Cobbler, aka Kristian Schuhmacher, an IYA (Industrial Year Abroad) Final year Student at Aberystwyth University, is studying Computer Science with German, (G4R2), and as far as he is aware, is the only one on such a scheme in his year, or even at the entire uni.
He is currently living in CwrtMawr M in a House on South Road with Rummers as his back garden (yay!) out in the sticks in Germany, near a town called Katzenelnbogen, surrounded by forest and fields in PJM 6 in an almost completely German-speaking house.
Cobbler is semi terrified of CMOT-Weasel for reasons unknown, other than being as spineless as a minced worm. However, he does rely on CMOT-Weasel to help change the tyres on his car (being a German car, it has summer and winter snow tyres) Should Aberystwyth fall under a big blanket of snow and ice, he is prepared as for some reason he has snow chains too - "bring it on Penglais hill".
Here endeth the basics on Cobbler.
