Do you have any that some of your friends and family find 'odd' or 'peculiar' ?

Yes. Then again, mine were more compulsions and addictions than hobbies, in retrospect.

That can't be good for their skin - unless you like it grey and a little dry.

Hobbies? Sadly not enough time for anything I could commit to on a regular basis - and my photographic fun is out as you've banned anything naughty from responses!

As for interests - many that my family find odd! From my music tastes to my love of films that aren't the usual 'chick flick', mainstream shite that they enjoy. Oh - and I'm a serious wine snob. Sorry - cant help it!

Well this stems from Mum asking what I'm gonna do with myself for 4 days on my own in Berlin (especially as this isn't my first visit and have done the usual touristy stuff).

When I told her that by way of research I had been looking up a cafe / shop / tattoo studio all done out in 1950's style and theme, I got

When I added I had been looking at a website called 'The Third Reich in ruins', I got

I started collecting recipe books from all over the world until I realised that there was no way I was ever really going to use them and also, I could get anything off the internet. My family think that was a bit odd...

Shoes (Stilettos and boots) are a fetish of mine but in a harmless way... I dont "use" them to dominate men - I just like collecting them and occasionally taking them out to a party...

When I loved in Brum I was involved in a similar charity and got a very similar response of total bewilderment as to just why anyone would do this sort of thing.

I have a friend heavily involved with this. His stories amuse me greatly, particularly his scrapes with the law. The pictures are always amazing.

Lots of people think my cycling is weird. People in my office find it odd that I would ride 14 miles each way to work out of choice. The days I run home, leave them very confused...

I have several friends who think it 'weird' that I enjoy reading books for recreational purposes. Especially when I reveal that some of the books I enjoy reading are non-fiction and don't have pictures. But then I think people who play golf are weird so I guess one person's 'weird' is another person's 'normal' lol.

I'm not sure whether to laugh at that, in case it's not a joke! There have been times I've opened up a hive, and the bees have been REALLY pissed off with me!

I guess camping in a tent in winter is what some may consider as odd.
