Heraldry, the study of coats of arms, crest, &c. is one of my favourite hobbies.

I'd be too tempted to abate the arms of certain hated politicians anyway).

The dragon seen in the background is a detail from a woodcut done by my great-grandpa many years ago. If I ever become rich enough to register my own coat of arms, this drake will be the crest.
