User:Meanderingbartender

On-and-off editor of Wikipedia for fifteen years. My interests have reverted back to history rather than economics, politics, and current news so thought a new account was in order. Never been banned or blocked under any accounts. Happy to provide old username.

As the username suggested, I'm a bartender and I travel around. Well, I used to. Now I'm a history student at Open University.
