Hello! I discovered wikipedia quite recently, enjoy browsing here, and soon felt the compulsion to contribute by adding the glaring omissions (well, ok, personal favourites then if you prefer!). My user name was created originally for a yahoo bird site and was then reused as I couldn't cope with multi-identity. It's incomprehensible to birders, embarrassing (for me) to speakers of Japanese, and only intelligible to English birders who speak Japanese. If you want to know ask someone who fulfils both criteria.
I spent several years at school in the Netherlands, then studied German and Music in this country (England), and have been teaching music now for more years than I care to remember. My hobbies: music(!), birdwatching, jogging, reading, languages.

also several articles on the Simple English pages.
I very much enjoy reading other people's articles about all sorts of things (a random article a day) and often find little problems that need ironing out.
