Guess the socks - win a bell contest.
Okay, those of you who don't have an over-active spam filter may be aware that the latest Bear Bones News email featured a competition. All you had to do was email and tell me what colour socks I had on. The names of those guessing correctly would be placed into a hat and a lucky winner would recieve a rather nice Timber bell.
Mildly surprised that less than 20 people bothered to enter and utterly stunned that only 3 people actually guessed correctly - although thanks to those folk who believe I'm weird enough to wear purple and orange socks and kinky enough to sport lace hold-ups.
Anyway, the correct answer was BLACK and the first name out of the hat was, Matt 'bunnyhop' Harvey ... well done sir, a new bell on the way.

Easiest thing to do is go and sign up again - if you do it yourself, it shouldn't hit the spam filter.

I wonder of it was the big letters that said - WIN SUMMAT that people found confusing?

I never got the newsletter (although it says my email is already signed up) and it is not in my spam either.

Well, didn't want to encourage you incase the next competition was "What colour undercrackers am I wearing?"

And the mental imagery when it turns out the answer was 'none'....
