I love promotions.
Taking steps to reward the community is the way to go, everyone wins. Sponsors should feel very privledged to be endorsed here they have the chance of gaining market share here more than many other places, their early support wont go un noticed nor without long term divedend.. they deserve such for their support.
Your presence for all of us is a wonderful reward and to add prizes, great, there is nothing like the expectation of wining a prize..why do we continue to buy lotto tickets.. we enjoy spending those never to be won dollars as much as real ones.

We waited...I was going to make sure you got in a cab back to the airport.

Tonight's draw was a fun gathering. I think there may be a few more Full Moon catchups. Great to put a face to more fellow IIS members.

Mike is...well, he was heading off to take pics around the Harbour when we left. No sense of priorities. There was no laptop at the pub, no wireless access, no webcam, no live draw for everyone around Australia / NZ to view.

But there are winners, and Mike will reveal them in due course.

It was a fantastic turnout at the pub for the draw.
There was between 300-400 people, we hardly had room to move.
Pitty they weren't part of our group.
Just Greg, Mike, Chris (33South) and myself.

Mike was holding the box of entries while Greg pulled out the lucky names.
I was taking out of focus photos and Chris was clapping at each entry drawn out.
It was so intense.


After the draw Mike and I went walkabout around the habour foreshore to see if we could get a photo for this months photo challange.
It's a wonder we didn't get arrested.

Who Won, the suspense is killing me. This is the second competition I have entered since winning $20,000 on Radio 104.5 STAR FM two years ago. Gave half to my wife for Uni studies(Master's Degree in Enviromental Science, so far )and the rest on a well celebrated birthday in the Cook Islands, absolute decadence, what a beautiful place and the natives are so friendly!!!!!
OOhh how could I forget the night skies were a delight, 9 clear nights out of 12 such an unpolluted view.
