Thank you so much everyone :D

All the photos were so great with lots of lovely hams. I found it even harder to choose than normal now that we only have one vote :mad:

There were some wonderful entries this month. So many good ones but Boris made me laugh every time I saw it, so ideal to open up HC. Well done BP!

Congrats to BP and the totally adorable Boris looking so apathetic. What a lovely and funny picture! I'm sure that he will gain some interest and enthusiasm once he gets his well-deserved celebratory treats, lol. Boris is such a cutiepie, and I will be very excited to see him every time I log onto HC this month. Great job to the winners and all of the other contestants for such great pics. I loved all of them! :)
