Caption This: #652
To vote for the captions you like, please use the 👍🏻 “thumbs-up”.
The winner will be the caption that has the most 👍🏻 votes. The OP will edit the heading at the end of the challenge, to announce the winner in the heading.
Due to the reduced functionality and clunkiness of the new look boards, we must rely on an honour system whereby members don’t vote for their own captions.
In the event of a tie, the OP will decide the winner.
The winner will start the new round.

·2 weeks agoThanks everyone. Just posted a new pic.
Shame about the mess caused by the changes though - I definitely would have 'voted' for Twinnie's Princess Margaret caption .... if I had seen it.🤓 And I reckon others would too. I'm still chuckling 😄

OP2 weeks agoTwyngwyn, your last caption about Princess Margaret wasn't there when I tried to post the winner. It said a post had been made 14 minutes before, but wasn't showing it.

·2 weeks ago · EditedNo, it’s not your fault
It is the fault of the idiotic set on up on here
And the system being so caught up in protecting scammers spamming
It happened once before on a caption this and I had to ask the mods to unhide that too
Couldn’t code an automatic garage door that mob
