I don't need any help with this one, but I've also entered another competition that is running in our local newspaper. We have lots of good competitions. So far all I've won though was a double pass to a rock revival concert, (gosh that was good), and a new swimming costume.

This one runs over 4 weeks, and the prize is a return trip for two, plus accomodation to the destination of the winner's choice...... London, Dubai, Paris or New York.

Paris was tempting and I just could not believe that Toad Hollow wasn't one of the choices, but I did write down New York on the entry form, and have to wait now until that competition closes before I start my packing.

I've decided you have to be in it to win it, and as we have no money to go to these places or purchase these goods, it's time to start entering competitions again.

One day I'm sure to strike it lucky, and if I did win anything good, you'd probably hear me from over the Pacific Ocean.

Default a haiku for a new setup

I think Haikus are quite clever, sometimes nonsensical but always good food for thought or in your case, establishment of immediate needs....five, seven five syllables.....

a system I need
finances a big problem
my lifeline to world

or the standard limerick.....

So there I am lamenting cash
when damnit! my computer crashed
I was feeling forlorn
then a contest was born
maybe I win new stash?

Haiku...
dreary day bereft
of my machine and outlook
how to cope without?

Limerick....
Life sucks when you can't communicate
makes you use curse words that relate to fornicate
computer crashed
oh egads
please correct this mistake?


Hope this kinda works? I was told this last minute by a friend and being somewhat sick today the old noggin sometimes don't work too good.
