I just thought Dotti had a lot of friends.

I wish!!!!!!!!

I did actually contact Mick via a p/m to find out if he knew what was going on when the numbers started to rise so high by leaps and bounds - would be great to think so many people are viewing all the photos, but I doubt it. At first I thought it was very funny but then started to worry a bit about it. Mick thought it was probably a glitch of sorts, and, as he pointed out, the end result is determined by votes anyway - not views.
Best wishes to all - and many thanks to the almost 10,000 viewers, bit of a boost to my self-esteem - this said tongue-in-cheek of course. Cheers!!!!

There might be a glitch, had a look at one it had 66 views, logged out & then back in and it had jumped to 69, tried it with another and that jumped by 3 views in less than 10 seconds.

Same here - I really could have done with 2 votes!

Margaret Pilkington · 22-09-2013, 09:17

I could have done with 5 votes Dainne...and then I think I would still have been head scratching.
I just wish that more folk would get involved.

I just had a looksee and counted that 19 people have cast a vote which is possibly better than in previous competitions. Still quite spread out but there are 3 main contenders so it's going to be interesting to see who gets that extra vote!
