His social skills were off the scale.
I remember the first time he met Heather and Nathan (or Churchy +1 in forum talk) i threw together dinner (3 courses.. because i can) got some beers in and openend a bottle of wine. The 5 of us sat down and worked our way through the usual Dinner party subjects; War, France, Cheese.. Paul as always contributing fantastically. Then Sof started to go through the Churchy + 1's wedding photos to give Paul an idea of what it was like.
Paul was sat back, legs crossed.. as he does when Sof got to a picture of all the girls in Bikinis doing doing their catalouge poses. Paul nearly tore out his lower vertibrate and inhaled his roll up when that pictutre came on the screen.. all you could hear was "Christ.. I say!" as he sat back down in his chair to relight his roll up, grinning from ear to ear.
about an hour later, still talking about cheese or something when fiddy put his head by his hands and acted like he was looking at something on the floor.. he stayed there for a while and after about 10 minutes we realised he was asleep!
He was sat in his chair, head on his hand, rested on the table, fast asleep!
30 minutes later he sat bolt up right, put the pre-rolled fag that was all the time in his right hand, into his mouth, lit it and jumped into the conversation seemlessly.
Not one of us thought that was strange, or even commented till the next day when Nathan and I agreed we couldn't wait for the day we could get away with falling asleep on the table
