And the winner is:

Dads Day by Lawford

Congratulations Lawford. Mark was the judge of this one and his feedback was “A great punchy little story with the photograph central to the tale.”

He also said “Alison’s story was great, very intriguing and I would dearly love to know if there is a what happened before or next.” He also asked if one ever appeared for me to please let him know.

Well done to you both.

I will have to recuse myself on this one as I am situated in Las Vegas Nevada USA. Nuff said. It would be patently unfair of me to play in this hand, I mean challenge. Besides I have a “meeting” to go to. Ahem, well, you know…. ;-)

my turn to apologise to y’all. Lawford and Alison, you are both the most consistent contributors in this group and you should be proud of your efforts. Thank you also Alison for the compliment re the flow of ideas. That’s what it’s all about … not so much winning … and the fact that you both continue to deliver gives me heart (and although I don’t want to speak on Cathryn’s behalf, I bet she would agree).
