WHO LIVES IN A HOUSE LIKE THIS?

Lillie · Post by **Lillie** » Sat Sep 09, 2006 8:59 pm

ROLL UP! ROLL UP! IT'S COMPETITION TIME!

I know we tried to run this competition before and there didn't seem to be much interest the last time. But there has been a huge influx of new members since then, so Poops and I thought it would be a good idea to see if we can get more interest this time

The competition will be called "WHO LIVES IN A HOUSE LIKE THIS?"

All you will need to do is take a photo of the front or back of your house and write a little cryptic note to go with the photo, and everyone has to guess who's house it is! Any kids who want to enter should get their parent's permission of course

Poops has kindly agreed to host the photo's on a private website and only the people that enter the competion will have access to the address. So no need to worry that the whole WWW will have acces - they won't.

One point will be awarded for each correct guess and the winner will be the person with the most correct guesses. Lemon squeezy

OK - who is interested? Just post on here please if you are. Don't go posting any photo's yet! If we have enough interest, further details of where and how to send your photo's will be given out at that time!

I'm in obviously although I probably won't be guessing cus I'll already know.

I better get some tidying done, I don't want you all to see what a hovel I live in.

Gawd knows how I'm going to make it look like there could only be me that lives there.

)

I understood this to mean the OUTSIDE, Lillie Billie, please correct me if I'm wrong.

OHHHH this is going to be SOOO fun

Well that's ten people so far - looking good

I'll leave this to run for about a week for people that may not have seen it yet!

Patrick - maybe you could enter too - you could take a snap of your office? Give us a little nosey in through your keyhole?

Great to have you in Janet (love the avatar of the new arrival!) - and everyone else too

Outside photo would probably be best Kazzie - we could always do another comp at a later date with inside shots of where everyone plays Wonderland?

In the meantime - get snapping everyone

Poopsy, you can take part

A few people have already seen my house, so I should be the one to step out. If we get people to send the photo's and cryptic notes to me - I can then forward them to you so you won't know where or whom they came from! Perfect idea!

Hey Lillie Billie, I got my bush trimmed this weekend & I'm already for the Photo Shoot when is this contest going to start

popo · Post by **popo** » Mon Sep 18, 2006 3:51 pm

I trimmed my bush too....and now it looks worse than it did before....you know that 'just had a fight with a lawn mower' look. Bald patches all over the place. Might have to do a bit of touch up in Paint Shop.......

.....or take a photo of someone else's house....

Oh... Pauline that's too funny,

I walk around my neighborhood 4-5 times everynight, belive me when I tell you I've been checking out the neighbors houses to see if I like one better than mine. .... So far NOT, although there is one with a big fountain that sortof appeals to me.

Sorry folks - it's been a madhose at Chez Lillie's the last few days! Thank goodness the photo's are external and not from indoors - this place is minging with plaster dust

If it is OK with everyone - can we let it run till this weekend please. I know a couple of people who still might want to join in, but have other commitments at the moment!

As soon as you have your photo's and clue ready - please feel free to send it to me (please email it - those who don't have my email address, please pm me for it) and Poppsie and I can start cutting and pasting your nice trimmed bushes onto the website

Get ya strimmers out
