Great job, guys! I was too busy shovelling snow to notice the contest notice. We still have plenty of time to enter, though with our weather. We just don't have a camera at the mo...you will have to imagine:)

WOW, Dave, coool! Was it buckets for the big parts and plastic cups for the turrets? That's really clever and I bet making it was a lot of fun! My boys loved that and they want to do it, too!

With half the country under snow, we thought it would be fun to throw down the gauntlet in a photo contest challenge to who can create the best snow or sand castle (depending on your latitude) .

The rules are pretty simple, make a castle/fort looking thing out of snow or sand, stick a Welsh flag on the top of it, take a picture and post it on this forum .

If anyone fancies taking up the position of adjudicating the contest in exchange for offering a prize to the winner it would be much appreciated .

Here are a couple of suggestions on which to model your castle. For the ambitious...Caernarfon Castle: -

For the less ambitious an early motte and bailey ( simply substitute flag for tree on top ):-
