Hats off to Santa Claus, Mrs. Brady, and... Your Mom  :D

Congrats to Agrimorfee for your second SOTM gold medal - in fact I'm taking the kids snow-skiing tomorrow and the white stuff is a little sparse on the mountain, so I'm sure they'll all be singing your parody the whole journey up - the kids just love Bob Dylan's quirky metre :-\\

and congrats also to that witty eagle-eyed denizen of kinky suburbia, Kristof

and thanks for my votes everyone

see youse all (back) in August :)

I got 6th? 6TH?! WHo saw that one coming? W00tness for me!

Oh, and congrats to Kristof, Stu and Agrimorfee of course ;)

I'm getting this sense of deja vu... congrats Agri, Stu & Kristof :D

Congrats Agri, Stu and Kris!!! :D

Oh, and on a side note, the winners list hasn't been updated since the April SOTM. Think we ought to give Claude a little poke? ;)

A belated thank you to all who voted my mom into bronze.....she'll be so happy!  :o

Big congrats to Messrs McArthur and Morfee....brilliant work, chaps!!

Congrats Agri, Stu and Kris!!! :D

thanks Cat

and re the winners list, as much as I'd like to be seen as the last ever SOTM winner by the universe, alas it isn't the case and the winners list does need updating.

However Claude doesn't visit these shores much and understandably has lost interest in the SOTMs (despite his much-decorated history in them), so it's too much to expect him to revisit us each month to update our list for us.

Solution: I will copy and paste the winners list into a new thread that I'll start and then ask Chucky to redirect the link to the new thread (with Claude's permision of course, but he's indicated to me recently that that wouldn't be a problem).

Watch this (er that) space.

I am working on the website version of this list (It is actually already built and live BUT I'm still entering all the old info as it is far more inclusive than the thread was. . .)  I will keep you all updated on said status of the site as requested by Stu. . .

thanks Dave - looking forward to seeing that, and I'll post a link to that website from the SOTM winners list thread which I am currently reworking and posting

Congrats to Aggy, Stu and Kristof. And to everyone else. It's been a pleasure.

I don't like the "finality" sound of that, Jack - you're not pulling out of entering the SOTMs are you?
???

Ah, that's great!

But you don't suppose you should make it a sticky thread so it doesn't drift away?

I believe Jack (Red Ant) can still do that, he is who made my organizing thread sticky.

Done. And great work to Stu for finding it again and doing the updates (all the links work now as well). And to Claude for keeping it up for so long.

Stu, I'll PM ya.

I soon discovered that one of the reasons Claude may have given up on it was that the thread had reached its 3000 word limit.  That's why I had to post it up as 4 posts on the 1 thread (it took me back to the "Pirates Who Penstanzas" days) - which still gives the same effect.

Each year I'll rethread it so the current year's results are always the first post.

Actually, it's a 30,000 word limit. I can't believe that was reached, but the links might have done it. It looks better separated by year anyway, IMO.

Well the new website is coming along VERY well. . .The hardest months (Jan-Mar 04) are entered, doing April now. . .

WOO WOO!

Thank you all for your votes!

Congrats to my podium-sharers!
