Some nice photos there, Jo (the one of Desk and myself excepted).
I do hope we can get that one of Ashley and (I think) McGovern Jnr. into the caption competition.

Oops, that's what you get for putting 'em up drunk 
I'll sort them tonight.

Well at least there were no bloody salad tongs in evidence in that photograph.

So any one interested in a caption competition?
We are going to be running it slightly differently this year - over a number of weeks in the Post. Each edition will have two pictures in it and we will run it over 5 weeks.
How does that sound?

Sounds reasonable
I trust mousemats, mugs and t-shirts will be offered to encourage community participation.

Sounds like a plan to me.

I suppose that ought to have said, '... all four'. But the moment has passed.

Abi Posted Jul 7, 2003
Yes there will be prizes!
And special prizes too - though we are not very sure what those are.

Mu Beta Posted Jul 7, 2003
Yay! Caption competition.
Not quite sure what the point is of running it gradually over five weeks, though. Couldn't you just put the same bunch of pictures in for five weeks running?

Mu Beta Posted Jul 7, 2003
But I might miss a week then, due to the stress of house-moving.

Mmmm...caption competition
Well, don't deny that I made you all laugh with the last one. The amount of merchandise I got as a result seems to suggest as much.

Abi Posted Jul 7, 2003
So why are you so keen to win more? Are you stockpiling it to flog on Ebay?

Mu Beta Posted Jul 7, 2003
I'm not, really. I just revel in my humble ability to make people laugh.
I'm quite happy to give any non-original merchandise away to the needy. Daraline got my mouse-mat at the Party.

Why do I get the feeling this caption competition is only going to involve pictures of me and a certain other researcher?
