Now, what on earth do we do with these ties? I vote that we put them to a separate poll and whoever wins that one is the winner.....

Can't decide whether to be flattered that I was at least nominated in a few categories ... or slightly insulted that the one category in which I tied for a win was one in which I should not have been eligible.......

You guys are awesome.

I'm very glad Ultrarunner won. He and Dboy are very much missed.

Sudden death.

Being the gentleman that I am I shall withdraw from the gin-soaked binge and wish Mandy much happiness.

As to tea at the Ritz, do I have to invite all of the thousands who voted for me?

But how will either of them ever find out?

I don't think ultra is actually banned anymore as when you visit his profile it doesn't read "banned". He was probably on a temp ban and just didn't come back. http://britishexpats.com/forum/membe...runner-156356/

My Marmite-loving heart is broken.

By the way, it's been a while, but I'm glad your name is more memorable and pronounceable Mr Gozit. Still aiming for Malta?

Yowzers. Well done all winners, and you're all welcome in my bed anytime.

I would like to donate my prize to Greenhill, whose post on this thread in support of me was genuinely the funniest thing I've read in a long time
