Mick I enjoyed the competitions and as you know I have been a regular contributor, but I am glad they are going to be suspended until the glitch is sorted.......I felt it was a blooming imbuggerance having to get you to upload entries for me.......and by the way Many thanks for that.

Imbuggerance fantastic word ,one i will have to remember, that one

[Margaret Pilkington]

Walkinman...use it and think of me.......I am an imbuggerance!

Derek, it is a family term.......and it used for something that is a bit more than a nuisance.....and that is what I feel I have been, keep asking Mick to upload pictures for me. Now do you get it?

Never mind Margaret....get out and get sanpping......then when the comp re-starts you will have an archive of pics to choose from.

Margaret, seeing as you got a new camera.....can I recommend Picnik to you.
It is an editing tool......brilliant, easy to use and best of all...FREE!

Voting has ended and the winner is Mick

[Mick]

I hope we can start the Photo competitions again soon but until the glitch is sorted this was the last competition for a while.
It will give you a chance to come up with more theme's and you can get out and about with the cameras instead of just sitting there using your stock photos
can i just say thank you to all that took part weather entering a photo or just voting.
This break will also give me a chance to source more prizes too.
Please keep an eye on the photo section and the gallery and as soon as Roy has time to sort it out i will set the next competition and let you all know.
Thank you and a happy new year
