Well done Kitty. It was a really great caption.

Good grief, thank you very much everyone!! The last thing I won was a mug with a tube of Smarties it (don't ask!). In fact, that's about the only other thing I can remember winning! I love this game - all the captions were very funny.

Almost winning for not taking part. That would have to be a first! If only I could have won for not taking part in other things. Like school sports.

Does Kitty (or somebody else) have a picture for us?

Thanks again, everyone! I have to confess, I've absolutely no clue how to get pictures up onto the board, so if anyone else has any, feel free to post! O/w I'll try and learn how?

Oh, gosh, thanks Ming! I've been messing about online for the last 15 minutes trying to work out how to do this - it may well not work, in which case, I'll certainly take you up on your very kind offer!

Eek! Will this work? Um...

This is meant to show a direct link, anyway...

I'm so sorry if all anyone can see is code! I will try my best to make this work. The picture is supposed to be from a Dean copy of Tales of Long Ago which really makes me laugh with it's naff illustrations!

Hey - what do you mean about the naff illustrations?! I used to love the pictures in that book, especially the swirling robes, curling clouds and noble-looking horses with arched necks.

Anyway, here's my caption:

He'd been told that irradiated vegetables were perfectly harmless, but this potato looked more like a 100 watt light bulb!

Lol! Maybe Quentin Kirrin had been experimenting on it!!!

Well, the animals are quite nice, but it's the expressions on the people's faces - every character seems extraordinarily guileless - or gormless, to be less polite - and they do make me laugh! Also, the robes in the pictures do quite often look more like one of granny's old frocks *hides from Dean-liking masses*.

It did appear Kitty! Good for you! Okay here's my caption:

It's no wonder kids nowadays spend more time at the computer instead of out playing, if those are the kind of bumpy balls they are given to play with!

Is this a fake a or a real? Hmm I'll have to ask Sebastian.
