Excellent. You can announce the winner at the weekend, you know, with suitable dramatic tension.

Cool! I'll even make myself exempt from the competition, to indicate that the decision might actually be a fair one. Besides, I already have original Beau Peep artwork - I even drew it.

Closing time for entries, 11.59pm GMT (er...if that's what we're on at the moment), November 30th. I may need a Day Of Deliberation, Contemplation and Meditation in order to do this properly, so the winner will probably be crowned on Sunday.

The judges decision will be final, and no correspondence shall be entered into (that means no begging letters, Peter).

Good luck!

What you mean is that your entry was crap.

This means he's going to get drunk and pick one out of a hat.


The judges decision will be final

Where's the apostrophe?

Shall we have an official presentation? Maybe at a Working Men's Club in Dundee, or something. Be sure to have it on a day when I'm free.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

Bit of a long way for the winner to travel, isn't it?

Knowing you, I'd say that was a certainty.

We want a detailed analysis on why you chose the winner, what was good about the poem, why it was better than the rest, what was lacking in the others, why you missed the apostrophe, and how drunk you got.

I'm not one of your friggin' students, and I'm not doing a friggin' essay. You're obviously a very worried man.

It'll be the one I like best. End of!

He likes the prestige but is unwilling to do any of the work.
