Yeah. Gutted to be on the losing side again Clive, but Crabs played a blinder and there was no coming back from yer Edmonds lion eats Lloyds horse. Fair kudos there and no mistake.
Fair kudos also to selectivememory who has this thing running like a well oiled machine now. Sure there was the odd bit of controversy, but very little tardiness or absenteeism (the WimbleWrong equivalent to simulation in football... or possibly spitting IMHO).
A-and well played everyone who took part - putting your skill and imagination out there for fellow CABers to judge. There were some truly stunning and inspiring shots.
But once again it was the voters who let the side down I think. For everyone who did vote for me, well done, you did the right thing and you can sleep tonight with a clear conscience. You all also managed to vote in the right thread on the first try - great stuff. To everyone else, well, what can I say? Christ in shitty napkins I think I let at least one of you buy me a drink at the last CAB meet (I even offered to buy another one of you a pint when I saw you already had a full glass in front of you) and yet this is how you repay me. Fuck off and die. The lot of you. I suspect Crabwalk is deeply ashamed to have received votes from the likes of you. Really. I'm relieved I lost. Better that than have you scum on my side. Fucked if I'm going through this shit again next year. State of this.
As a coda to this reasoned and balanced review here's a portion of my aborted 3rd shot. It seems appropriate:
