 So here it is Merry Chri............No sorry So here it is at last the much talked about, biggest who is is since the Stig on Top Gear Lord Paul shows his true image to the public - complete with too tight baseball cap.

 You old rogue m'lud. You may have got away with it but the blue cross on the fleece gave it away. That's the Icelandic national symbol - it took me a while to research it but soembody had to flick through all those Scandavian magazines - that's a photo of Bjork's second cousin - Knut Knutessonessonesson Clever old you to maintain the essential mystery of class

 Nice ghostie, well done.

 Well spotted Poshers - that fleece has some what of a history - I believe it was washed once in 2004 after a particularly slimy bream left it's gunk all over it - that my story and I'm sticking to it. what do can't see is the spectacular green trousers very well - last washed October 1847 - now there arm home made camouflage -browns from boiles, beige from ground bait , reds from maggots, a whole kaleidoscope of colours from fishing trips over they years.

 Thanks Graham - funny thing it went to 15lb 4oz on my old scales but 13lb 9oz on the brother-in-laws electronic scales - difficult to tell from a photo

 Nice fish m'lud. There's a few of those knocking about in a local pool that I take my lad to. How to spot Lord Paul on a windy day? He's the only one with his hat still on. You won't need to wear a red rose on our charity get together now. Talking of which......

 Lovely fish m'lud -a magnificent ghostie always amazes me how the taxidermists get the fish to give that evil glare.  Do you get a man do do your stuffing or do you do it yourself? I used to live opposite somebody who specialised in stuffing game birds - lived near a shooting estate and was always on the lookout for road kill.

Not dead Poshers but it took a couple of those "exotic cigerettes" to get it to keep still
I too like stuffing the odd bird or two - Paxo sage and onion
