Little Competition......:-)

Postby petekd » Thu Jul 23, 2009 2:03 pm

Right lads, what the hell is this? It was taken by Rampent Wreckfish (JP Molloy) a few days ago from a pier in Galway. Now, we know what it is, but do you???? A bit of fun, for an aside and to add a bit of spice to proceedings, I am prepared to put up a prize of a DVD Player for the first correct answer out of the hat.

If I happen to think you have cheated in any way by contacting the JP fella then your entry will be discarded. If I think JP has collaborated in the cheating, I'm gonna set my avatar and signature to one of those lovely semi naked pics of him taken in Bantry during the recent LMS leg..... :lol:

NB, anyone saying rockling is gonna get banned... Dammit, just remembered I no longer have the power..... :D !

Right, it was about 5 inches long, Red and Yellow in colour and taken from a pier in Galway by JPs usual methods. Sorry about the picture quality but it was popped in a freezer for a day or two whilst he performed all the necessary to identify it. Off you go folks, closing date for this is 12PM Monday.....

Right, it was about 5 inches long, Red and Yellow in colour and taken from a pier in Galway by JPs usual methods.

I had those same symptoms when I worked abroad for a few years in a nightclub,

It's very sore and needs looking at by a Doctor that's what it is!

:D

If you look at the picture from a distance it looks like B.A. Barrakus from the A Team. :lol:
UP THE DEISE!!!!!!!

If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.

Actually now that I look at it more closely looks like the last female ( And I use that term lightly) you were with.
