Woo-hoo! Thank you all for the votes. I'm glad I hoked that one out straight away as I always forget about this. The photo was from my winter Alpine course in Chamonix the other year - preparing to abseil down for our first ice-climb.
Ah, such power I have choosing the next topic...muahahahaha!!!

I was thinking something wintery, but the snow's only just begun so may be better in a month or two.
Going all abstract instead... december's theme will be... "Brubaker"

Say the syllables, check out the movie/actor... many possibilities and tenuous links so we should all have something diverse to submit  ;D

well done TC, got my vote  :) , i thought last months title was tricky, lenny we were expecting something dramatic from you, anyone who picks the title "extreme" should have something up there back catalogue other than a guy sleeping  ;D
think outside, no box required

All the real stuff I have is with me in it. Plus I know you can't tell but being that high was extreme. Craig deserved the win.

That is one hard subject matter  >:(

Unless you all want a change it stays. You can discuss (the myriad) ideas amongst yourselves but I think I've said too much already.  ;D

Bah, alright. The december theme is "Food and Drink"

Bru... brew... drinks
baker... bake... food

I also thought you could get something to do with (red)fords, a ward(en), or even a prison ...for the Urbexers

I'll get me 6 thinking hats  ;)

Awwwwwwwwwwww... you shouldn't have given in.  They could have researched, and sure, if they got it all wrong it wouldn't have mattered.  It's all to do with individual interpretation.  I've downloaded the Movie an everything (Legally), but I got the Brew and Baker bit in the end  ;)

Anyways... Now that you all know the theme for this month I want to see a bumper batch of entries... It is the season for Food and Drink after all.

PS, I don't want 24 close up photo's of our dinner from the Christmas camp though  :D

Thanks for that, TC. I will try to enter that. The NI Wild Christmas Camp & Dinner should be a good location for this theme....

There is a pub in Dundalk called Brubakers. http://www.brubakers.ie/
