As I say don't for one minute think that the usual suspects ran away with this, there were tons of votes for loads of you and some awesome names came up

Well done all of you and heres to a good years posting with polls being done at the end of this year the same way as the lounges so we can see whos winning and exactly how has been nominated

I'd like to acknowledge my Mom & my Pops: I couldn't have done it without them, even though the selfish old gits never emigrated for the sake of the children, they were always there for me. Except when they weren't.

And, yes, I wish for World Peace and Love in the Hearts of EveryOne.

P.S. I don't do afternoon tea at the Ritz or anywhere else.

Can I go on the gin-binge instead?

Well how lovely, world peace would be lovely.

I'm ready for afternoon tea at the Ritz followed by a gin soaked binge and a nap. Can the bed be ast the Ritz?

That's all well and good, young lady, but now's the time to do some data mining and spill the beans on "who fancies who?"

I'd like to thank Google for all the helpful links they provide that have enabled me to give information and win this most prestigeous award, without them I could never have done it.

Thanks for the nominations, I'm very suprised and grateful - though there are plenty of others who deserve it equally.

Yeah cos this is really one of those kind of forums lol. Its all in good fun. Hell I voted for novo and I dont even know what he looks like

Congrats MMC, most beddable bird on BE

Did ya see we won mugs? MUGS!! Yay!

Congrats to you both.

Only because, like any respectable establishment, you are barred from the Ritz.

*blushes* So, if I read that correctly, Mands, Bats and I would be the hottest BE threesome EVAH? yes?

Only, Dear Lady, in the twisted and fevered imagination of yer average Maple Leafer.

hahaha!!
