Picture this…
A stern fellow sits in fine academic regalia, staring out at all who pass on level 2 of the Central Library. Who is he, what is he thinking and what is he up to? As you are all sitting most precariously on the edges of your seats, breaching many health and safety regulations, I feel I must share.
The ‘Who’ can be answered easily; the stern fellow in question is none other than the esteemed Cantabrian, James Hight. Okay, not him exactly, I’m talking about his portrait.
But as for the ‘Thinking’ and the ‘Up to’, well, those are harder questions.
Here is your challenge, should you choose to accept it. Write a caption that might go beneath James Hight’s portrait and enter it in one of the following categories below.
Category 1: Library Loveliness – any caption library-related.
Category 2: Te Reo Mâori – any caption accepted as long as it’s in Te Reo Mâori.
Category 3: Realms of Randomness – any content accepted whatsoever
And if you needed a sweetener, there will be prizes of such amazing awesomeness they would cause your knees to quiver if I was to divulge what they were. So I won’t. Not now. Maybe later.
Entries can be submitted now until 30th August and our panel of judges will decide on the winner of each category in 1st week September.
Good luck and have fun!
