But you’ll discover that only nine of the words can be found in the grid. The other one isn’t there. So, to enter the competition, all you need to do is make a note of the missing word and email it to:
allanfrewin@btinternet.com
Please put SARGASSO SKIES COMPETITION in the Subject Box of the email.
If you are under the age of 14, you will need to get the permission of a parent or guardian before you enter the competition, because if you are a winner, you will need to give us your home address, and we don't want you handing over personal details like that without a parent or guardian knowing about it! You can tell them from us that we will definitely not be posting any of your personal information online - it will all be kept strictly confidential!
The closing date for entries is 30th April 2012, so get busy and send us that missing word so we can let you have one of those rare and desirable signed copies of Sargasso Skies. The winners will be chosen at random by having Trundle climb into a big sack and then picking out the first ten responses that get stuck onto his prickles. He will be blindfolded before he gets into the sack, so there’s no chance for any cheating.
Keep your eye on this page – we’re going to come up with more competitions in the future. More signed books will be given out as prizes, and we also plan to give the very luckiest winners of our most tricky and brain-scrambling competitions the opportunity to own one of the hand-coloured pieces of artwork that can be found on this website - signed by Gary Chalk and Allan Frewin Jones themselves! If you win one of these, you will have something that no one else in the entire Universe owns.
