Not afraid so no need to hide! What is a counch?

A conch shell with cushions.

Just confirming that this will be the prize:

Hmmm, interesting. Looks like betting closes with this post. Not many bidders, but those who did have a good chance of winning.

 

[JohnK]

Gentlemen, no more bets please! Good luck to all!

As mentioned by Yada Yada, and since I cannot change OP or heading, there is a prize of a collector's edition Virgin Blue cap for the winning prediction.

Disappointing that a lot of the regular Playground visitors did not register a prediction.

Damn it - I held fire a little too long.

At least you can't be accused of being premature!

Sorry oz_mark it doesn't always pay to wait.

With a mini-frenzy of posting today, I may hit the 1,000 mark a lot earlier than expected. Your guess is looking good, JohnK. Unless I take ill and disappear for a few weeks.

Could this be a mini tumultuous Tuesday? We have not had one of those yet!

We have a winner! Congratulations to JohnK.

I'll get your Virgin Blue cap when I'm next at SYD T2. You'll need to PM your mailing address to me.

Now, given that you have not yet flown Virgin Blue, I think you should boldly wear your new cap next time you fly QF. :shock: (Apologies for the split infinitive).

Congratulations on 1,000 posts Peter!

I have enjoyed everyone of your posts, it is good to see someone with some humour on this board and hope you have many more posts in store for us all.

I won with a guess 11 days after your 1,000th post. :shock: Well only 4 people guessed which makes it a little easier.

P.S. No need to spend money on a Virgin Blue cap as a prize for this thread. If you had a freebie for being a loyal DJ customer now that would have been different....
