      If you're paying VAT on your purchases then it's "not at all", isn't it?

        Touché.

          Any plans for the Snowman prize money?

            Hiding it from the taxman would seem to be #1 priority, if only to avoid Guy's wrath.

              Just went up to see the situation. At first I thought I had missed it but there in the middle was a little bit of snow

              And here from very close up.

              It's 24° at the moment but it's 5pm so it will probably just about make it till tomorrow. I don't have the chance to go back out today so it will have to.

                  I was out in my yard picking up twigs and dumping bags of topsoil, sweating my ass off. But in one corner of the yard, there's still a snow pile.

                    Is that line from The Unforgettable Fire?

                      Is there anything the collective doesn't know?

                          There are consolation prizes for second and third, right? Like with kids' parties?

                          Comment


                            Technically everyone gets a prize a kids' parties. But yeah, I'm sure ad hoc will step up.

                              Assuming the date is tomorrow, then you would be 4th, I think (it's not like blackjack where going over busts you)

                                Going over has to bust you! That's the only way I'll finish in the top three.

                                  Yeah, derek's mixing up kid's parties with the Olympic Games here.


                                  It looks very much as though ursus is going to be our Snow Games gold medallist, anyway.

                                        Ah, you're ok. That's a relief.

                                          Lots of chemtrails over Transylvania those last few weeks, I’m told. By Roseanne.

                                            Cheers. Right outside my partner's flat, though.

                                                Yep, this has been great. I got worried looks when I tried to explain the snowman comp to someone from Out There. Fuck em Out There.

                                                  Mrs. S has been following with interest. Till my guess passed, clearly.

                                                    It's gone! I would like to hereby announce, as if we didn't already know, the fully deserved victory of Messrs Ursus Arctos. I am sure you will join me in toasting them all.

                                                    Now if the lead member of the collective would like to send me his address by PM I will see to it that a suitable prize (given the interests of the winner, I thought perhaps some piece of memorabilia of the Sport Klub Csikszereda Ice Hockey team - after a 4 year hiatus, recently crowned Romanian Champions again ) will be winging* it's way to him once I get round to it.

                                                    (*As the first part of its journey will be handled by the Romanian postal service, crawling would be a better verb)
