I like to to get all of my cleaning done first, relax with a cuppa and then watch Netflix, usually find a good series to watch

Love netflix and walking our big energetic dog in the park

Spare hours are rare between childcare and attempting to keep the house clutter from taking over but if the weather is good I will be in the garden trying to take control out there.

If it is too cold, wet, windy, I like to sew while listening to a podcast.

I have started to do the diamond art paintings. They are so relaxing and really good for mental health.
A bit fiddly at times but still pleasurable.

I love baking savory and sweet

I like to spend time in the garden, pottering or relaxing

In my free time at present I am busy making Jewellery, mostly bracelets using semi precious stones which I will then donate to the local Salvation Army shop. They will be able to charge more for them than if I just give the beads. I always support the Salvation Army as they go out of their way to support those who need it most and are always one of the first on the scene when disasters occur.

I like to do a little bit of gardening everyday & enjoy watching property shows on tv

When it is too wet for dog walking or gardening, I like entering competitions, doing surveys and reading.

Something I find enjoyable such as reading or playing piano - relaxing and good for personal wellbeing.

Reading is my all time go too, I buy secondhand in charity shops or online so not to expensive. The library too, of course. Second is entering competitions, which I have done since the 80s. Much harder these days to win though as so many people do the same. Then walking though I slipped and broke my ankle so that is on hold at the moment.

I love reading and always have a book on the go.
I also enjoy entering competitions - ever the optimist!

I love spending my free time singing. my husband writes and records songs. I also love doing cryptic crosswords

I used to be a teacher of Modern Foreign Languages in the UK.
I am now retired but make an effort to keep up my language skills as it keeps my brain in working order.
I don't think about free time as such but like to keep busy using my languages.This morning I have translated a letter from English into French for a close friend of mine.
I like reading,writing,doing competitions and researching things of interest on the internet.
I like walking but it is too hot for that activity until late evening or early morning so a bit restricted on this one till it cools off.
I look after a group of feral cats who live in the field at the back of my house which keeps me busy with feeding and watering.
I would love to come back to the UK to see friends but there are too many virus cases for me to feel safe.
I am 72, an asthmatic and I have had a recent breast cancer operation so UK is not the place for me to be at the moment.
All the best to all Gransnetters and keep safe and well.

I love reading, entering competitions, pottering about, going for walks... I'm never bored!

I enjoy gaming or watching telly

Waling each morning, then gardening and (lately) enjoying the sunshine!

When I'm not working or taking on extra shifts, besides also doing two voluntary jobs I have many things I like to do - socialising with friends and family, reading, crosswords, entering online competitions, card making, crochet, watching the odd bit of telly, sear hung out bargains at charity shops, visiting the coast, walking, a bit of ebay selling, decluttering... Then there's also the things that have to be done - housework, laundry, gardening. Then sometimes I like to do nothing, just relax and recharge my batteries or even have an afternoon nap!

I love attending pub or charity quizzes so watch a lot of tv quiz programs for revision and I spend a lot of time caring for my garden. I'm also a member of various online survey sites and like to keep up with the news on a regular basis during the day.

We love walking the dogs, having afternoon tea, playing with grandkids, trips to new places to explore....

If I have an hour or so to spare I like to practise Yoga Nidra. Absolutely wonderful.

I love to read, cook and knit for the family.

Love to do some yoga and go out for a bike ride enjoying our beautiful countryside

I like to head out in the sunshine on my bike or if the weather is bad it's nice to curl up with a book.

Lots of interests. Cooking, walking, reading, genealogy, music, dancing, travel - problem is how to fit them all in. Every day has cooking/music/reading.
