All the way from my allotment in beautiful Derbyshire. I'm in year 3 of my allotment and wish I'd caught the bug years ago, things growing from strength to strength

Observation - Some of the captions have 'adwords'

Comment - this may make some captions stand out, or make voters prejudiced against them because they hate adwords so much.

Suggestion - Would suggest that in future caption competitions that adwords are disabled from the 'ballot paper' so that all captions appear equal.

Not technically possible as far as I know SS. 

Individuals can dissable them on their own computer though.

It's only a game anyway.   :)
