Ended up becoming a mod on the Adelbrits site. I used to post on there a bit but not for ages now. Last I heard she had given up that due to work committments. Was driving a taxi all hours of the day and night to make ends meet.

If anyone has any other information perhaps they could let us know.

I've regurgitated their threads and here goes for 2005.

Let's have nominations for the following categories, for 2005.

1) Funniest post
2) Funniest poster male
2a) Funniest poster female
3) Most opinionated poster
4) Most positive poster
5) Most pessimistic poster
6) Most intellectual poster
7)"Dark Horse"
8) Most predicatable poster
9) Most fanciable male (flesh or fantasy?)
10) Most fanciable female (flesh or fantasy?)
11) Most informative poster
12) Most pervy poster
13) Biggest anorak
14) Biggest "Aussie"
15) Jammiest 'land on your feet' poster
16) Lifetime Achievement Award (Expats)
17) Most pedantic poster (particular credit will be given to
Oxbridge candidates with a penchant for stats)
18) Nicest poster

The way it worked the last couple of years was that a nomination also counted as a vote. Therefore you can either vote by agreeing with someone else, or nominating someone new. If someone has a new category - pse add.Voting will start on that one too. Keep it clean, not too much flaming or abuse please.

Paul.

Am sure everything will go pear shaped now but hey, we've started off pretty well.
