And the winners are

Postby gstark on Sat Dec 13, 2008 5:42 pm

We're at Sheepie's right now - thank you Leon and Amanda for your generous hospitality and we're all enjoying a modicum of Christmas cheer.

I have just had the pleasure of announcing the challenge winners, and I figured that it's a good idea to share this with y'all.

And so ...

1: Tim Tams - Steve Griffin, Qld

2: Popcorn - Andre, NSW

3 : See You - Mr Darcy, NSW

4: The boy in his swimwear - Alex, Vic

5: Goodbye Ma - Makario, Vic



Troy Gray (Vic) receives the special part 2 (only) prize for Kendall 3

Thank you linesmen, thank you ballboys.

Thank you participants for your very fine work, thank you Leigh and Matt for your help in the judging process, and thank you Jeff and Glen for your most genrous sponsorship of this challenge.

Hey Thank you all, but its confusing having real names rather than handles up.
Can we get those added please.
I wasn't sure until I checked that I had won third prize :D
And I think, but am not quite certain that Andre is Radar

PJS is also thrilled to have 1. an award winning photographer and 2. an award winning model (her father) in the family :lol:

Congratulations to all the winners, a very tough field. Will contact everyone in the next few days to get the prizes out, my wife was taken to hospital late Sunday night and not sure how long she is in or if they will operate, will get the prizes out when possible. Cheers

Shane, thanks very much. She is out now but a barrage of tests early January.

Troy Gray, I tried to find your membership details and couldn't, probably just too tired, could you PM me your address and will get your prize out? Thanks
