No more would indeed be best... We don't need no stinking contests! August 15, 2018 We Don't Need No Stinking Contests Contest By John lawless N/A

Contests are not for everyone. Some rather just write what they want and when they want, That is fine too. Others need to incentive, that is fine too. I for one think its nice that we have a choice. gl in the contest, dear Susan.

Thanks, Virginia. Me too. If I didn't like them, I wouldn't have a problem not participating and letting others enjoy them.

Bravo Susan very well said I LOVE your take on the contest theme. If you read the blogs the ones who 'do down' the contests rarely even enter them and just try to spoil it for those who do enjoy the challenges set:-( hugs jan xx
