A new user: originally a Man of Kent, livid for many years south of London, and now back in Kent, UK.

Retired - having spent almost exactly one third of century in the employ of the UK's major telecommunications provider.

Educated as a scientist: qualified with an Honours Degree in Pure Chemistry from UCL [University College London]. Latterly an IT Manager with expertise in Broadband Provisioning, SDH circuit configuration and Prestel provision and in between a general purpose middle manager.

Have researched my family history for around 15 years, resulting in an independently sourced tree of around 800 relatives, going back around 300 years.

Hoping to contribute to articles where I have some background - provided that I can locate suitable reference material that is appropriate for publication in an online encyclopaedia.

Current situation is that of a long term user and admirer of Wikipedia, who is continuing to understand where and how to learn about how best to make a contribution.

After 40 odd years familiarity with personal computers, starting with the Acorn Atom, still relying upon an average of one finger per hand to express myself online, these days via Windows and Linux platforms.

Definition of Inspeximus according to OED ^[1] is "Law. A charter in which the grantor avouches to have inspected the earlier charter which he recites and confirms" [L., = 'we have inspected'; the first word in recital of the inspection of charters etc.].
