I do love that Roszak cooks. It softens his character somewhat.

Also, the best-ever canon hobby: Benjamin Mayhew and his flowers. :D

Benjamin and his flowers will always be the best ever canon hobby.

Honor Alexander-Harrington enjoys reading old-fashioned paper books. That's canon.

Cheers

From the Grayson viewpoint, Honor's swimming is odd. But I love Benjamin's flower thing.

Thing? Can we say greenhouse or conservatory of rare orchids?

The greenhouse is the structure; his hobby is horticulture and flower arranging, which is a lot of words. So, flower thing.

I also wanted to add the practice of martial arts to Honor's list.
But I'm not sure that it should be considered a hobby.
She's so good at it and she kicks so much ass with it, that perhaps it should be considered part of her profession?

Nimitz.
Likes hunting unwary animals just for the fun of it. Hiking, practical jokes, hide-n-seek and tag with little ones and throws a mean frisbee.

Did Honor mention that Nimitz got into frisbees after seeing Alfred throwing one with their dog?

Where is this dog? I imagine it's gone now-- do they have another one? What kind of dog? What was it named? Are there adorable family photos with said dog?

Do Hamish and Emily have a pet? Will they let the kids have some? What will they ask for? How many extraterrestrial pet species are there?
