Now here's a contest worth voting for!

Well, at least if you would be so kind to vote for me, that is! ;) TalkTalk Tales is the contest, and it's about reading an excerpt from a well-known and loved children's book, or as they put it: "Our nationwide hunt for Britain's best amateur storyteller." I started by reading all the excerpts aloud to myself, and then chose the one I found most fun to read. It so happened to be Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. (I wasn't confident enough in my pirate singing.) Anyway, you can go and have a listen to my entry, and if you like it, please vote generously. :)

Crowning best torso of 2009

Speaking of Heat magazine, I did find something else that seemed interesting. I thought it was a top list of hottest torsos but it wasn't. It's a reader competition: The Heat Readers' Torso 2009 . Send in a piccy of (as they say in this country) a well fit bloke with his top off. He has to be holding a copy of the magazine in question... and of course, you have to have his permission. ;) I wonder if they'll accept a photoshopped piccy of Lucas North or Guy of Gisborne... EDIT: Here are the finalists...
