A mole in the post office!
Any idea who they're working for?

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Will someone please confirm that it is actually the month of May?
This weather is stupid. Cold and wet. More like an Autumn day

And the trees are sweetly blooming,
Where the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather..."

I've just knocked up a very quick entry to the Vision Direct jingle competition. I don't think I stand much chance since it consist of me singing out of tune some silly lyrics that I made up in less than 30 minutes about aliens with dodgy eyesight! 
Still, I have won 4 competitions in the past by doing comic entries which beat all the serious ones.
If by some miracle I make the shortlisted entries, my recording will appear on YouTube and the public will get the chance to vote on their preference. If so, I might ask for a few favours...

You not said if you were shortlisted in the short story competition you entered. Or how you did.

Er... Not quite sure what you mean there!
The judges come up with a shortlist and put those entries up on YouTube. We were only asked to send in audio recordings so I assume that the audio will be played over a Vision Direct advert or photograph?
Which short story was that? I did win such competition a year or two back.
Oh, hang on - I know the one you mean... That was a proper short story. I didn't manage to write one that I thought was good enough so I didn't enter in the end.
The 4 competitions that I have won over the years have all had very limited wordcounts. That makes them both easier AND harder. There aren't so many words to come up with, but there aren't many available to say everything that needs to be said!

I should add that the winning recording will not itself be used in the marketing campaign that will follow. Part of the prize is to go to a recording studio to 'direct' the pro recording. (I assume that will consist of the winner saying what they think, and that being ignored by the people who know what they are doing! )

Yes, that's the one. I tried a few ideas but didn't like them enough to continue.
