What is your favourite rainy weekend-day activity? Can't Post

It's damp and misty here today which got me wondering what people like to do when it's wet out. (Choose as many poll options as suits you.)

Reading? [In reply to] Can't Post

I voted for reading, but cruising the 'net might be more accurate these days.

I'm not sure if this counts as "gaming" [In reply to] Can't Post

but I'm a big fan of jigsaw puzzles, as are most of my family and many of my friends. For some reason I only do them in the winter - it might be the weather!

The crew of our local ferry have taken to leaving jigsaw puzzles out on a few tables, so one can while away the trip. One day I was working at a large one and a man walked by and said "you don't expect to finish that before we land, do you?" Then he walked on, saw another puzzle on another table, and I heard him go "OH, they're already here!" Guess he thought I'd brought my own 1000-piece puzzle and expected to complete it in half an hour!

I like to mix reading and watching classic movies [In reply to] Can't Post

Preferably with a pot of chili or stew or chunky homemade soup going and perhaps a kettle of water for tea or some fresh ground Hawaiian coffee to drink while I listen to the rain softly falling.

If reading, I like to play background music like the Carpenters, Amy Grant, Brothers Cazimero, light jazz, etc.

I voted for several. [In reply to] Can't Post

I count playing musical instruments as working on hobbies.

Porch [In reply to] Can't Post

I love to relax on the porch during a summer rain.
