About Me

Welcome to my STINKING PROFILE. My name is Holly, or Smalls, or Wally, or "The Toshmeister", or Hollster.. There are many variations, you know. Have a go. Make your own. I am a minature, dermatologically-challenged and probably borderline autistic bass player, and for GOD'S SAKE DON'T CALL ME A ROCK CHICK OR I MAY HAVE TO HAVE STRONG WORDS WITH YOU, I do have values, you know... I was born in Kingston in Surrey, but moved to sunny Weymouth when I was just a tot. I have an older sister and two younger brothers. I took to scribbling and talking drivvle at an early age, and took up the bass guitar at the age of eleven, after unsuccessful attempts at learning the recorder, piano, violin and mandolin. It seems to have stuck...I am currently doing a degree in Film studies and Music at Anglia Polytechnic in Cambridge. Film is fun, but my talent in this field is highly questionable. I manage to get the odd crap Jazz gig here and there, even if it causes my hair to drop out. I occasionally try and write my own songs, but then I realise they are rubbish and give up. I can also play the guitar a bit and sing in quite a deep voice (for a lady).I enjoy doing anything musical, gigging and going to watch gigs, drinking cups of tea, eating large pieces of cake and huge slabs of chocolate, lying around in bed, going on long walks and having a larf and a chat with my friends. I like going to the pub. I like the beach, the countryside and anywhere with lots of nice trees. I love old buildings. If I could afford it I would only buy organic food. I like cold weather, but I don't actually like being cold. I detest Big Brother and anything/body associated with it. I like to get pleasantly drunk, but I only ever go clubbing to torment chavs and townies with my outlandish behaviour and dancing. I would like to own a bicycle. I absolutely hated being at school. I favour pearls over diamonds. My favourite Beatle is George. I think smoking is big and clever. I like going out to dinner or nice cafes. I avoid using "text-speak" as I think it is shit. I once swallowed the ballbearing from a game of Mousetrap. I once took a test to see how 'twee' I was- my result was 74%, and I am not embarrassed by this fact. I like high heeled shoes but I feel like a prat when I wear them. I think Pete Doherty is a fool. I once spent an entire day watching Nicktoons. I enjoy giving presents as much as I like receiving them. I often wish that all my music was on vinyl. I waste alot of time worrying about things that may not even happen. I once spotted one of the Chuckle Brothers in Boots (it was the little thin one.. Barry? yes..). I would love to do a bit more travelling and explore Spain a bit more. My sister is Hannahmac (see below. She is fun). I have a pierced nose. A typical Libran, I am indecisive to the extreme, so currently- my favourite colour is black with grey bits, my favourite food is probably crumpets, my "Top Tipple" is vodka, lime and soda, and the award for the "Most Convincing Asthmatic Goose Impression" goes to Joss Stone (Yes, just because you can sing lots of notes very quickly, doesn't mean you should. Nobber.) I think that's probably enough now. Yes..

My Interests

I LIKE...Music, playing the Bass Guitar, films, film making, drawing cartoons, reading, drinking lots of tea and wine, useless miscellany, swimming, Walking and being outside, art, writing very very bad screenplays, nice fabric/material, photography, eating, drama, eating sweets, playing acoustic guitar not very well, sleeping, standing around, Eastern European and Scandanavian things/artefacts/animation, toast, general mooching, singing, talking crap, impersonating Bob Dylan, playing with animals (especially dogs and rats), stupid dancing, eggs.

I'd like to meet:

Interesting, open-minded people who are up for creative collaborations of some kind- Music, films, screenplays, comic books, etc etc. A very talented dog with good fashion sense. People with very little talent but who take themselves MUCH too seriously, so I can ridicule them, and self-depricating people who are very talented, so I can be in awe of them and big them up "Big-Style" . Harveys Pekar and Keitel, Joni Mitchell, the Moomins, Oliver Postgate, Andy Partridge, Howard Moon, that nice Tim from The Office, Jaco Pastorius, Lily Tomlin, and perhaps James Blunt and Robbie Williams. Purely to give them both a thorough kicking, the dick-munchers...
