He's right about one thing, though - the Inveresk Street Ingrate, I mean - the normblog Polling Organization (all two of us) have one hell of a job on our hands now counting up the votes. Please show patience, and even forbearing.
Thanks to everyone who entered. If you were just on the point of putting in your entry when the deadline passed, or delayed by unforeseen occurrences round where you live, please feel free to submit a late one. While the nPO does its work, extra submissions are still welcome. And you don't want to have missed the party.
