Klops
Hullo! I'm a 12k player. Permanently 12k, by all appearances.
I'm from Scotland, where most people have never heard of go/baduk/wei qi, so I only play online - and only on the KGS server.
"Klops" is german for meatballs and polish for meatloaf.
"Klop" or "клоп" is russian for bug.
The photo (same as on my KGS info) was taken on a hill called the Bouchaille Etive Mor in Glencoe, Scotland - probably the most photographed hill in Scotland. In fact, it's illegal to publish a scottish scenic calendar without including at least one shot of it.
I turned it around 90 degrees to look more exciting.
The Kingshouse hotel has a webcam pointed at the Bouchaille : http://freespace.virgin.net/kings.house.
If it's all grey, it's not broken, that's scottish weather.
Other interests :
- Classical guitar (it's my ambition to one day be mediocre at this too).
- Languages: French and German - used to be not bad at these but they're neglected and getting rusty now while I'm busy wrestling with the latest toy - Russian. My russian links are at :

If anyone cares to chat to me online, try downloading "Skype" - free internet telephone thingy at http://www.skype.com. It's fun and easy to use - I've tried it for reviewing/coaching. It's quicker and a bit more human than typed chat.
I would rotate this too, if I knew how :)
