Some things on my list are completely new and some others were rekindled from pre-drinking (childhood)

Choir
Bell ringing (up in a church tower - this didn't last long)
Running club
AA meetings
Creative writing group
Playing trumpet with a brass band
Sewing (making clothes and other small items - I'm a bit rubbish though to be honest )
Meeting (sober) friends for a walk or coffee or both
Going away for sobriety or meditation retreat weekends occasionally
Volunteering to help at local events
Seeing my mum (I DID see her before, but always in a rush so I could get back to booze. Now I take time and relish her company)
Church activities and duties
Having quiet time to myself - I add this because this is a newfound pleasure. In the past I didn't really like being alone and quiet.
