Congratulations Diamond!!

Very, very funny!!!!

Kimmy

May I send my congratulations to Diamond

On 27th December, I explained that the reason why I decided not to comment on the December Caption Competition article (having made seven comments on the November Caption Competition article) and not to have aspirations of saying anything humorous was because I believe that people prefer not to see me trying too hard to be humorous.

I shouldn't be too disheartened though, as I am hopeful of doing well in the Seasonal Photo Quiz (for which I sent my entry for parts two and three earlier tonight having already done so for part one). However, if I don't do well in that competition then I can't see myself ever doing well in an MTWD competition.

It seems that some people are well-suited to coming up with funny captions for a photo and are ill-suited to identifying cricketers in a photo, and that the opposite is true of others (well, I know that some have said that they find the quiz difficult). I believe that I am in the latter group, although I don't know whether there is anyone who can be considered as well-suited to both types of competition.

My entry to Seasonal Photo quiz was awful but am quite good at spotting people.

I've been told I'm very good at satirical humour. But have never won a cartoon caption competition on MTWD,

I feel I am a failed all rounder here. But like you say Jonathan I shouldn't be too disheartened

Perhaps that is because MTWD has never published a cartoon caption competition, only photo captions.

Well done to Diamond, btw, whose winning caption was excellent - a much deserved win. Also well done to everyone who entered, there were several really good entries this month.

Diamond, you have two choices prize-wise. If you want the regular miniscule prize, please simply send me your address by PM or e-mail and one of those will be yours. Or you could elect to judge the next competition as an alternative prize.

Many thanks for the congratulations on my win , thus breaking JC's dominance of this competition, I will save you the cost of postage on the miniscule prize Ged and become the "hanging judge" of next months comp if you do not mind.

I'm traumatised.

Shrek - are you traumatised by:

* the photograph;
* the fact that Diamond won the competition;
* the fact that you didn't manage to enter the comeptition;
* something else?

The photograph.

I'm traumatised by the whole damn lot....

Well done Diamond. Quite happy with 2nd place. In fact if this is the beginning of 3 second places this year, it will end with The R's in the prem and MCCC in div one.

I know, I know, almost too much to dream for after years of hurt.

If there's one thing worse than writing on this thread about football, then it would be writing on this thread about an assumption that whoever finishes second in the 2011 County Championship division 2 will gain promotion. My maths says that as a consequence of the ECB wishing to reduce division 1 to eight teams and increase division 2 to ten teams for 2012, there will have to be one less promotion place than relegation place in 2011, so in all probability there will either be two teams promoted and three relegated or one promoted and two relegated, with my money being on the ECB opting for the latter scenario. This is something I wrote about on 17th November and Gerry wrote about on Facebook the same day, although it seems that not many others are concerned about this, which would explain why the news may have passed Jeff by. Many articles have been published that have mentioned the plans to change the balance of the divisions, but none seem to have mentioned how it is planned it will be achieved. In order to reduce my anxiety, can be have some clarification please?

Hopefully QPR will indeed be a Premier League club in 2011/12 (I wrote on 29th December about how much I like seeing London teams - and teams supported my MTWD posters in particular - do well) and Middlesex will indeed be in division 1 of the County Championship in 2012, but sadly for non-QPR supporters I have to say that I think that off the two events the one likelier to happen will be QPR gaining promotion.

Well dome Diamond on your win,looking forward to the next pic to be shown.
