      Hi Avril,
      I like hiking, swimming, sailing and dancing. In terms of watching sport I love figure skating but I can barely stay up on skates myself!

      Heya Avril,
      I do fencing (with the swords!), I juggle (balls and clubs) and I play GAA a bit in Paris, strange but true we have a cracking team here. I took up all these sports as an adult in college and I hated sports as a kid! I like it now theres no pressure, just doing it for fun and its a great way to relax and take your mind off work.
      Plus studies have shown that exercise is not just good for you body, but it improves your brain function and ability to learn new information!

      Hi Avril,

      I watch soccer, rugby, gaa and enjoy the saturday afternoon results shows (I do miss grandstand on a saturday).
      I also swim and play golf and pitch and putt and road cycle, having helped start up a new local cycling club. THe cycling is fantastic and gives a break from the hard thinking I do most of the time.

      hope you are enjoying all this!
