Duke - I'll put up my hand to fill in for you if people will forgive the time difference. Also, I've never created a playlist on YouTube before but I am reistered with them and I'm sure there's a YouTube clip to guide me. Just let me know exactly when to take over.

Just a quick note, Val has offered to cover for me from tonight, many thanks Val, so i'll see you all in a couple of weeks time.

[Val]

Cue music from My Fair Lady : By George, I think she's got it!!!

So I've compiled my very first playlist - couldn't have done it without Duke's lovely detailed instruction and I'll probably have forgotten everything by next week - BUT, I think it's here and hopefully working.

Fifteen nominations this round means we have FIVE votes each and I hope my nom features very well in your votes as a thanks to me for acquiring this new skill!!!!!

So let's be having you. I think voting closes at 10.00pm Sunday but you might get a bit of leeway because of the time difference. I shall be back next Monday about this time to tally up the votes.

Right, the witching hour has past and the wrap-up is we had 11 voters for our 16 nominations and the clear winner was that man Duke (blissfully unaware on his hols) who scored 25 points for Mikis Theodorakis and Zorba's Dance. I was rewarded with the silver gong with 19 points for My Friend The Chocolate Cake (thanks folks) and there's a tie for third spot with 17 points each - KJS (Lee Perry & The Heptones) and Sussex (Rush). No wooden spoons to dole out. Thank you everyone and I shall return anon with the next theme.
