Can I have a prize for the lowest score please !!! xx

[Christiana]

Will put it in the post tomorrow but it will take longer from Portugal. I have some English stamps here, and will use my U.K address for you to send back to. It will then get forwarded to me (Spending most of the time abroad can get quite complicated).
Hope you get lots of entries.

[NILYA]

Thanks, Pauline. I had already prepared my cheque and envelope, before reading your challenge!!

[paulineward]
