Recreation

[Ebony AKA AngieJ]

I asked about this on the Paradise list, but no one answered... 
so I thought I'd bring this to the experts.

What are the most common forms of recreation in England, and 
elsewhere in the world?  In other words, what would you do on a 
date, or hanging out with friends?

Popular pasttimes here include:
-dinner and a movie
-going to sports bars
-nightclubs/dancehalls
-casinos/gambling
-skating and bowling (I always think of those two together, for 
some reason)
-laser tag (I'll admit, this is really more for families and kids)

I'm not talking highbrow events (gallery openings or the opera) or 
even ticketed events (concerts, major sporting events).  I'm 
talking "this is something I do by default every weekend" types of 
things.

If I was a student at Oxford (or in your home country/hometown) 
and wanted a break from studying on a Saturday night, what 
would I do for fun?
