I is an aging (b. 1973) Irish editor that goes by Paul and what likes Insular metalwork, nice pictures, most but especially electronic music, graveyards and tombs. And seems to be lost somewhere between 700 and 1480 AD. I try and follow the sparse and clear prose style as advocated by the wiki editors Tony1 and John, both of whom have been very kind to me at different points over the years, among many other colleberative and knowledgable editors such as Victoria, Outriggr, Johnbod, SandyGeorgia + a bunch of others.
Am happily married to User:Kafka Liz, who is far brighter, prettier and refined but still married to me. Phew!
