Won anything?

Thanks, Joy the idea was mine, but the execution of it was down to Mr P !

I was trying to show the range of G'netters (politics, history science, I had hoped to include a book showing House & Home and include the wine, cake etc to try to cover the broad base that is Gransnet, however I think Mr P did a great job!

Well done Joy your design was great, although I think you could have replaced "O" (ordinary Gran) with perhaps "Outstanding Gran" Define "Ordinary"?!!!!

Are any of us "Ordinary"?

love it Joybloggs
well done

Well done, Joy - I'm really pleased that my favourite won.

Where is the news of the Tea Towel Competition - can't find anything about it on the front page, it's just completely disappeared

phoenix 'O' was a tricky one! 'Outstanding' would def have been better, but alas, too late now! As for the definition of 'Ordinary'... my dictionary says 'of the usual kind, undistinguished'... hmmm, this has got to be me, as I'm sure it doesn't apply to any other G'netters!

Flowerofthewest Thank you for kind words - much appreciated!

Phoenix. I don't possess any tea towels (another thread ) but I definitely liked yours.

Maggiemaybe Thank you for your message, much appreciated!

JoyBloggs I liked yours too, congrats! . In fact it was hard to choose between the front runners ...

Thank you. I had an email on November 1st saying I'd won the book 'Quiet' but nothing arrived so far. Should I just be more patient?

Aka I am still waiting to win

It's a lottery Flower. So many winners are names I've never heard of, have you noticed that?

It sometimes takes ages for a book to come through. I thought When the Mountains Echoed would never arrive.

I got the set of Penny Dreadful books I've won on Friday, they are perfect for my granddaughter thanks so much..

I agree Aka , I think there must be some "members" who just enter the competitions, which seems a shame. When I look back at the OP on this thread, it makes me remember that I have been here since the beginning!

Guessed that Aka, just kidding. I live in hope.

Gransnet has thousands of members you'll rarely hear of. I know a couple myself who will never post on discussion forums because it's not their sort of thing, but they still enjoy logging on to see what others have written or looking for tips and information. And of course, entering the competitions! Congratulations to all winners.

Thank you, grannyknot, a pity they couldn't print all of the short-listed tea towel designs - the others all appealed to me for different reasons and I would have liked one of each.

Thank you, again. My copy of 'Quiet' has just arrived in the post.

You lucky tigger - congratulations, what a prize! Not that the CD cd wouldn't have been nice as well, of course.

COPPAS ...has anyone tried to enter this competition? After you've gone to the bother of writing out your recipe and filling in your details it adds you to supply an http:// address for the recipe.

How on earth is that supposed to work?

I was also a bit confused, so I copied the url of my recipe page and pasted it in the box. I am sure that didn't actually work as a link though. I am not great on technology so let's hope someone comes up with the solution.
