Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments Hello! Just reminding everyone that I haven't forgotten about the writing contests (ok maybe I did a little) I thought next Wednesday would be a good date to start the next one as it keeps it neatly as 1 contest per month.

I can't even remember who won the last one but I need you to pm me a theme for this one, there's still a £5 amazon voucher for the winner!

Marc Nash (sulci) | 4313 comments think it was BJ


message 3: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I thought so too


message 4: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I'm a day late but here goes;

We've got a racy theme this month so no minors!

200 words on 'Is reading better than sex?'

£5 amazon voucher to the winner!

Please PM your entry to me and I'll post them all together in 2 weeks time, so the deadline is 14th November :o)

message 19: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments Oh, I'm going to write this today. My husband always reckons he never knows what I'm going to say next. I wonder if he can guess what I'm going to write? :)

David Staniforth (davidstaniforth) | 7935 comments I'm working on my entry, but not wanting to rush it, I'm going for a tantric approach and avoiding touching the keyboard until the very last moment.

Its difficult to tell, I've only been to Reading once, and I think it was shut.

I had two entries planned and had to write one to enter this contest. Luckily, I chose against the one that made a joke of whether the place, Reading, is better than sex. If I had chosen that one to submit, you would have been in trouble, David!! ;)

Victoria Pearson | 259 comments This thread is hilarious, I can't wait to read these :~)

I haven't been to Reading much, but I've spent most of my life in trouble.

Nicola Palmer | 255 comments I know someone with the surname Reading. I won't tell him about this, he might lower the tone ;)


message 35: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments HE might? :-)

Never mind reading; you should be entering.

message 41: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments Many contestants? Or has BJ stumped us?


message 42: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Pearson | 259 comments omigoshwas this topic put forward by someone called BJ? This just keeps getting better :~D


message 43: by Jonathan (new)

Jonathan Hill | 1599 comments I submitted my entry earlier this week. Somehow I suspect we'll get quite a few voters for this one!


message 44: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments It's hard to ask a question about this one without everyone subsiding into school-boy sniggers!


message 45: by David (new)

David Staniforth (davidstaniforth) | 7935 comments I've... erm, been playing with my entry for a while. It's now suitable for public viewing, and has been submitted.

Yep, it was only a sense of propriety that made me forgo making that observation explicit :-)

That was my hope, Jonathan - but they'll need lots of entries to read. With a bit of luck the initially slow movement will build to a climax by Wednesday.

message 49: by Kath (new)

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments And they'll all come together? ;)
