Nuts - I was beginning to think the same thing...

Since there were two runners up and in the spirit of the unorthodox, I suggest a sudden death play-off between LurkerBelow and Buster. Here's the image; max 3 entries each.




Best and finals by 17:00 GMT tomorrow, 24th December!! GOOD LUCK!

PS The appeals court has reviewed the evidence against Mend em and subsequently overrules the judge's sentence on grounds of diminished responsibility (the judge that is; he'd had too much wine) and hereby grants a full pardon: Mend Em - you are free to go

I know I'm not in the running - but can I have a go just for fun?

Due to the deepening security crisis somewhat tougher measures were required for those on Santa's naughty list.

Despondently and with a single hopeful glance, the rest of caption compers headed for an early bath.

Well, it was a very difficult decision (!!) with same great (illegitimate) last minute entries as well, but with only genuine one competitor, I'm proud and honoured to declare the winner: BUSTER HYMAN!!!

Congratulations and take it away Buster

In the meantime, I wish everyone a very peaceful Christmas and a safe and prosperous 2012
