    Oh my, what an AMAZING contest!!! So sad now that I missed all this while I was away from the forum. All the entries are looking absolutely fabulous, and there's just so much fascinating info and background info here about places from around the world! 8)

    A BIG thank you to Hidehi for sharing your winnings with me and to Gr1zzly for delivering them! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: Congratulations again for placing third in the residential lot section and first with your presentation!

    Thank you Terry and Blacksheba for hosting this fantastic contest, as well as all the wonderful sponsors and judges who made all this possible!!!

    Terry and Sharon thank you so very much for hosting this fabulous contest!! It has been an absolutely amazing journey! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

    I've had a blast from a laid back start to a panic stricken finish and to have my presentation find your approval and my 'Painted Ladies' reaching a placement has been such an uplifting and awesome experience ... I really can't thank you and all the other wonderful judges enough.

    My sincere thank you also goes to all the sponsors who will now have the big task to make the distribution of our winnings possible! :D

    Gift shopping was lots of fun :D ... but I must admit my head is spinning right now and I can only hope I haven't overspent. :roll:
    Ami my dear sponsor I know that wishlists are constantly changing so I hope the numbers I dotted down are still correct by the time you will start the deliveries, if not I hope it will not be too much trouble for you to find alternative gifts. Thank you ever so much for making this possible!! :mrgreen: ... and if there should be any sp left over I trust you will be able to find one more deserving person to give another gift to.

    Thanks everyone for the kind words about my sister. She is on the mend and should be out of hospital in a week so we are all really happy.

    Thanks Terry for another great competition. I was amazed by the level of all the entries. Thanks to the judges and sponsors too. Without you all it couldn't have happened!

    First off, I'm very sorry to hear about your sister being in Intensive Care Walkingstick, but glad to know that she's now at home and on the mend.

    I've been a little MIA from the forums, so I'm sorry it's taken me so long to notice that you shared some of your winnings with me, but thank you so very much, I really appreciate it. And thank you to gr1zzly for gifting.

    And a big congrats for your 3rd place win on your Dubrovnik community lot, I thought it was very expertly done and you very much deserved the win.

    And congrats to all of the other winners. I would have liked to have entered this amazing contest, but have had a lot going on in my life these past 6 months and didn't think I could devote the time to such a huge undertaking. But great contest TnT_Terry and such an amazing prize pool!!!

    Thank you gr1zzly and Ernesa!

    I'm happy to say that my sister is back home and should make a full recovery. Thanks to everyone for the kind words.

    So sorry to hear about your sister being in the hospital hon, but am so glad she was able to go home. I hope her road to recovery goes smoothly and she gets back to her normal self and a happy life as soon as possible. Will keep her in my thoughts and prayers :wink:

    Oh my goodness, I just logged in to discover more gifts in my inbox from aminovas (via walkingstick) so I came here because I was confused. I see now that aminovas was doing her gifting even though I already received them from gr1zzly. So thank you so much aminovas for the surprise gifts, but it doesn't feel right that I'm getting more gifts. :oops: :oops: :oops: Thanks again walkingstick for your generosity in sharing your winnings with us!!!! :):):)

    ATTENTION Matteo0


    Please post your desires for your winnings of 2,700sps, I stopped by your wl and it seems to be empty, so if you own the store and wish to have others gifted, then please post links. I have tried repeatedly to contact you through emails and posting your simpage status to no avail, so I am giving this one more week as it's been over a month since the winners were announced. If you do not respond within a week your prize will be forfeited, I really hate doing this but I can't spend anymore time trying to get hold of you. I thank you again for your submission to this amazing journey around the world, here's to hoping you answer.

    Oh I am so happy you finally posted, and yeah I had a feeling something was up with your emails as I was getting links sent to me by your account. Just glad Rose found you and you have posted your wishes. I will gift these soon as it allows me to, seeing as the sight is wonky now due to maintenance. But rest assured I will send them all out. Hope you enjoy all your new build toys...squishy hugz
