MY HOBBY
We are best friends,
My hobby and I.
We have such fun
My hobby and I.
We are best friends,
Can you say why?
There are a lot of proverbs
about hobbies

He works best who works his trade.
Every man to his trade.
Practice is the best master.
He who begins many things finishes but
few.
The busiest men find the most leisure.
There is no accounting for tastes.
Our best friend is our hobby.
No living man all things can.
Tastes differ.
Where there is a will, there is a way.
One Thing at
a Time
Work while you work,
Play while you play.
That is a way
To be happy and gay.
All that you do
Do with your might,
Thinks done by halves
Are never done right.
One thing at a time,
And that done well,
Is a very good rule
As many can tell.
