Great idea, but I don't remember the existing TDK inlay card looking like "insert Roddy H's effort here". I reckon you should use the "then and now" photomontage that recently graced the homepage with two stick insects and Morrissey badly scribbled in, to make it look like me, Huggan and God (sorry - Bod) were there. And if I win, I don't need a copy of the tape cos I've already got one. But I haven't listened to it yet.

Fantastic New 3rd Prize - A Trip to Paris!!!
 
Enter the sleeve design competition and - if you can avoid coming first or second  - you could be the lucky winner of a 4-day trip to romantic Paris.
 
Yus - Paris, not Harris. And France the country, not the baker's.
 
See the Competition page for more details....
 
This has been made possible thanks to the generosity of Guireans sponsors Struik Lucky Dodgy Scratchcards PLC

A trip to Paris? Sod that! Especially when the alternative is £250 in Argos vouchers!! They can be used in the Crofters, can't they. Think of all the good padded shirts that would buy. My entry is on its way.And anyway, if the lord had wanted us to travel to heathen foreign countries he wouldn't have built the Minch.

Sadly, cove, the way these things work, the alternative of the £250 Argos vouchers redeemable at the Crofters will not be open to you. It'll be the trip to Paris or nothing, so you'd better hope that Dior or Chanel are doing a line in bonnes chemises paddeds et bottines d'Arniche this season.
 
Assuming, of course, that your effort - which is now up on the Competition page - proceeds to wins the coveted 3rd place.
 
In a field of 2, it would require a truly special quality to win 3rd prize, but I think your entry may just possibly have what it takes... we'll see...

Dunky's effort is very clever. It's very good. I think that Dunky must be very clever.

Yus. He's an IT professional, you know. So you'd think he could have managed to superimpose a pair of comedy specs.

It was an MSP who did it, what did you expect?

An MSP? Hope it wasn't Alasdair "How do you spell my name again?" Morrison (Western Isles, Lab).

And your "minnion's" poor spelling seems to be rubbing off on you.

Sometime soon, I guess. I thought maybe heycove was going to send in a masterpiece (or mistresspiece)  to surpass the pathetic efforts submitted so far. And I forgot about it.
 
Anyway, why are you asking, Thespian? You haven't sent anything in at all, and yourself with all that time to spare while you're "resting"...
 
Why not try for the scratchcard trip to Paris? You could do the muso thing - go busking in the Metro, then make a pilgrimage to the Pere Lachaise cemetry to offer a sacrificial tin of paraffin at Charlie Morrison's grave...

Ah, you see I dont have much time on my hands because I'm not resting right now.  And seeing as how I've retired the muso Metro-busking thing's not too appealing. But if I could get my hands on a scanner I might be able to put together some kind of effort. Or lack of effort, perhaps.

Roddy Huggan must win! You'd be surprised how like the real thing that picture is. Can I vote for Roddy again?
