But fugs, I thought JP was yer uncle....

• Shouldn't you know what he looks like?

(Oh, and thanks for teaching me a new word: "totty")

Yes but me comes from a peculiar family!!

I said right at the start the point was about how different people percieved things, based on the same evidence.

It wasn't a whoever can guess my weight wins a coconut competition.

I think it is interesting the variations in things like my age, of which there is a reasonable spread. However the perception on what I may do for a living is for the most part fairly consistant. Sort of teacher / office collar and tie type thing.

The other thing is that most people need things to reach a conclusion. The exercise in and of itself is not enough. To such an extent that there are even posts which say things like, I knew he would never come clean so I didn't express an opinion. That is an interesting response in itself, suggesting that they would not take part, as the exercise would not reach a definitive conclusion.

That one in particular might be because you regularly lie about it

Yes fair point I say it is 76 on a regular basis, however given the context in which it is said, it is always an obvious lie. At least I think it is.

When posting seriously I invariably say I am 42.

If I have said anything else I cannot remember having done so, however please remember I am 76 and the old memory is going.
