    Advantages Advantages Good Christmas Fun

    This is a challenge by thingywhatsit, where ten different people were asked for a word and that word had to be incorporated into a piece of work.

    Everything from 10 - 20 It is fair to say I like a challenge here on Ciao; it gives me a good excuse to use the grey matter and try to come up with something worth reading.

    Advantages Advantages The best ever.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages I could not get a white dot.

    This is a challenge by thingywhatsit, where ten different people were asked for a word and that word had to be incorporated into a piece of work. For full rules see thingywhatsits review of the same title. Basically, you need to get a word from each “dot” of different colours. The Gold “dots” are exempt from being asked for a word as there are only two on the site and it would be unfair to pester them with so many people that are joining in this challenge. You are allowed two “wildcards” to make up the ten colours, from the words you are given you have to make up a poem, story, review ... more

    Advantages Advantages Bonus CD-ROM/DVD features some contributers' OWN Single Releases - 2004 CHRISTMAS PRIZE CHALLENGE - A well rounded, inclusive approach

    Disadvantages Disadvantages It's gonna happen to you too , so snigger at your peril !

    This comes courtesy of the lovely and very funny Kerrith , and I've asked her if its okay for me to pinch it and use it as a challenge . If any of you can lay claim to being as old as , or , dare I say , even older than me , ( and if you are I'm amazed you're still capable of reading this , let alone typing or understanding the basic concept of the Internet ) I hope she will allow us all to add our own warnings on the cruelties of the aging process . So here goes . Admissions time ! 1) Last Summer I was working in my garden . It was a lovely quiet , sunny day , and the birds were singing . I ... more
