Caption Competition V

CLOSED:
WINNER:

1st November 2003
Le Tache


Noone is really sure who he is, but nevertheless, universal vote around the committee table declared Le Tache had cornered the fifth incarnation of the Tonsley Events Caption Competition.

The apt wit of his entry, "In 1942, the RAF bombing of Germany became so fierce that even the pigs were issued with helmets", has secured the Sony Playstation and this has been donated to a child without one!

Thanks for your entries folks. Perhaps the next competition will take a slightly different slant... watch this space.

< A victorious moment for competition winner, Le Tache.


Just when you think you've worn out the whole Caption Competition thing, someone comes along and feeds your camera with another bout of the ridiculous.

This time, we have a brand spanking Sony Playstation up for grabs! And if that's not enough, we've got a selection of games to chuck in too to help you wind away those winter evenings when the weather keeps you in and all the BBC can muster is another Morse repeat.

You know how it works...enter your imaginative/witty/sympathetic captions below - you've nothing to lose!

 

Ed and Woolfy
Ed
Woolfy
 
 
Some of the best:
 
Now living together, Simon was not adverse to Ed taking a firm grip of his weapon.
(Rob Bruce)
 
After years of childhood bullying, Ed was delighted he could still convince his stupid friend to choose the bottle, helmet and tin shield over the gun.
(Flash Frankie)
 
As no trains had passed through for nearly an hour, Ed decided he'd have to use his gun to kill this irritating bastard.
(Floody)
 
Following years of inactivity, Woolfy finally got to use his helmet.
(Jerry)

Caption Competition III)
 
Ed smiled wryly as he realized Woolfy was not going to play hide the helmet after all.

You Stupid Boy!!!

In 1942, the RAF bombing of Germany became so fierce that even the pigs were issued with helmets.

Caption Competition I)
 
There was no doubting, it certainly was a fine weapon that Ed possessed, thought Woolfy. For years he'd always wondered why Ed had walked with a pronounced limp.
(Duncan)
 
Woolfy always enjoyed Ed's Harry Enfield impression
(Duncan)
 
Realising that the 5.46 C56797 Thunderbird Drag train to Shepton Mallet had been delayed, Ed and Woolfy, two highly respected members of the Trowbridge Dungeons and Dragons society, briefly discarded their anoraks and filled the time by immersing themselves in their other passion for battle re-enactment.
