The imaginary toilet paper crown might look a little more.. characterful these days, but at least the painted-on rubies are still attached. To this day we still don't know who the culprit was. It takes a high degree of Photoshop skills to pries the painted-on rubies without damaging them, but the thief couldn't find a fence. It was a high-profile crime and so those non-existent gems must've been too hot to handle. We were lucky that the were returned without the thief demanding a ransom.

There is no question about the toilet paper crown being imaginary. I have won it a few times. I have had a chance to see and feel it in its imaginary flesh. I have even worn it on my head. It is most definitely imaginary.

I have no idea how Erik Marcaigh managed to photograph it. My best guess would be that his imagination is so vivid he can take photographs of objects he can see in his mind's eye.

Well, see... I had to stick my hand inside Winnard's Hole... and there, deep in a crevice... rubies and all...

It's because of Simoof going on about the benefits of waiting for the Drabble show before voting.

This week is the first week I'll be able to follow it. The old laptop audio system was put together by a parrot with a heavy cold.

From now on I should be able to hear Psykokow's dulcet tones properly, and, perhaps unfortunately, various shouting people. I do hope it's not as bad as everybody seems to indicate ;)

Aah, but I'm back now. If there's one thing I am, it's 'back'. Thanks for an excellent rendering of my drabble and others, despite all the odds against you. You have the heart and soul of a true Scot, sir.

I don't know. He got to witness one of the more iconic performances of Listeri79's seminal cover of Postman Pat. That's not nothing... :rolleyes:

I didn't listen that far. My ears started bleeding and I felt sort of, well, queasy.

Auditions for The Great Anonymous Drabble Experiment draws to a close Everyone has had a fair chance to enter the contest. I'll put up the poll tonight, unless I hear any protests from anyone who is just about to enter. So if you've got a Drabble about "Democracy" and you want to see how it would do in a completely fair and level-playing-field contest then PM it to me today.

I'll leave the poll up a few days extra to try to get a few more folks to vote, I'll make it 5 days and standard 3 votes per person.
