    1000th post beater freebie.

    Just as an acknowledgement towards the tradition of the 1000 post giveaway, and as a small nod to the forum & its members in general (from which I have learned much, and continue to learn every time I'm on here) I'd like to offer up this Citizen bm6400.
    What you see is what the winner will get - it's not mint but working fine and not a terrible watch by any means.
    If you would like it then please post, what you consider, to be your best photo, that has been taken by yourself - this can be of absolutely anything (within reason: best keep it clean please!) and I'll ask my eldest (8yrs old) which one he likes the best.
    If the winner wants to stick £20 into the fundraiser then that'd be a bonus but it's not a stipulation.
    I'll ask my lad to choose on Boxing Day, so you have until then to post it up.



    I must point out that I'll post the watch off to the winner after all the festive celebrations are past (both Christmas & New Year), so it'll be sent the start of 2017.

    Lovely gesture mate, (and a great watch). I'm off to have a dig through Photobucket.

    I'm rubbish at taking photos... but thinking back to when I was 8yrs old, I wanted to be a Red Arrows pilot...
    So, I'm going for content rather than technical ability !

    This would seem appropriate for an 8year old 😁

    Not sure this will appeal to an eight year old lad but I was always very happy with this:



    My twin girls at a few days old. They'll be 8 next March. Don't know where it's gone!

    Very sweet.
    Am not sure what OP'S lad will choose but this is the winner for me.

    This isn't the family on the beach, although there is a certain resemblance.

    Thank you. Right place right time with an iPhone - which, after years of playing with proper cameras, makes me smile.

    That's a nice gesture,



    I took this one a couple of years ago.
    Not up to the standard of the other pictures on the thread but I have always liked it.

    My 8yr old has studied my iPad for about an hr on his own and he's decided he like this one the best, which isn't the one I thought he'd plump tbh but you just never can tell.
