...and advance to go.


Well at least I got 3rd prize in this month's Sprint...b'stards, why not first!!! Its a conspiricy against S's I tell you...

By the way, there is something else I sent to them to print, but it looks like it will not be until next month...Perhaps they will make it up to me then.

May the Force be with you wink

Well done Andy, always nice to see an S win a prize.smile
Presumably this month's first prize was a huge medallion!

Looking forward to Sept Sprint already, to relive those heady sunfilled days of unadulterated pleasure. drivingbeer

I feel sorry for those who missed it, it will be a hard act to follow.
The sequels are rarely as good as Episode III.
Will next year's theme be "Attack of the Colons"?

Gents,
I'm lucky enough to have read Andy's first version and it is, quite simply, a brilliant piece. Can't wait to see it in print surrounded by some great photo's smile

If you are referring to our glorious Olympics, shame on you!

The last Olympic gold medal that was actually made from gold was awarded in 1912. So, if Olympic gold medals aren't gold, then what are they? The specific composition and design of Olympic medals is determined by the host city's organizing committee. However, certain standards must be maintained:

•Gold and silver medals are 92.5% silver.

•Gold medals must be plated with at least 6 grams of gold.

•All Olympic medals must be at least 3 mm thick and at least 60 mm in diameter.

Bronze medals are bronze, an alloy of copper and usually tin.

ALL medals are priceless.
