Dad3353 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 A shoot-out at dawn is in order, no..? Pillowcases at 10 paces..? A lowdown at Skol's saloon..? Scissors, paper, stone; best of five..? A second ballot (nah, too boring...)..? Fisticuffs, Queensbury rules..? A toss-up..? Surely a tie-break is in order..? Let the pair of 'em submit another work by tomorrow..? Heads or tails..? No..? Really..? Oh well... Well done, to all. My horse came in equal second. The competition was very stiff, though, this month. Nice work, folks; onward and upward...

Skol303 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 [quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1367410608' post='2065242'] Close one this month - lots of good stuff all round. Well done to everyone..!! Just looking for a picture at this moment.[/quote] Ditto [size=3][*sips rum punch*][/size] [size=4]Thanks for all the positive words, folks![/size] I'm both honoured and slightly embarassed to have had such a good run with these monthly challenges. April was particularly close - there was barely a handful of votes between all of the entries. Five votes would have put anyone into the lead. Still, we got more votes in total than March, which is good. Although more would [i]always[/i] be better! It's a pittance really given the size of this community, but that's not me being ungrateful. I'm just surprised more people here aren't keen to have a listen. I guess you can lead a horse to water, etc, etc... As an idea, I was thinking that those of us taking part could perhaps share an 'advert' in our email signature during the week of voting, plugging the competition. Just a thought. Might help to badger more folks into voting. But no matter. We have a nice, close-knit thing going on here and that's cool Will post a pic for this month along with Garry ASAP (early evening if not this afternoon). Just need to sleep off the conch chowder first... Zzzzzzzz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
