You've got to be in it to win it

Something I never expected rec'd this email today but unfortunately I have a wedding to go too that day

Dear Trevor,

I'm pleased to advise your astrophotography entry in Astrofest 2009
has been selected and is in the top three entries.

Congratulations !

The awards event for the astrophotography competition will take place
at Astrofest, this Saturday 28 November, in the main building at
Curtin Uni Stadium.

Please check in with any of the staff in the main building, and ask
for Pete Wheeler (before 6pm). Awards are expected to be presented
about 6.30pm.

Once again, congratulations on your achivement, and I look forward to
meeting you,

Best wishes

Good on ya Trevor

With your confirmation, together with mine, we know who two of the top 3 are, I wonder who the 3rd is ... I think I can guess, but won't jump to conclusions just yet

Well done Trevor and Roger... and the 3rd person.

I received a top5 email from John, I guess it means 5th or 4th?
I'm stoked to be even mentioned in a first ever photography competition I've entered
