A nicely repainted bonnet badge to anyone who can correctly guess the name of the gentleman I visited yesterday.
Older and more confused than I could ever imagine possible.

the fact it was a gentleman excludes most of the male members here.
How about the Arch Bishop of Canterbury if you went to the service to mark 200 years since the abolition of slavery in England?
