I’ve had a note from Brian David asking me to give a shout-out for the latest CheerReader competition. So here it is:

Win yourself €100…

… just by writing the most amusing short story for the next CheerReader competition.

The closing date is midnight on September 30^th .

Maximum story length is 1,500 words.

Theme – anything you like, so long as it makes us laugh.

Fee: €5 per story.

For the full list of rules and regulations, visit http://www.cheerreader.co.uk, where you can also read the winning entries and runners-up from the previous competitions to get some idea of the flavour.

So, join in, get writing and have fun.

CheerReader – “wagging the funny, making you smile”

And if you fancy a quick giggle I suggest you nip straight over to the CheerReader site – there are some very funny pictures of our favourite politicians with rather clever captions!
