Hello, and welcome to penguin's user page. my Dutch page

I come from Belfast, Northern Ireland. I've been on Wikipedia since 2006.

I originally studied geology at college, then switched to clay sculpture before training as a chartered accountant. I am interested in local history, modern art and science fiction. My favourite authors are Jack Vance and Jane Austen.



Geology of Northern Ireland
I am currently working on the article Geology of Northern Ireland. It's a large subject and the page will probably not go live until at least Feb 2013 May 2013 July 2013. I'm working on lots of smaller NI geology-based articles as well.
