The Caption
Competition
Welcome to those of you with a competitive streak. On this page I propose
having a little competition. I present a photo and you provide suggestions
concerning what the caption should be.The rules are as follows:
- The competition will start and end at precise times ... which I'll
arbitrarily decide
- The winner is selected democratically ... by me
- And the prize is ... well, er, nothing at all, other than to see your
caption on this web page
- There is to be no ... more rules
Thanks to everyone for the recent captions. I'm never quite sure whether
to include the names of contributors. So if you would like to be referenced - by
your name or e-mail - the just let me know. OK Elaine? :-) So who's winning so
far - I think it is probably neck and neck - or should that be nape and nape -
between Sabrina and Elaine. So we better have another round hand't we (although
entries can be provided for earlier rounds) ...
And for Round 4 of the competition. A stylist is making
effective use of a her clippers ...

So far we have:
- My suggestion: Client says "Are you sure
there's no other way of removing these butterfly clips?"
So this is Round 3 of the competition. We have a stylist
sawing through a ponytail ...
So far we have:
- My suggestion: Client says "Now you did hear me
correctly didn't you. I did say just two inches"
- To which Elaine adds "Yes, I heard you. You
want your hair cut down to 2inches all over"
- And my friend Sabrina suggests the stylist is saying
"quick, pass another set of scissors! Her hair is
so thick it's broken these!"
- Or perhaps the stylist is saying when you've cut
that off get the clippers I want it really short"
- Alternatively "So you'd like to keep your long
hair forever? No problem." ... hmmm, not quite sure about that one
So this is Round 2 of the competition. Again we have two
barberettes doing their stuff ...
So far we have:
- My suggestion: Barberette on left says "Hmmm,
perhaps you better get my glasses"
- A reader suggests "The hair is coming off
pretty good,but the garish makeup appears to be permanent."
The first round of the competition shows one barberette's
haircut by another (and, yes, my friend out there the picture will stay!!)
So far we have:
- My suggestion: seated girl says "Mmmm, very
nice ... now sit down, it's YOUR turn!"
- While my friend Sabrina suggests "Ohmygod, how
short would you have cut it if I had lost the best!
- And Elaine suggests "So, what are we doing
today-- another short buzz cut? It has been 5 weeks since your last haircut."
- And another suggestion has been "Ah! So this is
what you mean by short haircut."
So, please send any suggestions to psharp55@altavista.net. And, if you have
a photo for a future competition then send that a long too!
