When the last displays fade out at the end of the season, what does everyone do to keep them occupied? Do you all have other hobbies or interests, other than skywatching? I spend most of my spare time crafting and have a room in my house converted into a studio. I do handcrafted greeting cards, clocks and a few different types of handmade gifts. I've also just started making kids hair accessories with ribbon. I do headbands, bobbles, bows, clips etc. I also plan to learn more about photography now that I've had some good practice What does everyone else get up to? Jo x

Hunting for all kinds of atmospheric phenomena, doing regular weather observations all over the year, photographing insects by daylight and some astronomic beauties by night.
