I am a Computer Programmer living in West Sussex, England and working in London. I have had an account on Wikipedia since 23rd January 2004.

I used to edit a lot but these days I don't have much time.

My main interests lie in the areas of computers, cars, and heavy metal/rock music.

I started WikiProject:Automobiles, but these days most of the work is done by others. I sometimes work on WikiProject: Missing articles. I am Commons:User:akadruid.
