Impulse buys from Aldi that have been sitting in that cupboard for years. So, I’m summary, that would be a shite hobby. Get into sexy Manga cartoons and wanking. Which kits?

Buy the kit, build the thing and the missus will either take pity and shag you or...... she'll never be able to take you seriously again and kick you out.

I've had the urge to buy an airfix WW2 model plane kit today and even watched videos showing tips on gluing and painting them......is this a mid life crisis, a cry for help or a legitimate hobby for a semi retired 42yo?! Do you have any other (sensible) hobbies you'd recommend? I'd a fair amount of them when I was younger, tho my painting skills were pretty shitey. Go for it, probably better than golf or snooker.
