My name is Kevin Oliver. I am 46, Very happily married to Wendy,and we have a very lively Beagle who goes by the name of Poppy.

I am a "Baggie" by birth, having been born in West Bromwich and brought up in Walsall, where I still have close family ties. I now live in Earl Shilton in South Leicestershire, and have lived in East Anglia, Albania, and briefly the USA. I have been involved with people all of my life, having been a Registered Nurse, and a Manager in Retail and Wholesale Logistics. I have also been a Senior Manager with one of Europes leading photographic equipment suppliers. I have travelled widely, both on business and for pleasure.

I have a very deep interest in the First World War, and have visited the Western Front on many occasions. My other interests include Photography, Lawn Bowls, and Travel.

I am a Reiki Okuden ( Practitioner), and practice both on animals and people. I prefer to treat my clients in their own homes, as this is the place that they are generally more relaxed in.

I also make a range of Jewellery and Therapy Stones. They are mainly Healing Crystals as described by Judy Hall et al., but some are stones unearthed by Poppy Beagle!
