Here's the start of a new thread with a nicely completed message ;) Martin Atkins wrote: OK, here's my idea. Whether or not anyone takes it up remains to be seen of course! The idea is this. Throughout December (from 1st to 24th) I will endeavour to post one Christmas related picture a day in a kind 'Advent Calendar' type thing. What I need is that people should pick a day from the list below and put their name onto it. (I`m hoping the thread doesn`t get totally screwed up and have more than one person on a day, but if this happens I will have to operate a first-come-first-serve system and relocate anyone else onto adjacent days. After you have added your name to my list, send me an email containing your picture for the day (so that it is a surprise!) and I will put your pic up on or near the day concerned (my news feed may cause a delay on some of them, and I also may post a few on one day ... but I will try to remain as close as possible) along with some other christmas related object (christmas carol or something). Here's the list. Only one day per person to start off with please, but if there is a slow uptake then someone can grab some extra spaces!) Since the list isn't filling up very fast, I'll also take the first *unless anybody else wants it*. We really need to fill up the first few days before anything... after all, that's only five days away now... Everyone, you know you can do it - join up! Looking back in the thread I also notice that this list is missing David Palmer's claim on the 2nd - I added it... ---- Here's the list.
