@Morttuus Something odd about beer drinking: if you do a lot of it, then it stops being a "hobby" and starts being a "problem". 

Right you are, my friend. But I have my beer taste under control, no fear. :)

Good Lord, I have tried to learn playing guitar 10 times, I guess. And I have always failed. I have another dream than guitar; I would love to purchase an original Hammond organ. Blues/hard rock is the style I would like to play with some band, nowadays.

Guitar, squash and drinking - though not necessarily in that order. Oh, and I used to have a bowling average of 185 but haven't hit the lanes for a couple of years now.

Chess I'd say is my favorite hobby.

Also enjoy walking, trying new restaurants, studying foreign languages and travel when I have the time and money.

Chess is rapidly becoming my favorite hobby. I've been playing off and one for over forty years, never studying all that much but the last weeks have been fun. It's an incredible game--the best there is.

In my spare time, I grade papers (sobs).

That sounded quite alright. I mostly play my Les Paul standard with a natural valve distortion. Preferably an old Marshall-stack.

Here's some of my guitar stuff: https://soundcloud.com/schnappaxe/men-hej-hej-pa-dig

Hey, that's some pretty good stuff. Sounds like you're all having a blast.

I'm an addict. I even moved to a warm climate to play year round. If it weren't for that damn "work" getting in my way, I would play every day.

About ten years ago, there was a stretch where I played 43 consecutive days.
