Why is talking to cats a guilty pleasure, Hubert???
Do you mean instead of humans? If so, I can relate.

Glad you liked that Griff.

There was a time when I'd say that this board was a guilty pleasure. In those early days, it was positively an addiction...

Home-made Toblerone ice cream with a piece of apple pie (also home made), and a good brew of coffee with it- works for me- and with lots of cigs after of course.

I talk to cats all the time, even on the street. I've made many a feline friend that way. They recognize me and come running to me from afar, a heartwarming sight.

I do that with dogs - especially ones locked in gardens. Funny how the barky ones soften.
I like buying any action figures, if they're cheap enough.
I like cinema nachos, despite the fact you only get feeble amounts. It's the peppers, and the warm cheese sauce (which once upon a time you could buy from the supermarket, but then they stopped selling it!)
Buffy is not a guilty pleasure! It's class!

Assembling plastic model kits, especially spaceships (Star Wars!). I'm still looking for the Seaview and Flying Sub, too. And Captain Nemo's Nautilus. And the Discovery from 2001. And the Nostromo from Alien. And . . .

Meat Loaf's Bat out of Hell.

I thought it best to get that one out of the way nice and early. But it's impossible not to love something so colossally dumb.

My dad and uncles initiated me into the joys of Felin Foel as a youngster, and I always make it a point to have some whenever I go back to Wales. I stopped drinking completely over ten years ago (mostly because it makes my condition worse and isn't a great mix with the medicine I take), but I always have a few while on holiday.

'Collecting old three Investigator books'

Yes! The Mystery of the Invisible Dog and The mystery of The Sinister Scarecrow' come to mind. I loved those when I was young. They were sort of a step up from those old Famous Five books where everyone always stopped up and drank lots of tea.

"'Geocaching'

?"


It's a fun little hobby that my family and I like to join in. Basically, you buy a hand held GPS unit and logg onto Geocaching.com. There you put in your zip code or the zip code of a place you will be traveling to, and it will bring up the coordinates of all these little treasures that people have hide in various places (usually in forests, or under bridges, places that people who aren't looking for them won't see). You take small trinkets to replace whatever little treasure you take from the cache (usually inside a tupperware container or an empty ammo box). Then you can log back onto the site and post messages about the find. I've even placed my own before that others went to find. Unfortunately, we had bad flooding in the area that washed it away. There are geocaches hidden all over the US and abroad.

They are what got me started reading at a young age. I used to love them. The Mystery of The Green Ghost, The Secret of Skeleton Island, I loved them all.

Burnt School boy Magazine. I know I shouldn't...but the biannual scalded prefect pull out section is very collectable.

Have I misunderstood?

Is Pan-avoidance a guilty pleasure? According to my friend Helen, Pan-encountering is both guiltier and more pleasurable.
