Hehe, I thought Chris' shot would get a double take before full realisation!

Ah cool, thanks mate, is my article in there? Should be Deal in the snow.

What other goodies did you get in the bag?

The Dovecote by vmlopes, on Flickr

Ah.. I looked at this the second time and I know where this is now. It's pretty close to Sulham woods outside Pangbourne, isn't it? I remember cycling along that way many years ago.

It's up behind the big Sainsburys by the m4 junction 12..

Yeah, but it used to be Savacentre back in my day. I think it's more of a folly than a dovecote though, but could well be totally wrong.

Ah, of course. It's "Flint's Folly"

Which is, indeed a dovecote.

Well, I'm learning something I never knew. No clue about it's history though.

Mike, you got two pages just about you@ sandwich. Moss rose pic across both pages plus ice cream pic.

Mike,I've taken photo of the mag

I'm back now too

I also gave a nudge about the Chernobyl article to the editor to DSLR user while i was there too, so something may happen.

good work Neal

So what were the actual prizes given out then? There seems have either been a balls up or just mass confusion?!

they gave out awards for the following

the club with the highest scoring round in the last nine (The DAPA team got 42 out of 45 for the black and white round.)

The best picture in the entire comp ( one of Great notleys photos taken by Mark Edwards from the black and white round)

the overall winning team (Great notley) who also got presented a £3,000 cheque. I'm guessing everything else they will send in the post.

Edit

Reading the thing in the magazine, looks like weve won squat in that it's worded "The best overall monthly entry of them all will also win a £1000 voucher" next to a "win £5000 of Canon Kit" making sense in that it mean DAPA got £1,000 and overall Great Notley won £4,000 and we got squat
