Van

Thanks Webbo, that was fun - managed to write my 100 words in about 5 minutes while attempting to cook lunch for two hungry children, so don't think I'll be winning any prizes, but any opportunity to sneak a bit of writing in on school holidays is welcome!

Baggy Books

Thanks Webbo!

St Force

Cheers Webbo. Don't think I'll win anything but you never know.

Webbo

And it's running every day until next week so there's a bit more potential...

Hope I win it. That old tabard of mine is getting terrible worn.

Hope they present me with this one, as it matches colour of my eyes.

The winning entry is there - don't think it's a Talkbacker's.

Liked your stories Van, Baggy and ST F (hope I read the right entry).

Jay Mandal

Time to submit today's entry!

Presumably more and more people will enter as the days go by.

boredrobots

Aww, I didn't win. Must have a go at today's comp as well.

Jay Mandal

Sorry, BR - must have missed your entry. I didn't mean to imply that I didn't like it! :)

Jay Mandal

You can start writing the other entries, too - the pictures are shown online, although what they'll say may affect what you write.

boredrobots

It's under my real name (Steven Chapman), Jay. Didn't think anyone would recognise it ;D

Right, I'm gonna check out todays picture.

Jay Mandal

Brilliant, BR!

Jay Mandal

Some people are very prolific (if that's not tautology).

I suppose it is, but 'some people are prolific' sounds a bit like a line from a See Spot Run book :p

Anna

Had a go at today's. ("That was then, but this is now")

Yes, some people have entered loads!

Anna

Dunno where that face came from..... I only touched a bracket key.

Jay Mandal

The winner's been announced.

Jay Mandal

Liz, today's is crying out for you! (And for any other cat lovers/haters.)

Jay Mandal

Nearly time to post your submission!

Jay Mandal

Today's winning entry is shown.

Jay Mandal

You still have next Monday and Tuesday's pictures to write a story about.

Spot the deliberate mistake:

"... we'll be asking a successfull author Helen Walsh to pick an overall winner."

Have entered today's competition, but if the volume, from 10.30am, is anything to go by there's a helluva lot of entries.

Jay Mandal

Best of luck!

Didn't win folks, and in view of the shark attack, thought I was in with a chance as...read mine: published about 10.39, with the title 'The Numbers Game.' Still I did count 174 entries, which must have been the largest, as I think the day before was less than 40. I note there is yet another Munchbunch competition, so will have a go at that.
