    Default Christmas Banner Competition!

    We thought it might be a bit of fun to run a Competition in the run up to Christmas based upon the new Banner

    Bascially, you've got to try and identify as many of the records in the banner as you can.

    Here are the 'rules'

    • Answers are to be PM'd to me by the 24th December (Christmas Eve).
    • In the event of a tie, responses will be ranked in order of date / time PM recieved.
    • The judges' decision is final!

    Results will be announced on Boxing Day evening (26th December).

    There will be a prize (!!) What the prize will be is subject to the imagination of the Management team, and Marco's wallet. Think Raffle rather than Euromillions

    Go for it compadres!

    C'mon chaps! I can exclusively reveal that there is more than one prize, so if you're all looking at this thinking there's no way I could win if Andr'e has already replied, then you'd be wrong! I am told that there might even be a prize for a tie, so what are you waiting for? Get squinting at that banner, and PM me with your answers!

    Entries closed on Christmas eve, Chris! I needed to allow enough time for 'marking', just in case I wasn't feeling particularly clever over the festive season!
