craftwork. Attend various clubs or classes. Visit a friend. Go out with DH. Baby sit. Can't image just sitting all evening watching the box.

Well that's what I do! I can't pretend to do anything much more than that each evening. I've always been a marked lark ie the life and soul first thing in the morning but run out of steam by evening. Its a joke with family and friends that it's no use asking me on a night out! TV suits me fine.

During this time of year i am usually outside in the garden pottering and watering plants and greenhouse.
Sometime me and DH just sit with a cuppa and enjoy the evening sun and watch the birds using one of our three birdbaths and enjoy some of their antics.

Its the dark evenings i hate, i do go indoor bowling on a Friday evening and Whist on a Thursday evning but the rest of the week unless something special is happening it the sofa and the TV i'm afraid. o

jane are we twins?

I am very like Ginny. I do not really have a regular evening routine. I rarely watch tv, unless I am doing the ironing. In summer I may be in the garden, but all year I may be reading, or knitting or sewing or working on the computer or chatting with DH or go to an evening class. Like Jane I am a lark, so may well just have an early night (9.00pm)

I would have to feel ill or have an early flight the next day to be in bed by 9pm!

I think we need a larks club on GN. I was up at 5 this morning, answered emails, read the news online and had my meagre (banana and cup of tea) breakfast about 6am. I love the early morning feel of peace, quiet and just getting ready to start the day.
By 9pm I often go upstairs, get ready for bed then read in bed until my eyes start to close - usually before 10.30pm.

Any TV is recorded and watched when it suits - sometimes after lunch, sometimes early evening. That's the beauty of recording - you rule the TV schedule,not vice-versa.

DH is more of an owl and gets up after me and goes to bed later than me but as we now have separate rooms it doesn't affect either of us. Win-win!

I'm probably the same as most- some evenings DH is at Bowls and then I get TOTAL CONTROL of the TV and can watch various rubbish - if you like rubbish watch Odd Mom Out on Netflix - she's hilarious. Tonight if it stops raining I'm in Golf fun competition starting at 5.3o - we blunder round 9 holes and then have some supper together- DH is at a meeting.

walk/run my puppy
eat
put on some good old fashioned rock and roll and dance for
30 miutes or til i collapse
then read or watch tv

I usually potter around doing "stuff" in my flat. I'd be at a loss to explain exactly what, but it seems to take up a lot of my time.
Sometimes i'll find something to listen to on YouTube whilst I'm doing said stuff. I know how to live it up!

No TV but I waste as much time staring at my I pad as many of you spend watching the box. I listen to the radio, Radio 4 until The Archers when I switch off unless I want to listen to the concert on Radio 3.
I read, speak to family on phone or Messenger, go to gardening club or a concert, have a bath and go to bed very very early. My mornings are more interesting, I'm not an evening person.

My very guilty pleasure is a Coronation Street binge! (I know).

I don't watch much TV (I love gardening programs though) but once a week confess to having a good catch up on all the episodes I have missed.

Most evenings I go for a walk on the beach (with or without the little ones), I potter in the garden, do a bit of reading, sewing and listen to music.

Me too Gillybob! I record it and then when DH is out I settle down and watch a load of episodes back to back, fast forwarding through the commercial breaks!

Nowt wrong with Coronation Street - what's the matter with you gillybob? We can't all be spending our evenings doing Worthwhile Things...

Phewwww glad it's not just me then GillT57 . I tell myself that I will only watch two episodes and then before I know it I have watched all 5 ! Well at least you sometimes get a giggle at Corrie.

Oh well that's three of us now Ana

Four!

6.10pm British time I watch the Debate on France 24. Francois Picard keeps a good balance and as well as that is gorgeous. Tonight it's about Xi Jinping's China.
After that sometimes the Supervet. Then husband takes over usually a film, or poker.
When it's hot here, as today, I go out for a walk with our border collie at about 9pm our time.
