Having had a second look, and reading into the question, as in "look carefully"
this fish looks spawned out , Grahams hand seems to indicate a slightly deflated fish. Oh well I cant change my guess.
good luck

I didn't read into the question myself. DOH ! apologies folks.

I'd hate to have some of you weighing my fish ........

Hmmm?
The Boss has got small hands and deep pockets.
The hands look quite large and it's got a big hump, the fish, not Graham...
Hmmm? Is it a twenty?.....Hmmm?
Brummie 32.06??? Is that Spider O'Clock weight?
Needs some more studying before I enter an educated guess

[Graham Marsden]

Pounds and ounces please Cakey. Yes, I know 17kg is about 37.478 lbs but I'd rather you gave me your guess in pounds and ounces.

Not being pedantic but the competition will be judged to the nearest ounce before it goes to a draw from the hat.

DELPHI TECHNIQUE

Interesting experiment coming up, guessing by the Delphi Technique.
This is where you take the guesses so far, knock off the top two and bottom two, and average out the remainder.

The average so far is --------- 22lbs 9½ozs

Now the trick is to have another guess and we take the average of those new guesses and then you have another guess for the final Delphi answer - and strangely, it's not usually too far from the truth.

The problem with using the Delphi technique in these circumstances Woody is that it assumes some basic competence in the guessers!

31lb 8oz
