I like my gardening but in the spring and autumn. Far too hot to be out there in the middle of summer.
I wish I had the room for a nice greenhouse so I could get out there in the winter as well.
 
# How to Find a Hobby That Doesn't Make You Look Like a Loser

Are you a middle aged man who is bored with your life? Do you feel like you have nothing to look forward to except work, bills and Netflix? Do you want to spice up your existence with a new hobby that doesn't make you look like a loser?

## Tip #1: Avoid anything that involves too much physical activity or risk

Let's face it, you're not as young as you used to be. Your joints are creaky, your muscles are sore and your stamina is low. You don't want to end up in the hospital or the morgue because you tried to do something that was too strenuous or dangerous for your body.

So avoid hobbies like skydiving, rock climbing, martial arts, extreme sports or anything that requires a lot of equipment or training. You'll only embarrass yourself and waste your money.

Instead, opt for hobbies that are more relaxing and low-impact, such as gardening, fishing, birdwatching, chess, photography or painting. These hobbies will keep your mind sharp and your spirit calm, without putting too much strain on your physique.

## Tip #2: Avoid anything that involves too much technology or social media

You may think that technology and social media are the best ways to stay connected and informed in this modern world. But trust me, they're not. They're actually the worst ways to spend your time and energy.

Technology and social media are addictive, distracting and stressful. They make you feel anxious, depressed and isolated. They expose you to fake news, cyberbullying and online scams. They also make you look like a loser who has no life outside of the internet.

So avoid hobbies like gaming, blogging, podcasting, vlogging or anything that requires a lot of screen time or online interaction. You'll only end up wasting your time and alienating your friends and family.

Instead, opt for hobbies that are more offline and real-life, such as reading, writing, cooking, woodworking, volunteering or learning a new skill. These hobbies will enrich your knowledge and creativity, without compromising your mental health or social life.

## Tip #3: Avoid anything that involves too much money or commitment

You may think that money and commitment are the keys to happiness and fulfillment. But trust me, they're not. They're actually the sources of stress and frustration.

Money and commitment are scarce and precious resources that you should use wisely and sparingly. You don't want to spend too much money or commit too much time on something that you may not enjoy or benefit from in the long run.

So avoid hobbies like collecting, traveling, golfing, sailing or anything that requires a lot of money or commitment. You'll only end up breaking your bank or burning yourself out.

Instead, opt for hobbies that are more affordable and flexible, such as hiking, biking, camping, yoga or meditation. These hobbies will improve your health and happiness without draining your wallet or schedule.

Beat me too it on meghan slagging , a past time of the middle aged man , not allowed to say what colour they are but we all know
 
Used to enjoy assembling Airfix planes when I was a kid and attach them to my bedroom ceiling with cotton. Kids of today would probably run a mile at the thought. Bet there’s a small army of middle aged men still making them. I’m not one but I might get one and give it another go.
