All great things must come to an end, and now I bring you evidence that average things come to an end as well.

From that we can conclude that things, be they great or otherwise, must come to an end thus making a mockery of a much used and loved saying in the English language.

Next week I shall tackle 'A bird in the bush is worth two in the hand' although I feel that disproving it could be tough as both options have their appeal.

Here is the last STB picture with the ball put back in place.

Only two people got the 5 point grid this week (A2) with the happy chappies being PraetorianGuard and sweet waffle.

Seven of you got one point for being withinone square of the 5 point square - they were Geezer, jezza, Mad Mac, maddoo, midlandblue, rahuldotchelsea, sals.

So we have a winner and that winner is.

My thanks to everyone who took part - soon / in the future / at some point there will be a new competition - don't wait up!

PraetorianGuard - PM me your name and address and I will get a prize sent your way.

Oops, forgot to enter the last one.

Congratulations, PraetorianGuard! That Spot the Ball lark is harder than it looks.

Living in America might cause an issue, but I'll still have the bragging rights for my mental abilities.

Cheers for your efforts Loz, same again next year?

Enjoyed the game a lot. Thanks loz and congrats PG...I pushed you all the way.

I'm happy with third. Thanks for putting this together Loz.

I'm so proud of my 15th place, although it's fair to say my grid choices were prompted more by despair than insight.

Thanks Loz! Oh were it only the off-season again :P

Last place...

Cheers for your efforts Loz, same again next year?

Probabbly something different next year, especially as it will be a World Cup summer

Great entertainment Loz, nice one mate

Yeah, great work setting this up, loz. Did you actually make the pictures yourself or did you have a set of pre-made grids? It looks pretty difficult...

I also enjoyed your banter before introducing each one. :(

Mod did all the work with the pictures and I maintained the scores and the league tables so creditfor the complex stuff goes to Mod.

Ah, well a hearty :( to both of you.

Wonderful as always Loz. Had great fun.

Cheers to you both for giving us something to whittle the minutes away

A fun competition - thanks to the both of you!
