Other People's Hobbies You Couldn't Live With

The woman on Gogglebox who knits all the time would drive me crazy. Wherever you look there's awful, old-fashioned, out-dated knitted stuff. What looks like multiple multi-coloured blankets covering the sofa and chair and soppy little doily things on the table - I think even the socks she wears are hand-knitted. The place looks like a jumble sale.

What hobbies would drive you nuts?

Golfers can be a bit of a pain. Why do they practice their golf swings in the most inappropriate places? Down the back of an aircraft, in the living room, waiting to cross the road in large cities. They seem to be addicted to that.

Better practicing their swing than fiddling with their balls I say.

Our bare walls only have things which mean a lot hanging on them, mostly family stuff like paintings, drawings or embroideries. And some handmade plates commemorating various births and marriages in the family.
As for wallpaper, no way.
Haven’t had houseplants for maybe 15 years, when we started having extended periods away from home. They just became a nuisance so I got rid and really don’t miss them.
I’m glad yours were a comfort for you pasta.

Golfers probably have more excuse than all sportsmen put together for not playing well. I can assure you folks that after a near lifetime involved in golf, I've heard them all!

I have a few hand made blankets ( I made them to go with the rest of the decor) which are stored rolled up in a box unit when not being used. Paintings on the wall, mostly large canvasses, unframed. A patchwork bedspread in the spare room, and a couple of embroidered cushions in there too. I tend to rotate pieces so never have too much crafted stuff out at one time
