I was brought up in a sport mad family. Football, cricket, golf, tennis, american football, you name it we had to watch it, play it or be bored I went to watch a Hundred cricket game at old trafford on saturday....it was the best cricket I've watched.....after being dragged to club games and test matches, the 100 was a welcome change. My partner fishes.....omg its boring to watch.....but very good for stress levels apparently. Golf has always bored me......watching it on tv is liking watching miles of sky.

My son has just got into chess....he's such a geek. I lose on purpose (honest) as its soooo slow

I get playing it is different, but as a kid being dragged around the north west to watch cricket every weekend was boring I know it becomes your life, I lost count of the number of times my mum threatened to move my dads bed to the club.....he used to do the wicket, help with the nets, work the bar, volunteer my mum to do teas, I was in the scoreboard...all boring..
