Top Gear's on in a sec so I'll watch that first so you have another hour of guessing and deciding.

Back in a bit TTFN

 

[nuggets]

you rat

 

[munkiboi182]

is there an extended version of top gear on a different channel???

 

[Biker]

Well folks, cometh the hour cometh the result. Good episode of Top gear though, sad about Saab, I hadn't realised they'd closed down. Always loved the 900, don't know why really, it just looked... nice.

Anyway enough blathering. The number I had written down wasn't based on my birthyear, nor the year France got it's butt kicked at Waterloo, nor the year that Debbie Harry came to my then 17 year old attention and willfully captured my heart. What the number was was based on the cylinder capacity as written on the door of the racy Mini Clubman GT.

Yup, it was 1275.


Almost from the outset we had a close answer with 1273, then late Friday night Harvestman stepped in and pipped Pauljm116 at the post. Commiserations to Paul, you were so close, but huge congrats to the winner Harvestman!!

Drop me a PM mate with your address and choice of what you'd like, the Flexcut spoon knife or a T shirt of your choice from the gallery as linked in the first posting. (Choose the preferred size/colour too). Incidently I added two new T shirt designs last night, been dabbling with colours in my drawings again, rather pleased at the results too.

So once again Harvestman's the winner and thanks to you all for taking part, chuffed so many of you took the time to have a go, again sincere commiserations to Pauljm116. Better luck next time mate.

And on that bombshell....

 

[mikeybear]

He's probably watching it at half speed , on "pause live tv" , just to add to the suspence

Sorry folks, her on the sofa needed another cuppa and then I had some PMs to deal with here. Anyway all sorted and posted. See above

 

[pauljm116]

So close but yet so far! Congrats to Harvestman and thanks for the comp Biker.

 

[malente]

congrats Harvestman. 1275 would have been my second guess, naturally

You're welcome Paul, glad you've taken being pipped so well. Me I'd want to hunt down Harvestman and make his intrails out-trails

congrats Harvestman. 1275 would have been my second guess, naturally

Oddly enough that exactly the same with me with number related comps, weird huh?

Still waiting on that PM from Harvestman, I wonder if he's still slumped over his keyboard from last night having collapsed in shock at winning something?

 

[Harvestman]

You must have made a mistake. I never win things.

Good grief, I'm astonished.

I'm currently sitting at home feeling dreadful, having just called in sick to work and got told off for it. So you have brightened my day. For the most part my entrails are making a bid for freedom on their own

I'll have the flexcut please.

Many many thanks for a great comp. :You_Rock_

 

[blacktimberwolf]

Well done Harvestman.....& get well soon.

 

[bushcraftmyway]

congrats, harvestman!

i was about to say 1275...

 

[Harvestman]

Flexcut knife arrived safe and sound today. Very pleased - just the right tool to finish a bowl I've been hacking at, sorry, carving.

Many many thanks again
