Any reason why I am being told I cannot upload any photo for the contest?.... Or will the contest only accept three photos in total? (I haven't downloaded any picture yet !) ..... or are we having internet problems again?.... Thanks for checking into this.. !

Congratulations to Egyptophle and to Horus.

Well done to all who took part. It's always interesting to see things through the eye, or should that be lens, of others.

Horus hasn't been to Luxor for 3 or 4 years, so my guess is, it's that croc' from Kings Island / Movenpick ? :tk

No I think we can throw that rule out of the window now (best to keep things simple), so yes you can take part and win again :D
