dONE!! Used egyptian this time but now I suddenly regret not using something spanish Well, well

[Grandad]

Only a week till entries close so I am giving my usual nudge.

Food & Drink, a widest of topics so it would be good to see some more entries........if all else fails just take a picture of the Sunday roast.

Due to us having no internet for a week I was unable to start the voting process. I think we should rename this photo competition to Jan/Feb 2011 and keep it open for uploading photos.

Uploading will now end midnight 24th Feb 2011, voting will then start and end midnight 28th Feb 2011

A good idea Keefy

[Grandad]

Things have been somewhat overshadowed by other events of late; probably the understatement of the week.

Makes sense Keefy.

[DJKeefy]

3 days left if you have a photo to upload.

[DJKeefy]

I forgot to mention that the competition is open for voting, this will close on 28th Feb 2011 (midnight, Egyptian time)

[DJKeefy]

The top 5 winners are:

1st - Jo with Me and my Shadow (7)
2nd - Grandad with Salad Bar - Thai Style (6.2)
3rd - LovelyLadyLux with Street Treats! (5.75)
4th - Egyptophile with Jolie Ville Sunset classical music and drinks (5.4)
5th - who2 with My mate `Chris with 'pinky or perky (5.4)

So Jo picks the topic for March 2011, it doesn't just have to be confined to Egypt, as we're trying to widen the competition.

Wonderful picture Jo.

Where did you take it from? It looks to have been pretty high up.

[Grandad]

Well done Jo.....interesting picture from an interesting angle. :

And, Dydd Gwyl Dewi Dedwydd

And Jo, a simple subject title usually allows the widest interpretation.

A BIG WELL DONE to all other entrants.....keep it going in March

[Jo]

Thanks all,
Fran I seem to remember it was from the rooftop in snack time, was a few years ago when we were living there.

Ok I've had a think but if some has a better idea I'm happy for you not to go with mine.

Originally I was thinking after recent events something positive relating to the revolution would be good but then I realise this would limit the entries to Egypt and your wanting to broaden it out sooooo, being as it's st David's day today and I always see that as 'spring has sprung', and spring being symbolic of new growth and life I thought go with .....
' Spring 2011 - New beginnings'
This gives a bit of room for interpretation could be anything from a new born lamb, fresh snowdrops or a photo relating to a new Egypt. What do you think?

[Bearded Brian]

Good one Jo
