Re: Spot the Gaff
There's a nice "glass floor" in the spinnaker, right by the Saint's halo, standing on there and looking down isn't for those with acrophobia.
Nice area to visit around there though (but not necessarily for Simon Templar fans).

Barnes and Wood
By my calculations they've scored 33 goals in the 36 games they've started together (18 for Barnes, 15 for Wood).
Not bad.

Re: Barnes and Wood
Chris Wood has made 59 PL starts for Burnley and scored 20 goals, in addition he has come on as a sub in 13 PL games and scored 5 goals ---not a bad rate for a striker.

SAILING
a spar to which the head of a fore-and-aft sail is bent.
"a gaff-rigged cutter"
Plus the Spinaker Tower is based on a Sail.... perhaps there is small gaff rigged cutter sailing vessel in the picture

Gaff - a place to stay.
Gaffe - an unintentional error.
Perhaps they are code for Barnes and Wood!

Its called a life of quizzing and doing crosswords m8 .... a hell of a lot of crap floating around in my head.... (floating /sailing pun not intended....) and google of course
We won a bottle of wine on the cruise by me knowing "Barbara Millicent Roberts" is the full name of Barbie the doll... the other teams said I was sad for knowing that... so as we walked out and held up my bottle of P&O house red and said "yeah but I am the 'Sad one' with the bottle of wine" to great cheers from my team and the Bar Staff.

And SERIOUSLY Boss - how the f!ck would you know that a bloody doll even has a 'real' name? That has got to be the most weird piece of information ever. It's a bit like knowing Father Christmas' real name.*
