LameCat was once a Cornerback for the Maidstone Pumas amateur American football club based in Maidstone, Kent until he received a Brachial plexus injury playing that sport; hence the name: Lame (One-handed) Cat (Puma).

Since that day Lame has had super procrastination powers and recently that has manifested into an interest in editing/creating articles on Wikipedia. Other recent interests are Genealogy, reading Historical fiction and researching Military history. But he's not much good at playing Twister.

Recently created articles include

 * South African Light Horse - I noticed that Sir Winston Churchill's page included a link to the Imperial Light Horse regiment which was not the one in which he served and I felt it was important to correct that mistake. The article is not quite complete but almost there!
 * Major-general Sir Geoffrey Barton - Commanded a brigade during the Second Boer War and I wanted to link a him in the above article.
