Hey I'm Olly. I live in Bournemouth and am a civil engineer. I enjoy spending my weekends socialising in pubs with friends and good conversation.

I grew up in Oxford and regularly lead a scout group to enjoy the great outdoors. I like acting and am involved with local drama societies. Other hobbies include visiting friends, cooking, films and music. I'm into all kinds of music, particularly 60s and 70s rock. I also have a pet pigmy albino Hedgehog called Womble.

I'm looking for someone that doesn't take themselves too seriously and is up for a laugh. I like to listen, and prefer to meet up with people who like to talk. So, if you like a quiet pub with a nice local ale then lets grab that table in the corner and talk the night away.

I love reading too much to have a favourite. It's all a bit prejudice really, saying one book is better than another.

Ghostbusters. It was a close call between that and Vampire Killer Barbies, but ghostbusters pulled through on the fact that it actually had a plot.

Guitar based rock, it'll never die. If you go back and listen to the old Buddy Holly records, just hear how cool his guitar is. That flat piece of board with a few strings tied on to it manages to be considerably cooler then many of todays popstars.
