I destroyed my spine (again) on June 29th - but I'm just about up and about again, so I'll get in touch with Rosemary to see about selecting those winners soon!

[doganjo]

Good grief, what have you done now - cycling, running, or weightlifting???

[cmorrell]

It's usually a combination of things... but in this case it was a jazz gig. Seats were appallingly bad.

[doganjo]

In case anyone is wondering, I have reminded Rosemary she has to choose her winners, then consult with Calum to agree their final choice.   Perhaps Dan would be kind enough to annouce them in this thread.  The overall winner will have pride of place on the cover page of the Central Scotland Smallholders 2012 calendar which I will be able to start on when the decisions have been made, the other six category winners and runenrs up will have a month each, and I will prepare an editorial page to say that these photographs raised a sum of £320 including the Gift Aid Tax credits.
If Dan and Rosemary would like a TAS advert on the back page, I'm happy to do that and I'll also add the link to our Just Giving page in case anyone else wishes to add to that magificent total.  Can I just say a big thank you to you all who supported the idea by donating and submitting photos.  And to everyone else, we'll perhaps choose another charity next year and do the same - so get snapping now!

Have lots of really cute photos ready to enter for the next competition already  though I think I'll have to change my bank first, as the site won't allow me to use my Electron card to even make a donation 

[doganjo]

Results coming soon!

Calum and Rosemary have agreed on their choices for winners, runners up, and best overall.  Thanks to both of you, I hope you both enjoyed the task.

They will be posted on here later today or tomorrow, when Dan has tiime, and thanks again to everyone who donated their hard earned cash!  every little helps, as they say!

Hiding in the daffodils! 

Congratulations to the winners, and many, many thanks to all who entered and donated so generously to the two causes.

We raised £125 for Shelterbox Just Giving, and more for the Christchurch appeal.

Excellent choices    What a lovely set of photos and what a lot of talent out there.

[CameronS]

Well done shearling !! just realised you were the overall winner 

[doganjo]

I reckon all in all with gift aid added the total probably comes to about £300 over the two charities.  Mine was hidden and I know there was a fairly big donation sent to the New Zealand appeal.
