What are your evening activities?

I know I'm being ignorant to those who work nights, shifts, are a student or unemployed but just wondering what most do in the evenings after work?

I've just got in from football and after I've had a shower and tea I for once have no will power to do the usual things I do, watch TV, a film, play on my Xbox.

Being a 'school night' I rarely go out other than play football four times a week.

I have a kid due in November so I guess I should really take advantage of the free time!

Get in from work, eat dinner while watching TV (currently West Wing), play on the computer for a bit (currently Football Manager) and then (if I'm very lucky) sex with the missus. Unfortunately she's very pregnant right now, so the last one is tricky

How pregnant??

I'm in the same boat

In the end watched a film and will probably play on the Xbox after

I didn't know that, congratulations mate. Make sure she breastfeeds, you will carry on getting lots of free time for atleast another 6-9 months

If I'm on a school night I don't do much in the evenings because I get home at after 8pm. So shower, quick browse of the net, family guy and bed.

When I'm off shift and not going out usually it's bath time with my son, put him to bed. Read some books together. Surf the net for a bit, tidy up the garden, read some books/magazines, family guy, bed. I used to play a lot of xbox but I've stopped gaming and I've noticed it's far easier to go to sleep and switch off than when I used to play games. I do a lot of my photo editing in the evenings as well. I don't do much in the evenings to help wind down.

Cheers bud. Noticed you're never online anymore, my interest in games in general has reduced dramatically over the past few years but I still play on the 360 a lot due to other things not really interesting me. Give me a new hobby and I would give it up but having a wife that games too is good.

Like I said though, all will change come November
