The poll for the July competition "Crew at Work - in Uniform" is open and ready for you to vote for your three favourite pictures. 

There are some fabulous photos - thank-you to every who participated.

[Isabelle Prondzynski]

36 photos this time -- great thanks to all who contributed!

We hope for many votes, to make this competition extra special for the crew members.

[Lynda Bradford]

This is a particularly special theme as it is crew at work.  It was difficult to choose only three favourites but I have voted. 

[Peter Mugridge]

Whadd'ya' mean I can only vote for three of them...?! 


Voted... 

[Isabelle Prondzynski]

This is becoming very interesting.

We have 36 pictures. 4 people have already voted, in other words we have 12 votes. These 12 votes have gone to 12 pictures with one vote each : not a single picture has more than one vote.

If we now want to make sure that each picture in the poll has one vote, we still need 24 more votes, which means 8 more voters please!

Keep those votes coming!

In other words, 17 photos with one vote each and 2 photos with two votes each.

There are still another 17 photos that have not yet received a vote, and plenty to go for!

[Lynda Bradford]

We are half way through the month with only eleven people voting for their favourite photos for the July competition.  We need lots more people to vote as there are many photos with the same number of votes. 

Enjoy viewing these fabulous pictures, log into the forum and vote for your three favourites. 

[June Ingram]

Currently 13 voters. Please do vote - just two weeks left to vote.

[Isabelle Prondzynski]

Votes are still very evenly spread, with no clear leaders emerging so far. This shows the excellence of the photos entered, they are all getting votes.

Enjoy the photos and add your own preference!

[June Ingram]

14 voters so far this month. Be sure to vote as it is easy for the month to go by quickly. There are so many wonderful photos that it is difficult to choose only three. But it is well worth the time spent communing with QE2 and crew members ! It brings back “The Olden Days” !

nice set of photos there,  voted for 1 of the engine room photos , obviously posed (why not), but those white overalls don't get that dirty by themselves, good men there, dare I say it (grease monkeys----in hushed tones)

[June Ingram]

Currently, 17 voters have made their selection. Please do vote. There are a couple of days left to do so.
