Themes would be quite fun, but you'd need to announce the themes well in advance. Maybe the month before or the number of pictures may be limited.

I like varied and eclectic backgrounds. Nothing wrong with scenery and those do seem to get the votes, so others obviously think they're ok. But maybe a fun pic every third one would be nice? I like Polly Browns picture this month as it exudes happiness.

How about an Xmas special???? I'm sure Badman would enter for that?? He allegedly likes dressing up!!!!

:)
If only Polly Brown could see the happiness she and her sister have brought me, and it's not even snowed yet!! JIM

Z3's for me are a very happy memory. I can remember going through a particulary tough time. Not monetarily, but just pressure wise. I was living in hell!

I'd bought a brand new Z3 in the October and loved the car but did very few miles. I was having a very hard time with deadlines and hassle. I decided to take a day off in the January, which I hadn't had in months and drive to Norfolk just to get away from everyone. I didn't care really where I went or what I did. I just needed space and time to think. It will sound odd to many, but the pressures I found myself under were unbearable.

I parked on Brancaster Staithe "Hard" for about 40 minutes and just watched the weather and the tide roll in. I then drove to Burnham Market and continued to drive around Norfolk for about 2 hours. Roof up, but slowly gradually my mood turned.

By the time I came home I'd sorted out my problems and was in an altogether better place. The car lifted my spirits and made me realise that the world is not such a bad place. Z3's do that. They are an uplifting car.

Polly's pic reminds me of my children. They are exuberant and fun. They will laugh and giggle and lift your spirits. That is also the ethos of a Z3 and youngsters will be your next buyers. I believe they'll be the next VW camper style community. Affordable at the moment, but they will be rat rodded and played with. They will become cult as they are uplifting icons.

There are a lot of young people that are awful, but there are an awful lot more that are soooo good, kind and super people.

May I suggest you change your name to Cheerful Polly!

Hope you win Miss P!

:)

That's butt naked. And there are no stickers inside the boot lid so no redeeming features at all.=))

There is a sticker, it's white and attached to the boot carpet

Congrats to @Rev with his exceptionally colourful entry this month!

I'll be in touch to sort your tee-shirt, but @Aceman probably already has your details... ;)
