OK guys, I made the short list of a Twitter based writing competition - the entries are all brilliant so I'm just glad I made the list - but I thought my entry might appeal to the geeks amongst the forum...
Anybody who thinks my entry worthy of a vote - it would be much appreciated:

Alas, short-lived lead as I suspected would be the case...

Alas, they actually closed the comp at 10:15pm UK time, I'm not sure why the page is still accepting votes - but it's nice to know I would have won eventually!
Thank-you for voting for me though DS!

And all this happened while I was shuffling children around for sports practice. Sorry, maybe next time (somehow I suspect there will be a next time).

Then I was too late as well
Oh, well, it's the thought that counts...

Thank-you guys.
Yes, I too think there will be a next time!
They deliberately keep the voting to a very short time frame to stop, I guess, vote harvesting. (Although I clearly had a very good go!)

By the way: what were the conditions for the competition?
So, did I even vote for the most worthy entry?
