Last-minute entry steals the plaudits in our snowman competition.
As regular readers will be aware, we attempted last week to make the best of the terrible weather that had brought work to a standstill across the UK, Europe and on into many parts of the US by challenging demolition workers to create a snowman.
Well, thanks to generous offers from two readers, we were inundated with entries for what (ironically) turned out to be a hotly contested affair. As arbiters of all things snowy, we were looking for a mix of style and substance, size and stature and, ideally, something of a demolition theme.
So we’re delighted to announce that our winning snowman, which was in fact that last entry received before the contest closed on Friday night, was from Barry Morgan in Faversham, Kent. As you can see below, not only does Barry’s entry display some superb snow sculpting facial features, it is the only entry we received which would get past an HSE workwear inspection.
Our congratulations go to Barry while £100 (donated by Button-Linguard’s Roy Gibbons and a mysterious benefactor known only as GoldenGirl) is heading for the Cancer Research charity.
