Hack's passion is his garden. He loves to be outside. He enjoys fisihing. He likes to do trash to treasure and like home improvement.
Hack is pretty much a * I love my home and family* kind of guy.

Pierre's hobbies are playing guitare, reading comic books, and playing games on computor. He also played volleyball every week since I met him 23 years ago, but had to stop a few years ago due to his shoulder injury from work.

Jack's hobbies are:
Drawing
Computer games
Building shelving units
Hasn't been doing any of these for quite a while now. Like Ellise's hubby, Jack is too pooped out from work to even enjoy his NASCAR races, he falls asleep within about 30 minutes once he sits down.

yard work......he loves it. watching the Atlanta Braves play baseball watching our sons play baseball building birdhouses watching TV hunting fishing Yard work is a new term for me, I am assuming it means cutting the lawn and that sort of thing. Our ds 17 does the lawns atm. DH does the gardening, I do some of the planning for it. DH has watched the Blue Jays once. He does follow the Cats in AFL, but only glimpses here and there. We have a hunting dog, but DH hasn't hunted for years, we still have all the equipment though. His hunting has included ducks, deer, foxes, rabbits, quail, kangaroos. He prefers sea fishing and had a spear as well, also diving gear, but hasn't done alot of that lately either. |

lol...sorry about that. Yes, yard work is taking care of the yard. We have a big one. My dh loves to plant trees and is always working on new flowerbeds and such. He built us a mini waterfall in the back, near the deck, so when we sit outside, we can hear the water running. Very relaxing.

David LOVES golf! He doesn't get to play that often since we're busy with the kids (soccer right now). He also has a 67 Cougar that he'd like to restore but that is on hold- it takes lots of $$$$! He also enjoys watching the Dallas Cowboys:) I love to "junk" - Hit garage sales, etc. and sometimes I drag him along, but he secretly loves it!

Alister loves: - tinkering with his old Land Rover (4wd), and going for drives with the 4wd club. - playing with 'gizmos' such as his GPS unit (including geocaching), the digital camera, his computer, etc. - WW2 planes, though not as much since his WW2 pilot friend died a couple years ago, as did his long-distance enthusiast mate from Britain - working on his website, www.sumnertoferrymead.co.nz - lots of good material there, if not the 'prettiest' of sites - photography - socialising with friends - playing with our cat Dixie, and laughing at her antics - watching rugby (Canterbury plus All Blacks) - gardening (sometimes, not as often as I'd like!) - wood turning, framing photos, building things (he built me a lovely spice rack last year) |

That was my husband when we first got married, moral of story, don't start working for the corporate world after that. I'm sure they would get along. DH always wanted a Landrover.

He loves our dog, and cats actually. He tips him up like a baby. Computers would be his favorite. And he does like making things with wood and metal, metal comes up more often when he fixes things. |

Alister tips Dixie upside down in his arms all the time, too! And rolls her over on the bed or floor. He's 'roughhoused' her so much (she's very tolerant) that now she sometimes loudly insists that we give her a good hard rubdown. None of that mamby pamby stroking - give her a good hard scrub!
Alister and your dh sound a lot alike. :-D
