I couldn't quite manage a Bond-esque type tableau for Barbulus – normally a Berretta or Walther PPK, Morland cigarette in ashtray, Martini glass, fan of cards with Royal Flush and some ladies undergarment casually draped nearby… So here are a few bits from my armoury. Apologies to Mr Fleming but at least there’s a bit of fishnet on display :Chuckle:

The hat is my old faithful and has lost its hat band, replacement woven leather one is awaited from my daughter’s fair hand. I think some of Q’s style hat furniture would be a great improvement. As per earlier post a Tarp hat is also under consideration.
 
 PS ....Matthew........... just a glimpse to tease.....keep the thread on track :Wink:

Great photograph there NN. I wonder how many folk take a Walter PPK in their traditional fishing bag......anyway......it reminds me that I am going to have a go at splitting some cane for the landing net arms soon....another Winter Project.
