Fortnightly Writing Competition: Cast Away! Winners Announced!

[Baron]

I accept your concession speech, Ponch old fellow.  And let me assure you that after the rancour of the campaign I am willing to let bygones be bygones and by-heres be by-heres (etc.).  I am magnanimous in that way.   

At any event, I thought word for word you'd beaten me (I was just lucky in my prolificness  ).  Lost sock... brilliant!  Do you draw your inspiration from hallucinogenic drug trips, or do you get it from real life?  (or both?  ).  Anyhow, congratulations to all entrants, and standby for another topic shortly.
