I received a wonderful gesture from our Gold Fevered wonderful poet, Terry Piggott, (who, being a humble chap, will probably be unimpressed that I'm broadcasting his generosity here.)
The Postman just delivered to me a copy of Terry's magnificent new book "The Call Of The Outback" that he offered to me as one of the prizes for The Copper Croc Awards. it is wonderfully illustrated; a truly beautiful book, and I highly recommend it to all true poetry lovers. Thank you so much Terry. The winner of this prize will be a lucky person indeed.
As the 2nd and 3rd prizes in this comp are a Certificate and other poets' books and/or CD's it would be most appreciated if a few of my poet mates could spare a book or CD to award to the prizewinners. I totally rely upon the entry/critique fees to fund the $200 first prize and trophy, administration, and postage etc (and that gets a little 'nail biting' at times. Lol) If just a few of you could spare a book or CD, my address is PO Box 367 Theodore QLD 4719.
Past contributors have also been generous in this regard: Manfred Vijars, Carol Heuchan, and especially David Campbell, (and God forgive me if I've missed anyone else...my brain cells aren't what they used to be ) I thank you all again for your generosity.
And thanks again Terry. My hearty congratulations on producing such a marvellous new book.
Cheeeers.

Re: THANK YOU Terry Piggott
Hearty congratulations Terry on the publication of what looks to be a fabulous book - and good on you for your generosity too - an extra incentive for us all to enter the Copper Croc.
Of course there is always the chance that you will win a copy of your own book!!
Cheers

Re: THANK YOU Terry Piggott
hey Shelley...THAT has happened before.
My scanner does not really do Terry's book justice. It's a corker book.

Good on you Terry. If the content is as colourful, and I know it will be, as the cover page it will be as good as gold.
