A great line up Michael! Does the guilty party always have a large arrow pointed at his head? No wonder the police always get their man! I think the second one in from the left is guilty, he looks too innocent...lol

The guilty one is the one whom you instinctively feel is guilty Fiona. Your instinct about the second from the left being innocent will be correct, especially when the police instinct is that the one being arrowed is guilty. Someone did it didn't they? I think a man who is baldy on top but has a ponytail, an earring and a tattoo is as guilty as hell.

I think you used to get about a tenner for standing John. A tenner was a tenner in those days.
