I live in Hadlow, Kent, where I'm chief butler to a Manx cat. My hobbies and interests include molinology, deltiology, civil aircraft, railways and Dutch. I have been researching the windmills, millers and millwrights of Norwich for a number of years. The results of my research can be found on the Norfolk Mills website. I have been an admin on Wikipedia since 26 September 2009, and am apparently an "old guard admin", whatever that means. I have an alternate account for use when away from my own computer and not in need of admin's tools - Mjroots2.
I am (distantly) related to a number of Wikinotable people, including Jane Austen,[1] Frank Merrick,[2] William Rootes,[3] Flora Twort,[2] Frederick Twort,[2] Henry Vane,[4] and William Vousden VC.[5]
