.................... No posts here for 12 days - and the winner is ????

Is it time to limit how long each Comp remains active ?

... or is it just a bit of fun and not worth the effort ?

It seems the competitions can get forgotten about for a-g-e-s ...

What does everyone think about limiting each Comp to 1 month - ending on the last day of the month ?

This would of course need the "winner" from the prvious month, to commit themselves to selecting a new winner at the end of the month ?

If you'd like to start it up again, post a photo and invite comments. A week or so seems to be about the right length of time before picking a winner.

OK - I should have read the opening message title "Captions Please!" - so it's not a "Competition" after all !

So here you go ......

It was after a group excursion to one of those trendy art galleries that the R'Heads embraced minimalism with gusto

Absolutely gutted, the paratrooper fell to earth after somebody had replaced his chute with a couple of lengths of plywood
