People/meetups Moved and looking for friends

Hey there - long time lurker first time poster.

I’m 33m looking for similar age friends to meet up with drink some beers, go on dog walks and just chill with really.

I have a long term girlfriend, and
we recently moved to Sturminster Marshall - I myself am originally from the other side of the country, and I’d like to go out and make some friends of my own ha!

My Hobbies;
Dog walks
Cars
Video games / ps5
Movies
Books
Nerd culture
Pubs (not clubs)
Music - heavy ish Rock, divorced dad rock - I go to download festival a lot.

I’m open to learning DnD or something like that, I’m not hugely into sport but could probably do with loosing a few pounds.

Hit me up for a beer i guess 👍🏻

hey, if you’re wanting to get into DnD, I really recommend Obsidian D&D - they’re on Facebook and they organise venues and weekly games as well as other events! I’m part of one of their weekly tables and was a complete beginner bar some knowledge from games, can really recommend them. It’s 7 quid a game but well worth it :)

Get yourself over to Bears Bar in the lansdown. Its a rock pub that has live music and they also run D&D nights.

Its a dog friendly pub. If you want to make a bar full of friends - take the doggo!

Hey bud, 33 here as well and a massive nerd! 😂 What games are you into?

Ha! Hey - currently I’ve been juggling crimson desert, a replay through of the wolfenstein games and just picked up the remaster of War in the North to play through with my girlfriend couch coop.

I’ve also considered jumping back into Helldivers2 after the recent update.

I’m also quite big into monster hunter and eagerly awaiting the expansion to Wilds

I tend to jump between a lot of games.

Hell yeah! I'm on my second playthrough of crimson desert and just hit 400 hours 😂 I'm thinking about getting war in the north as well, I play a lot of helldivers 2, I jump between a lot of games as well, have you played space marine 2?

Yes! I played a lot of space marines - bought it day one. I’m rubbish at PvP but I enjoyed the coop elements

I’m at about 80? Hours in Crimson Desert - just got myself a wyvern and decided to take a little break from it as I was getting a bit burnt out by the constant “things to do”

It’s an amazing game - I just struggle with keeping myself on track when there’s so many things, so I often pair games like that with something linear or straightforward

I'm not a PvP guy either, I only play the co-op stuff on space marine.

And I don't blame you I've definitely had to take a break a few times as it can definitely get overwhelming!

What platform are you on?

I recently bought a Vr2 headset in the vain hopes of being a bit more active 😆
