Gary stressed that the majority of claimed sightings do not get included. He said: “Anything that is later proved to be a hoax or can be subsequently explained is removed from the register. I never expected to be doing it this long but, after 25 years, nobody has solved the mystery – so I expect I will be doing it to the day I die. There have been three credible accounts which have really stood out over the years.
“Richard White, in 1997, who took a series of photos of something coming out of the water.

“Glasgow postman Bobbie Pollock who, in 2000, took a video of an object swimming in Invermoriston Bay. But the best picture was taken by a 12-year-old girl on holiday with her parents.”
Little Charlotte Robinson was visiting from Yorkshire in 2018, when Nessie popped up about 50ft away.
Gary added: “It has been a good start to the year already. I think this proves that Nessie’s not gone anywhere.”
