Being both blessed and cursed with a filthy mind, Ged, I have to ask how close to the knuckle - or how far beyond the boundaries of good taste - you\'re prepared to accept when it comes to those captions.

These captions have to be family friendly tempting as it may be to write otherwise.

Hello Ged,

- You mention you have 'hundreds of photos' but how many captions would we need to write if we win the bid?

- What kind of deadline will these captions carry?

Thanks.

Winning bidders will be invited to write as many captions as they can. There is no set number for submissions, as we will only pay for the captions we use.

thanks

Well that's telling me

I'm confused about the budget. You say that there are 100s of photographs waiting for a caption and willing to pay £25 per caption, but your budget is less than £250. Doesn't quite square up. Regards Roy

Hi Roy

It's a simples as this - i will send you lots of pictures - you can either send me one or one hundred ideas. If we pick one you will get
£25.00 if we pick £100 you will get £2500.00.
