Nice!Hobbies I have are learning VFX and doing VFX for independent films and series when I can. I do alot of drawing when I can so I do class that as a hobbies as well and at the moment upgrading all my classic 80's & 90's anime to blu ray when possible
I want to get back into drawing
Cool what animation cells do you have by the way?
I have some Akira ones...
Also He-man, Mysterious Cities of Gold, Scooby Do, TMNT, Pink Panther, Ewoks, Real Ghostbusters, I think Thundercats too, and some others, would have to dig out.
Ulysses 31 has always alluded me unfortunately.
Trap door needed 👍🏼

The times I wish I'd bought one of the Limited Edition painted cells from Warner Bros store of Scooby Doo, I hadn't long bought the house and had little money spare and £500 in late 90s was a lot to spend
Scooby doo was my favourite cartoon, was so annoyed one day when my mum said we gotta go to get hair cut and I had to miss it
when I got my brothers old Ferguson B/W TV before my dad would buy VHS machine I connected wire to the headphone socket to input on my Dansette tape recorder and recorded the audio from a few Scooby Doo shows so I could listen to it when I go bed, having watched the episode at time when I was listening only I could picture it all in my mind but you also hear so much more when not processing the picture as well, I started to really take note of the cool background music which has quite a following online, was brilliant listening to it, wouldn't work for Pink Panther though
Ones I remember listening too was
The Headless Horseman
Spirits Of 76
The Tar Monster
One I wanted to record audio of was That's Snow Ghost as I had the discs for my Viewmaster which has pictures of that Episode but never got a chance to

I have had some nice cells in hand at the toy shows etc over the years but held off as one collection too much for me .. plus cost . But I did see some nice stuff as was collecting toys 25 years ago when it was not so popular ..
and a guy near me he has had a shop for years he always picked up good stuff, he had some transformer cells that was nice, I was lucky enough by pure chance to meet hasbro /kenner Europe toy designer .. he personally designed the European transformer 3rd generation toy line . He had a load of Japanese only toy lines in his possession. Along with pre production 1st cuts of toys and never released toys . 12” plastic American wrestlers..hulk ,ultimate warrior etc .. never made it into mass production..
crazy thing is —- His passion Bakelite valve radios.
I left the wrestlers - he sold on eBay for £2k each figure

Cycling and beer after a twenty year hiatus. Ok, maybe not the beer!
So I just started brewing my own beer again !!! Been many many years and thank to @pooman2084 I have the correct kegs now , Something i didnt have before.
Just done my first one and gassed with proper pub C02 (Nightmare to get hold of !) :-
And I fairly happy with it :-
Only thing is pouring it it very very frothy at the minute but I think it needs to settle and I need to open the tap fully ! But all in all tastes very very nice. I have to take wife work so only having this bit , Honest !
@Lurch666 & @ataridude74 Bring your Jug Lurch next time you both come over ! Anyone welcome !

Looks bloody delicious …
So easy with the right kit , You can have it brewed and ready in like 14 days ! Even with delivery of the kits if you say its £20 for the kit it works out at like 45p a pint ! Its a no brainer. Brewing kit cost me £25 - £30 I think. Have a look at https://brew2bottle.co.uk. Welcome to PM me if you need any info , Not as I am any type of expert !

Be Attitude For Gains!
The key is not to move the kegs or if you do give them a few good hours to settle.
The kegs should keep pressure now so you only really need the gas to pump out a lot of beer. For the odd pint what is in there is fine and it will still be fermenting the last sugars for a few weeks so will naturally increase carbonation. If you’re not careful it will over carbonate and be too fizzy.
Looks nice and clear though so you’ve avoided contamination, the enemy of every brewer. Well done!
