Well here's a nice bit of randomness!!
Now, we all know that we share a common interest here....buses. However, i was thinking on the bus home from Romford earlier about what everyone else is interested in. So i'll start.
I like football and am a Tottenham Hotspur fan, so feel sorry for me!!! Also like to listen to a bit of rock, well, i say rock but i mean stuff like Nirvana, Slipknot, Machine Head, Foo Fighters and some lighter stuff like Muse, Stereophonics, The Kooks etc
Now it's your turn.....

I don't watch enough footy to follow anyone so that's that one.
Music wise my tastes are pretty varied. Slipknot, Marylin Manson and the Foo Fighters right down to some classic rock and the occasional random track - my iPod is full of em.
Other hobbies - I like computer games and watching the occasional film is also good. I also take to the Top Golf driving range up there at Chigwell - even have my own clubs ;D

We are allowed to have other hobbies? ;D Don't do football or computer games - far too confusing and too much to keep up to date - my little brain can never cope with this kind of things. Music-wise classical stuff all the way - can't stand the modern stuff. ;D ;D ;D

Was watching the Edinburgh Tattoo the other night and thoroughly enjoyed it!! ;D

I like football and along with Steve, I'm an Gooner or Arsenal fan if you wish. I play football when I can, though only muck abouts. Music wise, anything really except most R&B, can't stand some of that stuff. With me, its mostly rap and stuff from the 80's, especially Duran Duran ;D.

;D As for my hobbies... I'm into football as well (although I have to admit I haven't been 'into' it as much as I should be as of late - shame on me ) I support Manchester United and have done since I was little. Spurs? Arsenal? Eww ;D ;D Regarding music I tend to listen to Hip-hop and R&B a lot, some Drum & Bass way too much (in fact I'm listening to a D&B mix right now as I type this...) ;D, and some UK garage occasionally. My other hobbies include playing computer games and going out with mates. Up until last year I would have put cycling as one of my hobbies too. Never again. ;D ;D

Right here goes. I'm also a football fan...well if you can call watching Millwall football ;D although I'm also a fan of most sports, my TV is almost permanently tuned to Sky Sports Music wise, anything and everything, from Guns 'n' Roses & Skid Row to Michael Jackson I also try to get time to play computer games mainly on the PS3 or Wii. Puzzles (Sudoku, Logic Problems etc...) And finally drinking beer ;D ;D

I'm also into trains. I'm not a football fanatic, but if I had to pick a team to support, it would be Arsenal. I like going out to parties and clubs, watching films/DVDs and casually playing football.

Also - on the subject of taking things up since joining the buses - I never even considered golf until I started driving these chariots ;D

As well the London buses I am also very knowledgeable in most other public transport modes as I am also into NR trains and the London underground system. I have a wide knowledge base of most bus routes in the SE, SW and South Midlands areas due to me frequently going on day trips on the buses using the cheap day "Explorer" type tickets.
I am active on the "Tube Challenge" circuit and am a current provisional World Record holder for visiting all 269 London Underground stations in 17 hours 56 minutes and 11 seconds.
Aside from buses and trains my other interests are snooker (watch the major championships religiously and give the balls a bash every now and then). Although I do support my local Spurs, I only take a limited interest in football.
My music tastes vary, I like very little of the modern music scene (some songs every now and then get my vote such as Warwick Avenue by Duffy) but apart from that my radio is usually tuned into 102.2 Smooth FM or chilling out to traditional jazz via Jazz FM.
I think that is enough from me otherwise I am liable to keep going and going!
