Category 4: Most Useful Poster

Dates: 21-28 August

Who To Contact: Car Expert
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/jumpin.gif)


You can now start voting for category 4: Most Useful Poster. You can PM/email me with up to ten votes as to which member(s) you think is/are the most useful poster(s). Remember to rank your nominees in order of preference if voting for more than one person so I know how many points to give them. The person for whom you give 1st place to will get 10 points, regardless of how many other people you vote for. Remember you cannot vote for yourself, and only those members who have posted since July 31st 2010 are eligible to receive votes.

I will publish periodic league tables in this thread to give everyone an idea of how things stand (providing I receive enough votes to do so). A final league table will be posted on this thread when the voting lines close at 2130 BST on Sunday 28th August, when the winner will be announced depending on who's top of the league table at the end of the week. The voting lines will also open for the next category - Best Profile Photo.

For more details on the awards, see the main awards thread.

Good heavens - some people seem to be kind enough to think I have my uses! I thought only the cats held that opinion - and then only at feeding time - and then only if I have remembered to defrost the prawns!

Just went to the Adult Education Centre to pay for a course I'm continuing with next term. It's been somewhat of a nightmare sorting it out (hence the personal visit) and I was horrified when the lady behind the desk assured me that there was no record of my credits to date, the fees I had already paid, my name, or even the course itself when she typed my code onto the computer.

Turned out the piece of paper I had given her had the course code and my online user name on one side but an abbreviated list of my voting choices for 'most useful' on the other. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif)

I did suggest "least sensible" last year (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

So, next year, "most useless", "least sensible", "most insensible", "least useful", all up for grabs??

p.s. thanks for my votes.
