Do not approach as you will be subjected to hours of boredom with questions like - does the IS work or is it windy today?

If seen, please contact spectrum headquarters where captain scarlet (everyone's hero) will send a clean up team to the either beat him up or brutally banterise him! ;)

Spectrum is green.
