gorjuss awards title

Well we have 10 awards tonight to get through, and then we have an overall winner of the week who will win a Keychain of their choice… plus some little extras thrown in from around the gorjuss office.. No not Kismet…yes maybe a suzette or two…

As this is our first ever award ceremony, I shall take the time to explain the competitions so that you can understand how they work. All Challenges run from Saturday – Friday… so 7 days of Fun… On A Saturday the judges pick a winner for each challenge… in the event of a tie Suzanne and myself make the casting vote. Once all challenges are concluded Suzanne and myself pick an overall winner from the weeks winners to win the Weekly prize…

Right I hope that clears things I’m just going to nip away for a quick costume change for the first award….
