From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Currently living and working in south-west London, I'm originally from north-west England (with a Welsh father).
I've a strong interest in classical music, singing tenor in several choirs, and formerly playing the trombone. I started singing as a choir boy in Anglican church choirs, whilst not really being a practicing Anglican these days, I have strong family ties to the Church of England (and indeed the Church in Wales). One of the choirs I sing with serves primarily as a "Visiting choir", filling in for English Cathedral choirs when they are on holiday, and occasionally touring European cathedrals (and other large churches). As a result of this I've been editing various articles related to this topic, and I'm currently trying to straighten out the Morning Prayer article here.
Whilst a maths student at Imperial College, I started going to The Proms as a prommer in 1997, and that was the first article I edited in Wikipedia (as one of many people at IP 81.19.57.130 since I hadn't created an account then).
I'm also involved in field hockey, playing during my teens and early twenties and now umpiring in Surrey. Other than than that I'm a change ringer and will read just about any book I can lay my hands on.
I also spent some years living in Peterborough, which explains the odd edits I've made to articles there.
Other than those areas of interest, I like browsing around using Random article, and occasionally make the odd copy-edit or comment on a talk-page if I spot something particularly glaring.
I am, so far as I know, unrelated to David Underdown.
