Many congratulations to the winners of the York City Rowing Club's Flood Caption Competition

This was the picture

We had so many entries that we decided to break the competition down into two sections - " The whole world "  and " Our own club " .  This made sense because, as you can imagine in a club like ours with a great team spirit, many members could not resist the temptation to have a "leg pull" on other members !!

The winners ( in traditional reverse order were)

Third place in the "WHOLE WORLD" section" went to :-

Andrea Hirai from Milton Keynes  with  

 "That teaches me not to stick my oar in where it is not wanted "

Second place in the "WHOLE WORLD" section went to :-

Neil Hedge from Grimsby with   

"Anyone seen a Honda 500?, Red and White paintwork, chrome trim and a crash helmet on the handlebars"

AND THE

WINNER 

in 

"WHOLE WORLD" section is :-

Steve Frazer from Coventry with   

"Sorry mate I can definitely see the double yellow lines - so I have to write the ticket."

Each winner will be contacted by Email in the next day or two to ask for posting address for the prize - the better the position the better the prize.  Good big box of Chocolates for the World Winner as promised.

Well done to the winners - commiserations to the losers - more diversions coming soon on
