How did you first get into your main hobby? Was it a slow build or love at first try?

A natural way to answer

It happened quite gradually. A colleague invited me to a pottery class and at first I only went to be polite. But over a few weeks I really got hooked, and one day it all just clicked. I started turning up regularly after that.

Key phrases to use

• get hooked — to start enjoying something so much that you can't stop doing it“I watched one episode and got hooked.”
• click — when something suddenly makes sense or feels right“After weeks of struggling, it finally clicked.”
• turn up — to arrive or go to a place, often used about showing up regularly“Just turn up and we'll find you a spot.”
