Post of the Week #25
Previous Winners : Feed
July 9th, 2007

This week’s winning post was determined by a battery of four judges, as after the usual 3 the totals were still too close to call! And after all that fuss, the winner is:

Little Red Boat: Hard life in the low rises. Of Hassocks.

“Is this the last gardening carriage? I fishing thought there were more mothergolfing carriages than this.”
“Nah, this is it.”
Michael Parkinson HELL.”
“There are no Crazy paving seats, for sunbed’s sake. There’s only a John Lewis Wedding Listing First Class section, and we can’t sit in there, because apparently, we’re not first class net curtaining citizens. Pass me another can of troweling Stella, will you?”

Our judges said:

“It’s rare that something gets an honest to goodness laugh out loud from me, and this piece did.”
“Being clever and being funny don’t always intersect. This begs to be read aloud.”

    Oooh. Blimey. Thanks very much.

    I’d like to thank the judges; My Mother; Katy for nominating me; the Academy; all the people who told me off for swearing last week; God, obviously; and my local chav community, for being such a boundless mass of inspiration to me.
