I am a secondary school student living in South-East England. My interests include maths, IT, Latin and law. I was an avid player of Warhammer Fantasy Battles, although pressures upon my time have rather disrupted that, and my new unusual hobby is VATSIM. Please do not ever call me Dave; it irritates me, and I have to send the gribblies of unspeakable horror to wreak eternal vengance upon you, and believe me, they don't assume good faith, refrain from personal attacks, and they even *shudder* make legal threats. As I said, they're unspeakable.

I've just finished writing some articles on pieces of UK legislation (and hope to move on to the common law this year), as well as one on the Lepanto opening, and others on Roman litigation and Legal wagers. I also write the Report on Lengthy Litigation for the Wikipedia Signpost.

If you want to contact me, please leave a message on my talk page. I'll try to reply to you on yours. Alternatively, you can e-mail me. If you're new, you might want to try out my how not to look like a newbie page. Any and all (constructive) comments are welcome on my talk page.

I received this award from Nicholas Turnbull:

The Handshake of Opponents Award
The customary handshake offered between opponents at the end of a sporting match is analogous to the attitude that dispute resolution is helping to create here on Wikipedia, which is desperately needed. In recognition of David Mestel's continued efforts towards advising people embroiled in disputes on how to bring them to an amicable state of truce, I hereby offer him this award, along with my sincerest wishes for his continued success and participation. --NicholasTurnbull | (talk) 02:03, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
